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 small but nutritious bite of next week’s restaurant review:
The cuisine is tagged as “the pure essence of taste,” which is the sort of boastful appraisal better left, I think, to restaurant critics. No denying, however, that the menu is chock full of healthful culinary concoctions. It also serves as a substantial glossary of ingredients used — names, origins, glycemic index ratings, and so forth. Homemade pastas, for instance, have a low glycemic index, are cholesterol-free, and contain added ingredients that promise to increase your “endyent benefits.” Whatever those are.
