For South Floridians, the mention of gourmet food will rarely bring to mind the Kendall area. Yet, tucked away out west in Kendall is Chef Adrianne’s Vineyard Restaurant and Wine Bar. It features upscale food with a “wine country” vibe. The restaurant is attached to a tiny strip mall, and is easy to miss if
Burgers are, in many ways, the perfect food. I mean, you can get all of the food groups in one bite. That practically makes them health food, right!? Yes? Of course. But, as easy as it is to justify stuffing a burger in my face, finding a stellar burger is not always easy. Here at The
In case you don’t already know, I hate the beach. And, not just the beach, but Miami Beach as a whole is just a cesspool of pretense and superficiality. I hate the traffic. I hate the parking. I hate the parade of Botox and silicone. Plus, I look terrible in a swimsuit. That aside, every
During my search for spots in South Florida that are serious about fried chicken, I came across Yardbird. Then, I almost completely forgot about them, until I went to Swine and had a great experience there. Since both are owned and operated by 50 Eggs, Inc., it was a no-brainer that I needed to try

Miami Spice once again brought me out of my cave and into the world of fine dining. Biscayne Tavern is a swanky little restaurant and bar located inside the B2 Miami Downtown. The sign located on the outside of the restaurant makes it easy to spot, and there is quite a bit of metered parking
Not long ago, I asked around as to where to get the best fried chicken in South Florida. Aside from the standard chains (Popeye’s, Church’s), my friends didn’t have a whole lot of insight. So, I turned to the Internet. This is how I first heard of Michy’s fried chicken. Michy’s, an upscale restaurant located
In case it wasn’t already obvious, I LOVE burgers. Well, I love food in general, but burgers are one of several food items that I absolutely could never do without. So, when a friend pointed out that USA Today named a local burger joint one of the Top 25 Burgers in the country, I jumped
To most South Floridians old enough to remember, Don Shula is a football legend. To those of us in the slightly younger generation, Don Shula is the name plastered on a chain of high-end steakhouses scattered about South Florida. It was only a matter of time before the franchise branched out into burgers. After all, if you
