Where I Go Out

Grilled octopus

Casa Tua Aspen

$$$$, Happy Hour, Full Bar, Italian,

"This dish is a delicious expression of the sea. There is something about these three ingredients of the Mediterranean that come together organically over a grill. It is just so simple; the flavors were clearly made for each other. Add a touch of sea salt and there's not a thing left to do. No matter how it changes with the season, it's always my go-to."

$$, Outdoor Seating, Cuban,

"The savory taste from the fried pig skin couldn't be washed down with anything better than a freshly squeezed local, tropical fruit juice. It's savory and sweet, everything that I love about Miami. It does not get more Miami than this!"

Taquerias El Mexicano

$, Mexican, East Little Havana

"This is a hearty, country taco, just the way they intended it to be."

$$, Sushi, Japanese, Reservations,

"Who doesn’t like spicy tuna? They always manage to get the spice just right."

$$$, Seafood,

"There is nothing like having the richness of a stone crab claw in the comfort of your own home. There is something about a fresh, cold knuckle right in the special Dijon sauce that just exemplifies perfection. Simply the best, and they deliver!"

$$, Outdoor Seating, Asian, Wynwood

"These wings taste so good. The Korean spices really add an extra special flavor to the standard fried chicken wing."

At My Venues

Octopus burrito

My Ceviche Brickell

$$, Breakfast, Seafood, Peruvian, Portuguese, Downtown Miami

"Sam and the team use only the freshest seafood, executing the food to perfection. The ceviches are great and this place is the go-to when stone crabs are in season. Where they really nail it is with their octopus burrito. It's got corn, tomatoes, tasty and tender grilled octopus, coconut rice, and a little spice. Topped with jalapeño crema and salsa roja, this bite makes for an awesome lunch or dinner. As a matter of fact, I think I've had this for both meal periods in the same day. Great stuff!"
