20 Iconic Dishes That Define Miami

"The Dish: Strawberry Pavlova This strawberry pavlova has been to more anniversaries, bah mitzvahs, birthday parties, housewarmings, graduations, and yacht parties than most Miami socialites. It’s truly a classic Miami celebratory dessert. Evenly sliced strawberries are kaleidoscopically fanned out over layers of whipped cream, dulce de leche, and walnut meringue. No occasion, victory, or apology is too small for purchasing one. They even come in personal servings so you can celebrate making your bed, or simply having a successful lazy Sunday.
