Restaurant · South Miami

@infatuation

"This Miami classic has stood in the same location for over 70 years, so it’s been a part of Kendall way before finishing every sentence with bro became a thing. While they don’t serve Miami’s best barbecue, it’s solid and there’s something uniquely charming about eating ribs in a log cabin under the Dadeland South Metrorail station. The spare ribs are the thing to get here along with a side of baked beans and coleslaw. The corn on the cob is served in a styrofoam boat filled with more melted butter than you’ll need, but it’s a can’t-miss Shorty's tradition (along with rinsing your fingers in a little cup of hot water after your meal). Make sure to finish with a not-too-tart slice of key lime pie." - ryan pfeffer, virginia otazo, mariana trabanino
