this month is about stuffing your face with no regrets. get primed, bone up and visit the med with these december eats:
nabokov noshes.
dolores, but you can call me lolita resto is hot, hot, hot. and not just because it's located in miami's historic old firehouse four. with dishes called "simply the best serrano ham croquettes you have ever tasted," we don't think lolita's fire will be put out anytime soon. at least we hope not. now open. 1000
south miami avenue. at SW 10th. 305.403.3103.

meat up.
downtown's resto portfolio keeps getting better and better. carnivores are sure to delight in grimpa
steakhouse, a brazilian-style churrasco. it's gotta be good when your food is served "rodizio" style. what does that mean for you? beef, pork and chicken served from large swords. now open. 901
brickell plaza. at SE 9th. 305.455.4757.

chin chin.
the italian restos have some competition from the recently opened pazzo's
cucina italiana in fort lauderdale. it's already popular in chicago and we know why. delicioso italian food like polenta cups and eggplant terrine make for warm and comforting eats. mama mia. now open. 1430
SE 17th street. near cordova. fort lauderdale. 954.712.9556.

prime time.
another day, another hip resto lounge in downtown miami, right? not with prime
blue grille (pictured). choose from a list of whole fish and many cuts of meat. after that, choose your method of prep. a strip with wild mushroom vinaigrette, perhaps? all in a requisite hip setting that overlooks the main drag. now open. 315
south biscayne boulevard. at SE 3rd. 305.358.5900.

med miami.
ouzo's mediterranean bistro is sure to be nothing short of a godsend on south beach. owners liza and gigi (of french and greek heritage, respectively) make sure their med mezes, like shrimp saganaki and baked spinach pies, are always served with a side of music, dancing and plenty of drinks. now open. 1766
bay road. at 18th. 305.604.0008.

bone up.
though it's a chain resto, the new bonefish grill manages to escape the humdrum atmosphere associated with say, a TGIF. we're in florida, after all, so fresh fish is aplenty. the lil' swimmers are prepped over an oak-burning grill, making these dishes a good standby in a pinch. now open. 2121
ponce de leon boulevard. at alcazar. 305.460.1888.
