This is what "America`s Most Imaginative Bartender" looks like! bombaysapphire awarded Julio Cabrera juliopapadoble , a professional cantinero, with this title for his award-winning cocktail that landed him on the cover of gq magazine!
.
In this episode of my "Restaurants in Miami" series, I visited cafelatrovamiami in Little Havana, which was ranked as one of the WORLD`S BEST 100 BARS! 👏🏻 It`s a retro Cuban themed bar and restaurant, with a separate 80s themed bar in the back. This place also won the award for the "Best Bar Team in America," so you know the drinks are on point. 🍹
.
Julio took me to the bar as we prepared quite a few drinks, talked about his background, and what inspired him to become a bartender. We also had the chef prepare us some delicious food created by chefmichy
.
I`ll let you know once the video is up! In the meantime, subscribe to my YouTube channel to catch my other restaurant videos. Link in bio!

🌊 Diving Deeper 🌊
Went to the Frost Science Museum today with some amazing friends and honestly it was probably one of my favorite trips I`ve done all year so far? Afterwards we went to Cafe La Trova to which everything was absolutely fantastic! Between the exhibits and sights I got to see with friends to the drinks and food I got to experience today was literally the best!

In the heart of Miami’s Little Havana, you find Café la Trova. A feeling of Cuba’s bygone years permeate the air.
The cafe is lead by world renown Cantinero Julio Cabrera and his team bring artisanal,handcrafted cocktails to life and James Beard Award Winning Chef Michelle Bernstein and her team bringing Cuban-styled dishes forth to savor. While there you also enjoy live music played by Trova musicians. Loved the feel!
I enjoyed two drinks. The first was a Cantinero’s choice. Just the right amount of tart and sweet! The other was a traditional red sangria.
For starters, we ordered the jamón serrano Croquetas with melted cheese and fig jam and the Maine lobster Croquetas with saffron aioli. They had the perfect consistency of béchamel sauce and were fabulous! I can’t say the same for the ceviche.
We ordered two main courses. We asked our server for recommendations. He proffered the Ropa Vieja. While I am not a fan of Ropa Vieja, I thought this one was delicious. Made from the skirt steak (churrasco) accompanied with white rice, black beans, tostones and avocado cream.
Our next selection was the traditional Cuban Lechon. A braised mojo marinated pork shoulder with steamed yuca, crispy pork skin, mojo and pickled onions. I was told it was fabulous.
Just an overall great feel! Love the vibe of the main bar area and the live music by the Trova players. #cafelatrovamiami #cubannostalgia #cantineros #trova #nostalgia #greatevening #makingmemories
