Fluke Crudo
When Norman Van Aken opened his Wynwood restaurant, Three {50 NW 24 Street #101, Wynwood; 305.748.4540}, in fall of 2017, all of Miami rejoiced. Here, the legendary Floridian chef—considered the “founding father of New World Cuisine,” and one of the original members of the “Mango Gang”—has created a menu that both celebrates the ethnic diversity and food history of Florida, and kicks it up a notch by adding global influences.
Known for its welcoming, energetic atmosphere (making it the perfect addition to Wynwood’s colorful dining scene), Three sets itself apart with its Florida-focused cuisine and primarily prix-fixe menus. That said, just in time for 2019, the Wynwood Arcade flagship broke from its own tradition and launched a lunch menu that’s completely a la carte.
