This is Miami, which means our heavily Latin population will never have too many pastelitos, croquetas or arepas. Hence the vast quantity of bakeries lining our city streets. But La Suiza stands out, in part because their homemade pastelitos de queso are better than the norm. As are their cafe con leches and fresh-sqeezed OJ. […]
Like a long-term relationship that’s lost all pretense at passion, you’re probably so over cupcakes. Maple bacon, nutella, beer-infused … you’ve seen all their tricks, and they just don’t arouse you anymore. But one bite of a cupcake from LA Sweets, and it’ll feel like the first time all over again.

Upon entering La Taberna Giralda, it appears to be more wine shop than dining establishment, as wooden crates and cardboard cases filled with mostly South American bottles take up the restaurant’s entranceway. Like stage props, they provide the requisite setting and mood – that of a quaintly cluttered, Old World bistro. The atmosphere, in fact, […]

This indoor/outdoor hodgepodge of a place is named for a small gift traditionally bestowed upon a customer by a merchant, and the moniker couldn’t be more fitting. At this serve-yourself Midtown bar, you pick your craft beer, cheese, and wine, pay at the counter, and then plant yourself in a lawn chair beneath twinkling lights. […]
You’d think more restaurants in this food capital of the Caribbean would know how to fry a green plantain. Yet all too often, they’re too big, too thickly sliced, not ripe enough. And they’re never hot; you find yourself staring at a flavorless, lukewarm pile of plantain pucks. The ones at Laguna always come out […]
Lingering at this egg-centric spot by Kyu’s Steven Haigh and Michael Lewis is made easy. While Laid Fresh’s friendly counter-service team crafts your mouthwatering meal of fresh sandwiches, salads, gluten-free options, and beignets, a colorful communal Lego table keeps you entertained. But the fun doesn’t stop there. This all-day breakfast and brunch spot in Wynwood […]
Yup, it’s that same old cliché: a cute little café in a big ol’ shopping mall. Or rather, in a big ol’ parking garage. Located on the ground floor of Dadeland Station, next to a Romero Britto sculpture, Lan’s pan-Asian fare is the perfect antidote to the surrounding chain stores. Items range from sushi to […]

This Cuban sidewalk cafe has been a primary destination since its opening in 1992 for those who prefer the scenery of Ocean Drive but like the flavor of Eighth Street. For small bucks get big satisfying plates of vaca frita smothered with onions; chicken breast stuffed with chopped shrimp, chicken and yellow rice; and some […]
