This Florida Firehouse Subs Serves Hot Sandwiches With A Side Of Jacksonville History

The brisket on this sub gets smoked for 16 hours before it ever meets a roll. Then it gets steamed, piled high, and topped with melted cheddar and barbecue sauce.

We went to Eastport on Saturday night and visited an unnamed restaurant that had a bar on its roof. We ordered two Chopin vodka martinis with a lemon twist. When we got them, they were light in the glass as to taste and volume. We asked the bartender what his pour was, and he said 1.5 ounces. OK, then we got the bill: $36 for both.

Aiming to fill a void, NY kosher-style deli debuts in Jacksonville

Aiming to fill a nearly two decade-long dining void, a highly anticipated New York kosher-style deli is ready to debut its authentic scratch-made pastrami, corned beef, Matzah ball soup, latkes, bagels and more in Jacksonville. Bell & Layton's Delicatessen and Provisions celebrates its grand opening Sunday, Nov. 8 at 10140 San Jose Blvd., in Mandarin. The deli and bakery from co-owners Brian Bell and William Layton is believed to be the first-of-its-kind in Jacksonville since the legendary Worman's Bakery & Deli shut its doors in August 2009 after more than 85 years. "We really wanted a place for people to come and taste the food that they had at their grandmother's. We wanted that sense of community. All the dishes that we have, kind of bring you back there when you walk through our door," Layton told the Times-Union. Bell traced their inspiration, in part, to Worman's.
