Miami Beach favorite, Tongue and Cheek has arguably withstood the test of time in an industry where failure is about as common as LiLo singing “Rehab” by Amy Winehouse. Case in point: a valid excuse to celebrate its one-year anniversary by way of a killer prix-fix menu. I thought we were the ones who were supposed to come bearing gifts.
From April 15th (that’s tomorrow) through Sunday, April 20th, restaurateur Chef Jamie DeRosa will oblige his guests to a $65, five-course dinner menu that may or may not include resident dishes like the Cauliflower Panna Cotta with pickled vegetables and American caviar and Crisp Lamb Belly with barbecued octopus, roasted eggplant and romanesco, among other T&C favorites.
But the real bill-slashers lie within the $2.00 beef sliders and the $4.00 T&C Classic Whiskey Sour courtesy of in-house mixologist, Sarah Welch.
And to properly finish off the night, salted pretzel ice cream with cashew praliné, coffee cake and blackberry – if only for that ice cream.
Not seeing your go-to dish on this week’s feted menu? Fret not. Because you can recommend any dish of your choice via T&C’s social media. Leave your coveted suggestions on their Twitter page, @tandcmiami.
Tongue & Cheek is located at 431 Washington Avenue, Miami Beach FL. Telephone: (305) 704-2900; www.tandcmiami.com.
