If the movie Chef taught us anything, it’s that every chef yearns for the creative freedom to run a kitchen. The film also predicted the next trend in the food industry, at least in Miami: food bloggers partnering with chefs for their first solo endeavor. Blue Collar’s Danny Serfer opened…

If you’re not into meat, butter, or cheese, a Thanksgiving table can be tough to navigate. The Brussels sprouts are cooked in bacon; the mashed potatoes are loaded with butter; the turkey is, well, a turkey. But for the plant-based eaters, Short Order has dug up some options for yummy,…

Rejoice, South Beach. David’s Caf� is coming back. In April, the decades-old Cuban institution on Collins Avenue was shuttered because the surrounding construction hurt business, owners said.

Floridians love Publix: the friendly staff, the bakery, the subs (seriously, the subs). To many of us, the grocery chain is one of the greatest things to have ever been exported from the state. The store “Where shopping is a pleasure,” however, is not such a pleasure to supply. For…

Kush has a new sandwich and it isn’t a burger, although it does have grass-fed meat. And tomatoes. And lettuce. And grilled onions. And melted jack cheese. And potato stix. All pressed between two challah buns stamped with the Kush seal of approval. If the above description sounds like some…
