Before launching the first Sicilian Oven in Lighthouse Point with partner Ralph DiSalvo back in 2008, Andrew Garavuso took himself to the woodshed—and that’s when it hit him. All he needed to do, to give his pizzas an edge, was throw another log on the fire. Garavuso already understood the effect that burning charcoal had

Naked at the B

Naked Crab Seafood Kitchen, the new beachside restaurant inside the recently renovated B Ocean Resort (the former Yankee Clipper), is already drawing raves. Created by Miami chef and restaurateur Ralph Pagano, the coastal-chic spot adds a modern spin to a traditional seafood house.

There are two things to know up front about Sheri Daye, whose full-time role as an IBM engineer would be impressive enough on its own were it not for her weekend exploits in the ocean.

Major Eunkyong Park began thinking of ways to honor his memory. The magnet coordinator at the school’s Creek Technical Academy and the

Last year, hundreds gathered at The Wynwood Yard to pay homage to (i.e., devour) our favorite morning treats at Miami’s first “Donuts!” festival. The event proved to be a South Florida sensation, paralleling the success of several local gourmet doughnut shops, and it looks like the craze is far from fading. On March 30, Vine

Green Scene

There was a brief lull in John Crean’s office at Broken Sound Country Club, but buzzing filled the silence. “Oh, yes, those are some of our bees,” he says, pointing to the insect-filled frame on the back table. “I wanted to you to see them.” That was in September, when Crean, general manager and chief

Fish Out of Water

For all the in-with-the-new anticipation that comes with developing seasonal menus at a beloved restaurant like YOLO in downtown Fort Lauderdale, there’s also the potential for out-with-the-old disappointment. “It’s difficult sometimes because you want to change, but then certain items become so popular that you have to make tough decisions,” says Peter Boulukos, executive chef
