New Miami Restos


The food gods have smiled upon our Magic City. All of a sudden, Miami is abuzz with restaurant openings. Must be the influx of all those European tourists brandishing their superior currency. Or maybe people need ways to spend the piles of cash accumulated during the real estate boom. At least we food fiends get to benefit. Here are few places you should get excited about.
And I want to welcome all you readers from Eater. Glad to have you, park your keister at the bar and throw back a few.
  • The Ritz South Beach has changed their in-house Americana into Bistro One LR. The menu's online: Polenta onion rings, monkfish osso buco, grapefruit glazed duck. I like what I'm seeing.
  • Philippe Chow's new shrine to Chinese cooking at the Gansevoort South (above).
  • Gerdy Rodriguez will helm 1 Bleu at the shiny new Regent Bal Harbour.
  • John Suley of Boca's Cafe Joley just opened a Joley at the Hotel Astor. Interior design by Michelle Bernstein's sister.
