The cuisine at Lutum feautres a little bit of everything, from a falafel covered Scotch egg and a "Jalea" inspired shrimp toast with crispy yuca to corn agnolotti with lima beans and roasted tomatoes and watermelon panzanella with crispy grits and a sherry-bacon vinaigrette, it was purposely diverse to represent the many cultures in the area.

Cadillac Courtyard 
I would like to send out a great big "Thank You" to Dilip Pathak for helping me during my stay at the hotel in Miami. It was awhile back (July 7-8 2017), but I just found the information about him. He was wonderful and supportive to me when I lost my prescription sunglasses - I arrived on an Uber ride from a cruise ship and lost my sunglasses in the car. When I finally located my Uber driver, he only spoke Spanish. Mr. Pathak was able to speak to the driver and get him to return to the hotel with my sunglasses. He went beyond his job to help - as did several other employees (both outside and at the front desk) as my sisters, mom and I were celebrating my mom's 80th birthday in Miami. Thank you!!!! He helped make the trip a memorable one!

The Hotel 
Thanks to John for showing us a great time and stay.    

The Miami Beach EDITION
I had the pleasure of staying recently at EDITION, and used the services of the concierge team extensively. They arranged my tours, dining, helped with all my questions regarding shopping and Miami. The team is led by Brian, who has a vast knowledge of Miami (he wears the important golden keys!) and is eager to share his expertise. Joey, Jessica, Youssef and Nicholas were amazing too. I feel like I made new friends!
