Yes folk’s it’s Monday and that means back to work (for most of us) but it shouldn’t mean you can not go out!

Here are some Monday options:

The Cubby Hole has “boxers & briefs Monday’s” yes those that wear either get 2-4-1 drinks 9pm till 2am!

Matty’s On The Drive has “Bartender’s Choice $3.00 cocktails!”starting @ 10pm

Dudes On The Beach has $1.00 well drinks (who can beat that?) 9pm-2am and Amateur $250. dancer contest!

LaBamba in Oakland Park is so famous for their Monday’s and Margarita’s!

Have fun and remember to not drink and drive!

If your sweet tooth gets the best of you like mine does, then seeing a new business open like Go Nuts About Yogurt on Wilton Drive seems likes good bet. With its location at 2207 Wilton Drive in Wilton Manors it should generate interest.

Once you enter your instantly enticed by the “sweet toppings bars” that are the focal point and in front of the yogurt flavor assortment wall. The color of the walls and décor are soft and almost Willy Wonka meets Sesame Street, think fun and bright. There’s even a back “hang out” lounge that is suppose to get kind of festive later at night as bar hoppers stop in for treat.

Next you’re most likely going to have to decide on a wide range of fruity to some curious flavors (pistachio to red velvet cake). Oh, and yes they have too many to list and something for everyone. I chose the red velvet cake which was suppose to be low in fat? Let’s just say after I loaded it down with several toppings I’m sure it wasn’t too healthy but isn’t that part of fun?

Finally after my visit I left curing my sweet tooth, at least for the moment. Would I go back? You might ask…most definitely. The service was good and helpful and it adds a nice change from the surrounding clubs and bars. So the next time you’re craving something sweet go ahead I say you only live once.

Well it seems like these days a new restaurant opens up every other week, some good, some not. Our taste buds led us to this week’s review of the new Pinche Taqueria located at 2045 Wilton Drive in Wilton Manors. With this location smack dab in the heart of Wilton Manors and it’s eye catching store front (service garage door that opens up and splits the inside from the out that really capitalizes and expands the patio feel, and the curiosity walking or driving by). Aside from the unique curbside appeal the look inside continues with a slight Tex-Mex meets Tijuana vibe but in a good way.

Well enough now already about the look and décor and let’s get to service and food! We were greeted nicely by both the bartender and waitress in a timely manner and offered a table fairly quickly. The menu had your typical assortment of breakfast, lunch and dinner options for Mexican food. Yes there was chicken, beef, steak and shrimp available in tacos, burritos and more.

After being seated and browsing the menu we were brought your expected chips and salsa. They had a pretty good tasting chips and salsa (I have always wondered how a Mexican restaurant can screw up and make bad chips and salsa but thank God not here). So once we had several minutes to view the menu and decide we chose burritos one bean and cheese the other shrimp.
