Review Digest: Now We Know Where To Get A Good Reuben
• Enrique Fernandez rounds up the smallish restaurant scene in Key Biscayne. [Miami Herald]
• Random nugget of information, from a St. Patrick's Day-themed article about John Martin's: did you know that when the owners first opened the pub in 1990, they had to petition the city because of a 1926 law that banned public bars in Coral Gables? [Miami Herald]
• The couple behind Upper Crust Cafe are now running another small cafe, Milk & Honey in Pembroke Pines. [Miami Herald]
• Lee Klein recommends the short ribs braised in pasilla chile at Abokado, which mostly plays it safe with the food. [Miami New Times]
• Most of the food at La Terrazza is okay, but the tiramisu is actually very good, according to Bill Citara. [Miami New Times]
• The food is great and the waitresses are comforting and efficient at City Diner in West Palm Beach. And apparently the grilled Reuben sandwich is incredible; Gail Shepherd called it "the single best thing I've ever put in my mouth." [Broward-Palm Beach New Times]
• All about strawberries, including where to eat them, where to pick them, and what to do with them. There's a recipe from Chef Jerome Le Teuff at the Ritz-Carlton in Manalapan for a chocolate berry martini that involves vanilla vodka, white and dark Godiva liqueurs, and strawberry puree that sounds fantastic. [Palm Beach Post]
• The service is spotty at Rocco's Tacos, but the food more than makes up for it. [Palm Beach Post]
• The menu at Thai-Sushi Express may not be innovative, but the sushi and the Thai standards are good. [Sun-Sentinel]
• Jake's Stone Crab Restaurant will cost you a pretty penny, but the seafood there is worth it. [Sun-Sentinel]

I was surprised to already see a review of Abokado. It officially opened a month ago (Feb. 14)!
