The Best Thai Restaurants in Fort Lauderdale and Broward

A full page of papaya salads is a promising sign. So is a noodle menu that takes you through several regions of Thailand before you reach the pad Thai. Broward has restaurants where you can spend an evening following those possibilities: herbs and lime, coconut curry, fermented fish sauce and roasted rice, pulling dinner in delightfully different directions.

This made-in-Miami Mediterranean spot opens Broward restaurant with ocean view

Motek, the Mediterranean restaurant that first opened in the historic Seybold Building in downtown Miami in the middle of a pandemic, has finally ventured into Broward County. The latest addition to the brand, called Motek By The Sea, takes over the former spot of El Vez Mexican restaurant at W Fort Lauderdale on Fort Lauderdale beach, adding gorgeous ocean views to its popular repertoire of eastern Mediterranean cuisine. Charlie Levy, founder of Happy Corner Hospitality and the creator of Motek along with his wife Tessa, said that being close to the water is important to him, a personal and emotional connection that stems from his upbringing in Israel (he moved to the United States as a teen). “There’s something incredibly special about dining by the ocean, and I’ve always been inspired by the possibilities that come with a setting like this,” he said. “Sitting down for a great meal while feeling the ocean breeze is priceless, an experience you can’t replicate.” The new Motek sprawls across 12,000 square feet and seats up to 315 diners. Soon, the brand will open Sesame Kitchen next door, a daytime casual concept with seating for about 40 diners. This is the second location of

China Grill Bal Harbour Introduces a New Bento Set Lunch Starting at $25

With five options starting at $25, China Grill's new lunch offering brings together bold Asian-inspired flavors, fresh ingredients and the pleasure of a proper midday meal. Lunch has become something of a lost art in Miami. Between hurried meetings, endless notifications and the convenience of ordering something to eat at your desk, the midday meal rarely gets the attention it deserves. Yet there is something genuinely enjoyable about stepping away from the workday, sitting down at a good restaurant and having a thoughtfully prepared meal that doesn't require committing the better part of an afternoon.

Ask A Classic Diner Fan In Florida, And They’ll Say Oakland Park’s Peter Pan Diner, With Its Moussaka And Retro Florida Feel, Still Hits Different

Some restaurants chase trends, and some just keep the coffee coming from six in the morning until eleven at night. In Oakland Park, just north of Fort Lauderdale, one Greek diner has been doing the second thing for so long that people who ate late-night breakfast there in the 1990s say the dining room still looks the same.

Find the perfect slice of pie at these Palm Beach County restaurants

Though cakes and cookies seem to bogart the dessert spotlight more often than not, there's nothing more classic than a great slice of pie. Beautiful, flaky, buttery, tart, sweet and, more than any other dessert (IMHO), made with true passion and love, pies are straight up, old school cool! Yes, pouring cake batter into pans and scooping out balls of dough onto baking sheets is an art and requires dedication and skill, but building that perfect crust and crafting a filling that combines sugar, spice and everything nice is a baking pinnacle that's always strived for, but seldom reached. Like the all-time classic movie "True Romance" when, after watching three Sonny Chiba movies in a row, Alabama asks Clarence "Do you want to get some pie?" Let's get some pie in Palm Beach County. Here are six pies worth checking out: The House, West Palm Beach The House's version of key lime pie is crafted from executive chef Jason Van Bomel's recipe and is a rockstar from the ground up. The crust is made with macadamia nuts and graham crackers, the filling features fresh-squeezed key lime juice and then the top is house-made whipped cream with just a little lime
