Thrillist - Lo De Lea Argentinean Grill - Miami, FL

From an Argentine couple, LDL's a grill-intensive shoebox of an eatery in the former Casa Toscana spot on Biscayne, serving "creative interpretations" of Argentine cuisine (aided by Italian, French, Spanish, and even a smidge of Asian influence) in a cottage-like interior with simple wood furniture and walls of wine in knotty pine racks, but not naughty pine racks, as then the wine would disappear. Feasting starts with apps like Tablitia (port salut cheese w/ Mediterranean olives & crostini), sweetbreads seasoned w/ garlic & fresh parsley, and Brochette De Camarones: skewered grilled shrimp on a bed of mixed greens, cherry tomatoes & chimichurri that's triple-herbed...so basically, it's chimiblurry. "From The Prairie" entrees're all Angus, and include a seared filet in three-pepper demi-glace w/ roasted sweet potatoes, and grilled Vacio (flank steak w/ cilantro, hard boiled egg & grilled bok choy), and they've also got "From The Sea" choices like med-rare ahi tuna that's sesame-seared -- also a beloved children's' show in which Big Bird is eaten. 7001 Biscayne Blvd; Upper East Side; 305.456.3218 For the deets: thrl.st
