It’s led to a spate of daring, exciting restaurants that are reshaping this city in the best way. The city is buzzing with a sense of opportunity right now, and a wave of up-and-coming local and new-to-town chefs have picked up on that air of possibility. Whatever you want to eat, Miami has it: Cuban cafecito, Turkish manti, Southern fried chicken, made-from-scratch Italian pasta, Peruvian seafood.

But while Miami has the reputation for its all-night partying and striking buildings, it’s also a city filled with incredible restaurants that reflect the city’s cultural diversity. Miami isn’t an easy city to define-it’s a seasonal hot spot for spring breakers, a host for celebrity-soaked events like Art Basel, and an Art Deco architectural wonder.

Even after living in Miami for over 20 years, I still find myself rediscovering old neighborhoods, stumbling upon new restaurants, and watching as the city reinvents itself.
