CHEF CREOLE – Seafood
Order at the counter, then watch the fryers work. Chef Creole runs on spiced-up Haitian seafood, and the Miami Gardens store on NW 2nd Avenue keeps the formula the Pierre brothers built. Fried snapper, conch fritters, steamed fish, griot, oxtail and lemon pepper wings arrive piled beside seasoned rice and sweet plantains, with house pikliz for heat. Diners return for the seasoning and the sheer size of the plates. The kitchen has drawn national television attention, including a visit from Anthony Bourdain. Open Monday through Saturday, eleven in the morning until nine. Loud, generous, unmistakably Haitian, priced for repeat visits.
