The Bravo network’s Top Chef Season 13 winner uses gastronomy techniques to create new flavors, textures, and artistic presentations to enhance the overall food and drink experience.
Luxuriate over light and airy dishes from the brunch menu, divided by sweet and savory, along with equally creative and delish cocktails:
Brunch and Cocktails at Stubborn Seed Miami Beach
Desert Daisy
This exceptional take on the Margarita is wonderfully floral, citrusy and peppery; Olmeca Los Altos Blanco Tequila, Brovo #4 Amaro, Beet, Orange Bell Pepper, Habanero, Carrot, and Lime. Garnished with carrot salt and edible flower.
Soleil Spritz
Easy-to-drink and flavorful; Absolut Elyx Vodka, Hibiscus-Infused Aperol, Blood Orange, Cinnamon, Lemon, and Prosecco.
Pair with Stoneground Sweet Potato Pancakes crowned with seasonal stone fruit and candied pecans, or Chai Waffles topped with espresso cream and spiced syrup.
Thyme Traveler
Refreshing, aromatic and potent; Bombay Sapphire Gin, Thai Chili-Infused Elderflower Liqueur, Cucumber, Lemon, and Thyme. Garnished with a cucumber ribbon and sprigs of fresh thyme.
Stubborn Seed Old Fashioned
Sharp and intense; Jojo Tea-infused Redemption Rye Whiskey, Winter Spices, and Citrus Aromas. Served on a tray with small, amber-colored dropper-style bottles of housemade bitters and simple syrup to add according to taste.
Pair with Mezcal & Citrus Cured Salmon or Smoked Tennessee Pork Belly served with crispy farm eggs. Whatever dishes you choose, be sure to indulge in Pastry Chef Dallas Wynne’s breads – like her Cracked Black Pepper Buttermilk Biscuits served with sweet onion jam, or her desserts – such as warm Snicker Doodle Cookies filled with Valrhona Gianduja chocolate.
Stubborn Seed recently added a bottomless component to their Sunday Brunch menu, unlimited mimosas and champagne, ($25 pp).
Tip: Reserve the marble, family-style chef’s table, under the picture window with a view into the kitchen, for your brunch crew.
