The 19 Best Haitian Restaurants In Miami - Miami - The Infatuation

"If you’re looking for Haitian stews, this is the place to go. The legim is the star attraction and can sell out quickly. This stew is made from a medley of vegetables, including cabbage, eggplant, chayote squash, carrots, green beans, and watercress, as well as chunks of beef. They start the stew well before they open for breakfast and don’t serve it until lunch (sometimes a little later) when the beef becomes fork-tender and the vegetables break down to a delicious, velvety mush. It has a slight smoldering heat from scotch bonnets and a bit of sweetness from a ton of cloves. If they’re sold out by the time you arrive, try the zepinad instead, a beef and spinach stew we also love." - ryan pfeffer, virginia otazo, mariana trabanino, carlos c olaechea
