Did you know that our local hipster hideaway, Cafeina, is now offering Brunch & Bazaar Sundays? Neither did we, so we felt it was our obligation to investigate. Thankfully some kind restaurant reps offered to treat us to a meal there a few Sundays ago, so now we can report…
Latin Burger’s Jim Heins rolls with the punches, literally. The Latin Burger truck broke down right in the middle of the intersection of I-95 and I-395. Instead of throwing a fit about wasted revenue, Heins took out his camera, shot a photo and sent it to Miami New Times. Heins…
Time for our monthly wrapup. Of note, local favorite Hiro’s Yakko-San moved to larger (and not as charming) new digs, but the food is still as good as always. There’s also a new sushi bar in town: Makoto. Here are the notable openings and closings in March (or not mentioned…
When you think about it, food trucks serve amazing stoner food — tacos, burgers, cupcakes — everything a college kid with a bong and a bank account could possibly want out of life. The next step would be to actually serve, well, pot out of a food truck.Enter the Canni-Bus…

The food truck selection in Miami just got a little more interesting with the addition of Shao Roma today. Shirking the usual food truck clichés of tacos, burgers and sweets, Shao Roma brings fresh and authentic Romanian food to a truck stop near you. At first glance, Shao Roma looks…
Short Order had a rare opportunity to sit down with a restaurateur and his chef to talk about a concept that hasn’t yet opened its doors: the much-anticipated City Hall. When we visited the brasserie, which will be located on the site of a former Vespa dealership (2004 Biscayne Blvd.),…
Café Sambal is a gorgeous restaurant. Intimate outdoor seating overlooking Biscayne Bay consists of minimalist furniture and clean and sparse décor. The subtle design focuses attention on the water, sky, and soaring buildings across the bay that function as the real backdrop. You immediately begin imagining romantic dates, breezy birthday dinners, and…

Seems like the rumor mill is working overtime in Miami. Yesterday we got wind that Mia at Biscayne had closed down and a burger joint was opening in its place. A call to Mia’s offices shed light on the situation (somewhat). Mia is not dead — she’s just undergoing a…

Mil gracias to Burger Beast, who tipped up to Clarabelle’s Cupcakes. The pink truck looks like a confection itself as it rolls down the street. Owner Jessica Knopf already has a small shop on SW 77th Avenue in Miami, but after seeing trucks in Los Angeles and New York, she…

Just a short stretch of Route 9’s Cafe review coming up next week:Proteins on entree plates were nicely executed: A small wedge of salmon steak and cylinder of prosciutto-wrapped pork loin both boasted crisp exteriors and were moist and impeccably cooked within; flank steak, cut into thick strips, was flavorful…
Recently, a friend delivered a six-pack of 4oz. Tortuga rum cakes ($66.95 for 2-six packs shipped to the U.S.) from Nassau, Bahamas. They came in an ornate, hexagon-shaped box vacuum-sealed to lock in freshness. I first smelled rum and then tasted it, Seemed almost as if it had been dunked…

When we found out that not only is Kareem Anguin, the new executive chef at Oceanaire, celebrating his big 3-0 this weekend but that he’ll also be doing so at Taste of Brickell, we figured it was time to introduce him to the masses. (He said he plans to serve…
