Temperatures are rising in Miami, which means my mercury levels may be as well. When it's hot AF outside I need a refreshing dish and an ice cold beer or maybe a "Sake Bomb" if I'm feeling festive... Here are my top three spots (& dishes though their whole menu is great) in Miami and NO they aren't over priced "SOUTH BEACH" prices, nor are they located in SoBe.
