Juice & Java

Though "local" is all the rage now, there's still something to be said for food un-injected with high-fructose corn syrup, AKA "having undergone little or no processing and containing no chemical additives," AKA, "natural." There's also a lot to be said for any natural-foods restaurant that features meat in addition to requisite hippie staples such as quinoa and tofu, and even more to be said if that place is also fast, clean, and well-located in both Aventura and Miami Beach. Juice & Java's menu rivals that of The Cheesecake Factory for the number of options, including breakfast wraps made with organic eggs, lattes made from Lavazza beans, and open-face melts with Monterey jack or soy cheese on white or whole-wheat pitas. It's one of the few places in Miami-Dade County where you can get a healthful and good-tasting meal fast.
