Fried Catfish Has Come Off The Fryer At Goblin Market’s Neighbor, Beef O’Brady’s? No, Ma Barker’s

Some places in Florida trade on beaches, and some trade on a bit of outlaw history. Out in the quiet stretches of Marion County, one small roadside hangout leans fully into the second option. Wanted posters line the walls, old newspaper clippings tell a wild story, and a real 1930s...

‘Super slammed’: Brewing Thoughts sees surge after Streatery opens

Less than a week after the city’s long-awaited Streatery opened, downtown coffee shop Brewing Thoughts has already felt the effects, with its co-owner describing business as “super slammed.” With a blanket of stars overhead and strands of dimly lit orange and blue string lights illuminating the plaza, several Gainesville city commissioners, officials and Alachua County Commissioner Marihelen Wheeler cut the ribbon Nov. 6, ending a more than six-year wait for a project first conceived during the COVID-19 pandemic to expand outdoor dining. The Streatery, which stretches along Southwest First Avenue between Southwest Second Street and South Main Street, converts the former roadway into a walkable pedestrian plaza with overhead string lighting, new landscaping, enhanced tree canopies and upgraded stormwater drainage infrastructure. Construction crews began fencing off sections of Southwest First Avenue on April 13. The Nov. 6 ribbon cutting marked the end of nearly seven months of construction and the completion of another effort to create more pedestrian-friendly spaces downtown. Businesses along the Streatery include The Bull, Loosey’s, Capone’s, Nest + Nibble, Lor Kebab and Brewing Thoughts. Brewing Thoughts co-owner Titan Wojciak, a UF electrical engineering student, told The Sun on Nov. 9 that he and his girlfriend and fellow

8 Florida BBQ Places That Are Too Good To Ignore

Florida might be famous for its fresh seafood and key lime pie, but its barbecue scene deserves some serious attention, too. We’re talking juicy brisket smoked low and slow, fall-off-the-bone ribs, pulled pork sandwiches piled high, and Southern sides so good you’ll want seconds. Some of the best...

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. Steam is the trick behind the hot specialty subs. The meats and cheeses get a quick blast of pressurized steam before they go onto a separately toasted roll.

Drinks were too expensive at Eastport restaurant

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.
