"Miami diners (and Michelin alike) loved EntreNos, the Miami Shores pop-up that churned out seasonal, local cooking from husband-wife team Osmel Gonzalez and Camila Salazar. The long-standing pop-up came to an end earlier this summer, but Gonzalez and Salazar, who had worked together at the three Michelin-starred Singlethread, now have their sights set a bit further north in West Palm Beach. The duo is teaming up with APM Restaurant Group’s Álvaro Perez Miranda, behind Miami spots like the omakase stunner Ogawa and sushi favorite Hiyawaka, to open Emelina. Named after Gonzalez’s Cuban-born grandmother, Emelina features an 18-seat chef’s counter with Cuban flavors and Florida ingredients in the spotlight. The rotating menu will have produce-forward dishes like oregano-marinated Redland tomatoes with green mojo and Florida macadamia milk foam and desserts like cocada baracoense—sweetened coconut with pure cacao, Florida Eliot pecans, coconut crème fraîche, and key lime-white wine raspado." - ByKate Kassin
