Default Tenor CS is visiting South Florida

Hey guys and gals:

I am in South Florida, visiting the wife's family. I am staying in the Coral Springs/Pompano Beach area. Not really familiar with it, but I have seen the street names Sample Road and University Boulevard, if that helps with placement.

Anybody want to recommend a cigar shop I should check out?

I am already well familiar with Kris Basso and Tobacco World.

Here are a couple of shops in Coral you can check out:

I use to live on Royal Palm and we use to get Pizza from a place over on Sample called "Pizza Time." This was as close to a New York slice you would get anywhere I've been down there. They were New York Italians that cooked fantastic. The Scungelli was the bestest.

Thanks for this recommendation. I went there today and was able to pick up 2 sticks of Opus X and a RP Olde World Reserve for what I thought were fair prices. I didn't really get to talk to the guy behind the counter much, as we were in a bit of a hurry, but we did feel welcome, and he was friendly during our transaction.

This is why I can't wait to get back. I'll be at least passing through to my next (and final assignment)with the Big Blue in July so hopefully I can hook up with you guys. I am really trying to get stationed in Tampa and I'll find out in about 20 days where I am headed.

P.S. I am very happy to hear you enjoyed the food and it is still quality. It has been about 10 years since I last ate at Pizza Time A stupid name IMO. Crap I am rambling again...
