"Situated in a serene section of Giralda Avenue in Coral Gables, this Mediterranean restaurant offers all the elements of a good lunch. Selections include the restaurant’s bestselling roasted squid, topped with crispy chorizo, grapefruit, Medjool dates, sumac, and chili, as well as stracciatella with grilled peach, pistachio, capers, mint, and guindilla pearls and fava bean spread accompanied by heirloom tomato, lavash bread, and za’atar. A dish of chicken and cous cous with labneh, ras el hanout ad black cherries makes for a solid second course, and the paccheri pasta blends a satisfying mix of shrimp, octopus, squash, and orange beurre blanc. The finale features gelato, sorbet, or phyllo Napoleon bathed in chantilly cream, berries, and pistachio praline." - Juliana Accioly
