As summer rolls into autumn, Miami Spice is now rolling through the month of October for the first time. And, this year it does not disappoint. The most recent reservation is the best of the best - Ariete and its Michelin stars left diners wanting to return for its special 7 course menu. With venison tartar and oxtail gnocchi - who would want to try a 3 course option for 65 per guest, 7 nights a week? If you are going for a casual lunch fare - first stop is LPM. Located conveniently for Brickellites on the corner of 14th and Brickell Bay Drive don’t let the construction sway you. This place is open for business - and at $40 for a three course lunch it doubles as a delightful art museum as you meander through its corridors of electric art through the nuevo French American fare. In fact, its homemade pasta will leave diners wondering if they are in Napoli or Miami. This is truly a place for tourists and locals alike, day or night and for casual fare or celebrations of many kinds. If you delight in French American bistros, visiting Le Jardinier for a Saturday lunch in Miami's design district is the perfect place for people watching and enjoying a three course lunch Miami style - fashionable and full of surprises. I love Miami Spice is better than ever as we enter the time of year to harvest a great time at a good price. For more information, visit ilovemiamispice.com.
