Chillin at the Crab Spot.

One of my favorite seafood spots in NYC is the Crab spot located in Park Slope Brooklyn. They have an array of different dishes from parmesan crusted talpia to Dungess Crab & lobster pots. One of my favorites from the Park Slope gem is the grilled mahi mahi that has been marinated with a tomato butter sauce with mashed potatoes and string beans.

My next favorite is the Guacamole appetizer. It comes with flavored tortilla chips and fried Navajo bread that tastes like heaven!

 My boyfriend and I come here often and what he usually gets is the Westport pot which comes with snow king crab legs, 1 whole lobster, roasted potatoes, corn on the cob and andouille sausage.

My overall experience at the Crab Spot has been great! Great food, greats service and great atmosphere. They also have a non seafood menu for those of you who don't like to eat food from the sea. So forget Red Lobster and Joe's Crab Shack and  come to Crab Spot instead!. Crab Spot is located on 833 Union St. Btwn 6th and 7th ave. Park Slope Brooklyn. Take the B67 or B69 bus to the Union St stop. 

Cheddar's Restaurant

While driving around searching for something to eat, during the search I realized how tired I was of drive thru fare and food I have to eat with my hands. I decided to call my foodie sidekick up to see if he had any suggestions on where to eat that was responsibly priced and tasty. After a game of NBA 2K14 we decided on going to Cheddar's and this was the result.....

Onion Rings

We started off with this huge tower of Onion Rings that has a spicy dipping sauce as well as a ranch sauce. The batter was light, crispy and fried perfectly. The onions under the delicious batter were thick cut and you could actually taste the onions that were cooked exactly how an onion ring should be, not too soggy and thin, they still had a little snap to them. The portion was more than enough for 2 people you could actually feed at least 3 on this appetizer and the price was only $4.50!

Now onto the crown jewel of the night.....

CHICKEN AND WAFFLES!!! 

This is another win from Cheddar's where it is not my first time having this at the restaurant, it was most certainly as delicious as the first time I had it. The chicken must be triple dipped since the batter has a good coating that is not too heavy and is very crispy and light like the onion rings. The waffle had a good cakey texture on the inside, my only complaint was the outside was a little over done and crispy on one side as you can see from the picture where it is a darker brown. The syrup they use is not too heavy and has a good maple flavor. It is the perfect combination of flavors and most likely the best chicken and waffles I've ever had. There was 4 huge chicken tenders and the waffle is big enough to have a bite with all of the chicken. Keeping with the Cheddar's trend of responsibly priced good food, this was only $8.50. 

Sorry Roscoe's, you may have competition with this plate. 

My friend had grilled fish tacos that I didn't get a picture of because as you can see I was too busy killing my plate! We drank strawberry lemonade that I also didn't capture an image of but was great and had real strawberries in it. The mix was also on point and perfectly blended. 

If you are lucky enough to have a Cheddar's location in your area..I highly suggest going there if you have not. 

This Cheddar's is located at 7951 W. Commercial Blvd. In Tamarac, FL.
