Palme d'Or
The Biltmore Hotel
1200 Anastasia Ave.
Coral Gables, FL 33134
(305) 913-3200
www.biltmorehotel.com/dining
It's the highest rated restaurant in Miami and it will put a dent in your wallet ($80 per person for dinner), but it's worth every penny. Michelin starred and James Beard "Rising Star" nominee Chef Gregory Pugin prepares fresh, local and sustainable ingredients so each guest will have an authentic French dining experience. Palm d'Or also received the 2013 Wine Spectator Award of Excellence and it will surely have you leaving your own five-star review at TripAdvisor. Don't miss its signature dish: Heart of Palm & Stone Crab Napoleon. Parking at The Biltmore is half price for restaurant patrons or you can park for free in the west lot. But really, if you're dropping that kind of money for dinner, who cares about a parking fee?

When you think about outstanding cuisine, you probably don't think of the farming town of Homestead. But you should. Chef Jodrick is getting recognized for his authentic Puerto Rican dishes like mofongo, tripletas and alcapurrias, not to mention his Greek tabouleh, miso salmon and Mongolian beef. If you haven't heard of Chef Jodrick, perhaps you've heard of the South Beach Wine and Food Festival. Chefs On The Run was the first ever restaurant from Homestead to be invited to this prestigious event – and he represented well. He won the Miami New Times Best Bites on the Beach award at the Grand Tasting Village for his maple-bourbon bacon pork skewers with smoky chipotle mac and cheese.

"There ain't no kinda problem that a little home cookin' can't fix," according to Yardbird. If you believe in the goodness of Southern food and how it can heal what ails you, then Yardbird is what you've been praying for.
