L´Atelier Joel Robouchon

Miami has a restaurant with 2 Michelin stars, the Joel Robouchon. Of course I had to try it out.
The restaurant is located in a mall. Downstairs is the one star Le Jardinier, upstairs is the 2 star Atelier.


In the restaurant you can choose between seats at the bar, tables and the terrace. I really did not feel like being grilled at the counter, besides I find it not very comfortable. Since the tables inside were fully booked, it went to the terrace.



I wouldn't call the terrace mega attractive now. If you consider that two people can easily spend four-figure sums here, it's borderline.
The menu:


The prices are without question steep. I actually wanted to take the Tasting menu, with 305 € + service that already haut purely. Since GF wanted to take it only me to love and me partly also interested in certain dishes, we chose in the end a la carte. Maybe I just did not want to get rid of $ 900 with service on the terrace today.
First there was bread with butter. No matter in which Joel Robouchon I was so far, the bread was always excellent. Also very good here, no comparison to the stuff that was offered at the Four Seasons.

It was definitely once the best meal I had in Miami. Everything was of good quality and for me definitely on 2 star level. So I am glad that I tried it.
