The Other Critics: Fusion Theme
• The food and decor at Asia de Cuba will wow you — and so will the check. [Miami New Times]
• Everyone needs a dependable, affordable spot for a quick dinner. The Herald offers a few ideas: Moon Thai & Japanese and Miss Saigon Bistro in Coral Gables and Lighthouse Cafe inside Bill Baggs State Park on Key Biscayne. [Miami Herald]
• Jane and Michael Stern (who, through their books, expertly guided our family to excellent eateries on countless road trips) have a couple of favorite spots in South Florida. For the best Cuban sandwich, they recommend Las Olas Cafe on South Beach. Key lime pie? Quinn's. And for stone crab, aside from the obvious, they suggest Keys Fisheries. [Miami Herald]
• Fork on the Road profiles Pic Chocolate and Art Cafe, where one can take a watercolor class, eat a pizza, and/or snack on chocolate-dipped fruit. [Miami Herald]
• The verdict on Origin Pan Asian & Sushi: very good, but not awe-inspiring, with large portions at reasonable prices. [Broward-Palm Beach New Times]
• The Herald revisits Eduardo de San Angel and finds that 16 years later, the restaurant is still putting out excellent, refined Mexican cuisine. [Miami Herald]
• The halawet el jibn at Modca Grill is translated as "pillows of heaven." Apparently the dessert lives up to its name. [Sun-Sentinel]
• Portions are generous at Tee-Jay Thai Sushi, and the tuna tower — raw tuna with kimchi, scallions and wasabi — is fabulous. [Sun-Sentinel]
• Hamburger Heaven is good diner food, and it's one of the few places on Palm Beach where your zip code doesn't matter. [Palm Beach Post]
