If You Can't Feed Yourself.....

If you can't feed yourself...there is always a friendly waiter ready to assist. Our friend Angie was fed some ice cream by our waiter Eduardo...... I think he definitely enjoyed doing it. We all had a good laugh watching this at the table.
A nightclub with good live acts/shows
by sunlovey about Revolution
What is now called Revolution, used to be The Chili Pepper and before that The Edge, I've kind of grown up going here...
Today- as Revolution, the interior is dark and red with old, cool concert and band posters plastered on the walls. I haven't gone here when it serves as a nightclub, only for shows, but there are two floors and I think, two bars, as well as a lower area that used to serve as the dance floor, maybe it still does.
As for concerts/shows... they're generally held on the outside patio area. There is a bar outside as well as a balcony that overlooks the stage.
They book acts like Keane, UB40 and Bloc Party. Check their ticketmaster Web site for show listings. Depends upon the ocassion, once again, jeans are a safe bet. Summer concerts can get HOT though on the patio...
By plane! I took Air Canada...
by hayward68
By plane! I took Air Canada direct from Toronto the first visit. I prefer it to the charter companies which I used other visits. I had a bit more leg room and you can bring a bigger carry-on with you. Though it surprises me how big some of the bags are that people get away with.
One of the best ways to see southern Florida is to hire a car. I got mine from Budget rentals and was able to get out of the city to the Everglades and up to Butterfly world. Also good if you are staying at a place with your own kitchen and want to stock up on groceries.
Great slice: Open 24 hours
by SpaceCoastMomma about Primanti Brothers Pizza & Grill
Excellent pizza pie done right...hand-tossed with just the right amount of sauce and fresh ingredients. This place is open 24 hours, 7 days a week. There is always a line of customers out the door and the tables are always full with customers. A great place to people-watch or, if you're tired or feeling less enclined to socialize, order a great pie for takeout. This place is great! Pizza pie to perfection. Hand-tossed with a perfect crust.
The Beach
by hayward68
You have to go to the beach in Fort Lauderdale. And there’s so much of it to choose from. Pick a spot and plant yourself for the afternoon with a good book and some beer, just hide it from the lifeguard ;) Or just walk for hours like I did admiring the scenery.
