The Ritz-Carlton, South Beach Is The Hottest Place To Dine This Season

Annabella Pardo

The weather is finally getting cooler on the East Coast and fall is upon us! But down on South Beach things are heating up at The Ritz-Carlton, South Beach! Which has a new culinary program across the property designed by Executive Chef Diogo Porto, Sous Chef Samuel Vasquez, and Executive Pastry Chef Nitin Bali, including new breakfast, brunch, lunch, and dinner menus at Fuego y Mar and a new specialty dessert menu at Lapidus Bar.

Major highlights of the program are the revamped lunch menu at Fuego y Mar, which explores a spin on street food heavily inspired by Latin flavors and flair, and the spirit-inspired dessert menu at Lapidus Bar that perfectly pair with the craft cocktails.

Fuego Y Mar is an elevated expression of Miami Glamour, 1950s Art Deco Miami Beach-inspired, an experience weaved throughout the influence of coastal Latin America, dishes crafted with fresh, simple ingredients with a spin-off from tradition.

Standout lunch dishes include:

A Mexican-inspired Milanesa sandwich with succulent, panko breaded chicken breast, lettuce, tomato, chipotle aioli, and avocado served on panini bread
Aspin on an Ecuadorian favorite Pan-Seared Red Snapper Encocado served with coconut refrito sauce, cauliflower rice salad, tabbouleh, pomegranate, and freshly made tostones.

Close your eyes, feel the breeze, and let yourself dive into their menu. “Inspired Globally, Sourced Locally”.

An ideal expression of Miami's Glamour inspired by the 1950s style. Lapidus Bar Chef and Mixologist paired bold flavors with fresh and refined ingredients that take a spin-off from tradition to transport you to the most exciting part of Miami Beach.

The two impactful dessert options at Lapidus Bar are:

“Tipsy Stage,” consisting of a Grand Marnier parfait, strawberry margarita sorbet tequila gelée
“The Jewelry Box ,'' made up of a selection of a Baileys bonbon, an orange mezcal financier, a coffee rum macaron, and a cherrie Martell.
