This newly revised and expanded edition covers every corner of the state, from top to bottom, from the casual Bahamian eateries of the Keys and funky hotspots of South Beach, to the giddy environs of Disney. Always on the look out for the places where the locals go to dine, LaFray shares what other Florida guides overlook, off-the-beaten path eateries that serve up the best values.

A crossroads of island cuisines offers menus that draw from African, Jamaican, Spanish, Cuban and numerous other influences. Such a melting pot demands a critic with a discerning palate.

LaFray is the author of over twenty guides and cookbooks, including Cuba Cocina! The Tantalizing Flavors of Cuba, Tropic Cooking and Key Lime Cooking.
