Abbalé Telavivian Kitchen in Aventura is the brainchild of Chef Sam Gorenstein and Pura Vida founder and entrepreneur Omer Horev.

Now, Aventura residents get a new spacious location right in their own backyard.

When I visited, I had the chance to taste a few wonderful options and was pleasantly surprised with the flavors and how well the wines paired with different recommendations. I truly recommend this, especially if you are looking to have a little adventure when it comes to trying out different wines and leaving with new knowledge to share with others about what you experienced.
