South Beach Miami / Miami Restaurants
|
|
Cuban food is what Miami does best, and it's not limited to
the traditional haunts in Little Havana - the hearty, comfort food, notably rice
and beans, fried plantains and shredded pork sandwiches, is found in every
neighborhood. It is, however, complemented by sushi bars, American home-style
diners, Haitian restaurants, Italian eateries and Indian venues, among a handful
of other ethnic cuisines. Coral Gables stakes its claim in up market cafés and
ethnic Italian and Greek restaurants, while Coconut Grove features American,
Spanish, New Floridian - a mix of Caribbean spiciness and fruity Florida
sauces - and even British. |
Seafood is equally abundant; succulent grouper, yellowfin
tuna and wahoo, a local delicacy, are among five hundred species of fish
thriving offshore. Stone crab claws , served from October to May, are another
regional specialty. A tropical climate provides Florida with a juicy assortment
of standard orange and grapefruit citrus, as well as the exotic flavors of the
lychee, mango, papaya, tamarind and star fruits - many of which are used in
sauces and batidos (light milkshakes). You'll also want to drink Cuban coffee:
choose between café cubano , strong, sweet and frothy, drunk like a shot with a
glass of water; café con leche , with steamed milk, and particularly good at
breakfast with pan cubano (thin, buttered toast); or café cortadito , a smaller
version of the con leche .
