🏆 Most popular this week
Curated by popular demand — here are this week’s most-clicked events, local spots, and stories.
South Dixie Highway address confirmed: Trader Joe’s is coming to West Palm Beach, a short drive from Jupiter. The plan includes retail space and an eight-story apartment building. The opening date has not been announced — get location and project details.
Florida hotel’s living history: From 1920s origins to wartime snapshots, a photo gallery traces the Palm Beach Biltmore across decades as the landmark marks 100 years in 2026, just a drive south of Jupiter — browse the historic photo gallery.
Treasure hunt, but chic: At The Good Stuff, consignment finds meet creative flair, with one-of-a-kind furniture, quirky home accents, and Annie Sloan Chalk Paint projects for the hands-on. Inventory moves fast, so each visit feels fresh, with unexpected pieces ready to become instant favorites.
Playful plates, seasoned pros: SaltBird Kitchen & Bar has arrived in Jupiter with coastal Southern flavors from Atlanta chef Ron Eyester. Expect classics with fun twists like BBQ Chicken Egg Rolls and a Southern Burger, with local chefs Brian Leary and Brian Learnt helping steer the kitchen. Read the full story.
Craving real smoke: Family-run Mrs. Smokeys Real Pit Bar-B-Q serves tender, slow-smoked meats and dangerously addictive fried biscuit sliders, plus classic comfort sides and easygoing vibes. It also offers laid-back dine-in and quick pickup for low-effort, high-reward dinners.
Managing merges with metering lights: FDOT has installed 48 ramp signals statewide, including 10 in Palm Beach County, operating on weekday rush hours, drawing mixed reviews, with more coming at Delray Beach’s Linton Boulevard interchange — get all the details.
Gold & silver are hot: Coming off gold’s best year since 1979, the momentum is carrying well into 2026 with silver remaining one of the most talked-about assets. Curious why precious metals are back in focus? American Hartford Gold has a free guide that explains what’s happening and how people are approaching it today. It’s free – and definitely worth a read.
Compare rates for free: The national average for car insurance is around $175/month. Paying more than that? Same, so I did some shopping around and ended up cutting my premium in half. If you haven’t checked in a while, you’re probably overpaying too — here’s the comparison tool I used.
Nothing prepares you for a pet emergency: I learned that the hard way after charging $10k to a credit card for life-saving surgery on my cat, Miss Stache. As soon as we got home, I signed up for Spot. It’s super affordable – and reimburses up to 90% of the bill.
