It took nine years, but Jeremy "Jay" Armstead has found the perfect spot for his Texas Hold ’Em BBQ. He opened the doors last month of the quirky A-framed cottage on Federal Highway just south of Oakland Park Boulevard that has housed everything from Green Fish to Shuck’s on the Water. It backs up on the Middle River, and dockside seating is in the works.

Restaurants have a way of drifting from their original paths, relying too much on old menu items and old ways of doing things. Other times, they become so attached to novelty that the things that made them brilliant fade away.
Eighty-five years ago, the spot now known as Cap’s Place opened as Club Unique. Popular through the 1940s as a supper club and casino operated by Eugene "Cap" Knight and his wife, Lola, it’s believed to be the oldest restaurant in Broward County. It even has a spot on the National Register of Historic Places.
The Tipsy Boar, the latest addition to the Sardelli family’s Hollywood restaurant fiefdom (Fulvio’s 1900, Vino, Sardelli’s on Hollywood Beach), is a gut-busting, beer-swigging delight.
