Scarpetta - Signature Spaghetti

A Magic City staple since 1954, the Fontainebleau Miami Beach has been impressing A-list guests with its timeless glamour, celebrity parties, iconic nightlife, and award-winning restaurants for decades. And to celebrate summer, one such restaurant, Scarpetta {4441 Collins Avenue, Miami Beach; 877.326.7412}, is kicking-off the season with some new menu items sure to impress.

Named for the Italian expression that means “little shoe”–or the shape bread takes when used to soak up those last few bites in your most delicious dish–Scarpetta embodies the essence of savoring a meal to the very last bite. And when you consider the restaurant is the brainchild of celebrity chef Scott Conant, you have to ask yourself: Would you go and do anything less?

Head to Scarpetta this summer, and be sure to look out for these hot new menu items:

Primi piatti (small plates)

Crispy Fritto Misto with seafood, vegetables, herbs, and lemon

Paste (pasta dishes)

Ricotta Raviolini with sweet corn, hazelnuts, and honshimeji mushrooms

Squid Ink Tagliolini with seafood ragu, lemon, and parsley

Pici with Maine lobster, tomatoes, and tarragon

Piatta, or entrées

Fennel Dusted Black Cod with concentrated tomato, fennel, and mantecato

Roasted Branzino with artichoke, sea beans, anchovy, and tomato dressing

Pancetta Wrapped Atlantic Halibut with cauliflower, asparagus, Barolo grapes, and hazelnut

Herb Crumbed Lamb Loin with fresh chickpeas, fennel, and semi-dried tomatoes

Contorni, or side dishes

Roasted Corn with piquillo, scallion, Parmesan, and breadcrumbs

Marble Potatoes with guanciale and herb crumbs

Seared Wild Mushrooms with lemon and herbs

And of course, new menu items or not, don’t forget some of Conant’s signature dishes, like his Spaghetti with tomato and basil and Creamy Polenta with fricassee of truffled mushrooms. Those alone are worth a visit.
