Independent Journalism in Miami Needs You

We need to raise $10,000 by August 9 to support the reporting our community depends on. Reader support keeps us independent and is playing a larger role in funding local journalism and shaping what comes next. If you believe independent local journalism matters, make a contribution today.

A snippet of the New Times restaurant review for next week:

Take the two salsas that jump start diners — one red, one green, both pureed to the sort of seamlessly smooth consistency that would satisfy the most stringent of French chefs. There are those (including myself) who generally prefer their salsas rough and chunky, but you really can’t beat the smoky flavor of the milder tomato-guajillo dip, or the gutsy-hot tomatillo-habañero one. The blue and white corn chips, on the other hand, demonstrate why sometimes modern improvements are not improvements at all; they have that dull, flat-flavored greaselessness resulting from having been baked rather than fried.

Talavera Cocina Mexicana 2299 Ponce de Leon Blvd., Coral Gables; 305-444-2955.
