Living next to Arthurs on rue Notre-Dame felt like having a culinary gem right at my doorstep. Having known Rae from high school and Alex for years, it was a joy to witness their first day and the birth of the latke smorgasbord. From those early beginnings, Arthurs has grown into a gastronomic powerhouse.
But the true pièce de résistance? The Grand Slam. Imagine crispy Noshville fried chicken, soft mini Syrniki, rich all-beef bacon, and flawlessly fried eggs, all complemented by classic American diner-style hash browns. It's a symphony of flavors and textures, challenging you to capture every ingredient in a single, unforgettable bite.
Snowdon Deli isn't just a restaurant; it's an institution. For those in the know, it's a nostalgic trip down memory lane. For newcomers, it's a delightful discovery waiting to happen. This iconic Jewish deli, with its vibrant matzo ball soup and cheese bagelach, transports you straight to the heart of classic Miami eateries, echoing the charm of places like Wolfie’s Rascal House. Outlasting local legends like The Brown Derby and Ben’s, Snowdon Deli stands as a testament to timeless taste and tradition.
One of the few spots that’s so recognized for its food some would argue it’s barely even a dep. Le Pick-Up brings its owners’ New York roots to the city with a bodega-style spot complete with swivelling stools and outdoor diner tables regularly stacked with clientele. Try the cubanos, chipotle chicken clubs, those grilled halloumi and pulled pork sandwiches everyone orders, burgers, all-day breakfast—and always pull a bottle out of the fridges to go with it.
