Estrella Damm Chef’s Choice Returns With Beer-Pairing Meals Throughout Miami

Miami Spice has ended, but there’s a new meal deal you can sink your teeth into: Estrella Damm’s Chef’s Choice.

Created by chefs and inspired by Estrella Damm, Chef’s Choice features prix fixes curated by South Florida’s most innovative chefs. Each toque is tasked with creating two courses containing tomatoes and shrimp, paired with the original Estrella Damm beer created in 1876.

Jason Weisberg of Paulie Gee’s Miami is serving a Detroit square slice. “Our restaurant prides itself on the sauces we produce,” Weisberg says. “We use fresh tomatoes in their purest form, and it was only right that our dish was paired with a carefully crafted and well-respected beer.”

Chef Federico A. Cassino of Paon Eatery has a unique connection to Estrella Damm and Mediterranean cuisine: He once worked at Hisop, a Michelin-star-rated restaurant in Barcelona. Cassino says, “I made two unique dishes not on our original menu for Chef’s Choice. I am honored to be working with Estrella because it hits home for me. I used to work in Barcelona, and Estrella is all I ever drank while I was there.” At Paon, expect a pan con tomate and Argentine gambas with orzo.

Each menu is as unique as its chef, and the restaurants will set menu prices at $29, $39, or $49 per person. The offer runs through the end of October.
