"Having officially made his way to the Magic City, Hemant Mathur has opened Maska at 3252 Northeast 1st Avenue, Suite 109; I note the menu mixes traditional Indian fare with more modern dishes—expect the critically acclaimed tandoori lamb chops, duck-filled tacos, curry-topped crab cakes, an array of stuffed breads, an assortment of curries, and even a chutney tasting. The 7,000-square-foot restaurant features a lounge area, an expansive bar, an open kitchen, and an open tandoor adjacent to a Maska Model Mural on its wall. Maska is open for dinner Tuesday to Sunday from 5 to 11 p.m., with lunch and brunch forthcoming; call 786-971-9100 to make a reservation." - Olee Fowler
