One of my favorite cuisines is Persian, one of the world’s oldest cuisines and often referred to as “refined”. It is similar to other Middle Eastern cuisines, but also different in its ingredients and is also considered healthy. Happily, what was the leading Persian restaurant here, Fooq’s Miami, has reopened after a hiatus due to Covid, in what they call a “hippie chic sanctuary” in Little River. In its 14,000 square feet it has an attractive indoor dining room, outdoor dining space with its own bar, and an upstairs vinyl lounge, which prioritizes "happy music only" and high-fidelity sound until 3 a.m.. The menu is exciting and the food is very good, well worth a visit.
