| Whatever you do, don’t miss out on Miami’s favorite spectator sport: people-watching in Ian Schrager's stunning Delano hotel. The restaurant, decadent in an understated ’90s way, wows with white curtains, white candles, white grand piano and impossibly high ceilings. The outdoor verandah is an equally impressive spot to dine, overlooking a Philippe Starck life-size chessboard and eclectic, pastoral garden. The food is also a sight to behold---and to be eaten with gusto, as illustrious Claude Troisgros is the consulting chef for a menu of tropical-accented French cuisine. Appetizers exhibit Troisgros' refined but flavor-packed style, especially Big Ravioli with taro root mousseline and truffle cream sauce, and a duck foie gras burger with caramelized onions and sweet-sour tomato glaze. Entrées reinforce the chef's trademark manner of innovatively fusing ingredients into cohesive and unforgettable dishes. A filet of black grouper gets eloquently enhanced with cashews, brown butter and roasted fresh hearts of palm; beef tenderloin is crusted with distinction by a green peppercorn tempura; and roast duck breast is enlivened by bacon, figs and caramelized pears. Don't miss the passion fruit crêpe soufflé for dessert. Blue Door remains South Beach's standard of grandeur, befitting Miami’s flashy elite, deep-pocketed tourists, or anyone who dares to dream. |
