Grabbing a donut, muffin, bagel, or coffee on your way to or from work can be a nice way to give yourself a sweet treat or pick me up without spending much money. Unfortunately, a Florida restaurant in this genre was recently closed down. I frequently write about restaurant closures, and I can honestly say that I have never seen a violation like the one that caused the closure.

Some people will tell you that Florida doesn't have outstanding pizza joints because of its water. However, Floridians who only have Florida pizza restaurants to patronize seem to enjoy their pies just fine. Go out to any decent pizza eatery on any given weekend, and you'll likely have to wait.

Diners can be a lovely place to enjoy a meal. Not only do you get to eat comfort food, but it's served up with a retro vibe, and it's usually inexpensive. Unfortunately, a diner in this genre was shut down for the second time via state inspection, but it is reopened.

Do you wonder what that nasty smell that has been cropping up all over Denver is?. I know. Denver has lots of nasty smells, including urine and feces in the alleys.
