Miami's "melting pot" of all Caribbean and Latin America deserves all the clout, especially when talking about their delicious and rich culinary offerings.
To say that Allapattah is a unique and interesting food destination is an understatement.
The neighborhood is home to an array of bodega-style eateries for a quick and easy bite, a far cry from the usual 5-star restaurants you've come to love (and sometimes go broke for) in Magic City.
Yet, these cozy, quaint places say a lot about the working-class neighborhood.
These food spots are where locals pop in for a quick bite before heading to the docks, the construction site, the farms, or the office.
They are homegrown restaurants with family members serving up Desayuno (breakfast) and café-- a charming draw that shows how big Allapattah is about community and love for family.
Yes, folks! Allapattah marks the newest center of intercultural fusion in Miami, and it'll be a shame to miss out on all the yummy eats the area has for you!
So, take out your pen and paper and start jotting these names down--
Here are the Top 5 Eats to try while you're here. (in no particular order)
