Sunday brunch with the South Florida Foodies at Chef Geoffrey Zakarian's Tudor House on Miami Beach.
Tudor House · South Beach
Tudor House is a casual neighborhood café filled with the hospitality, details and modern American fare that make Zakarian's restaurants shine. Tudor House occupies the ground floor corner space of the Dream South Beach Hotel and what was once the Tudor Hotel, keeping reverence for the building's history and simultaneously reinventing it.
On a raining Sunday afternoon in mid August a group of about 40 foodies, known as the South Florida Foodies gathered at the Tudor House on Miami Beach for an afternoon of pure indulgence.
Curated by the incomparable Maude Eaton, Chefs Geoffrey Zakarian and Jamie DeRosa along with Jelena Meisel and Pietro Riccobono from Casa Vinicola Zonin thrilled us to an afternoon brunch they called a "Foodies Dream Come True". A title that was in no way an exageration of the delights to come.
