Restaurants in Pinewood

Morgan's menu starts the day off with light breakfasts of brioche french toast ($6.50) and Parisian plates of buttery croissants and fresh fruit ($6), then throws in even more international flourishes. Try the hummus plate ($9), eggs benedict with king crab tail ($14), or panko-crusted coconut essence dipped in tofu-ginger-shoyu sauce ($6). By lunch, the board of fare has shifted to more substantial plates such as charbroiled skirt steak ($15), hog snapper butterflied with oreganato ($16), and Morgan's succulent beef burger ($12). The restaurant staff dares you to ask them why they call it the voluptuous grilled cheese ($9) and suspiciously denies that Christina Hendricks is hidden somewhere within it.

There are two approaches to ordering at miniBAR. You could poll your tablemates for a consensus on passable edibles, allowing everyone to try a bit everything, or just order one of everything, allowing everyone to truly try everything. The menu consists of small servings of sandwiches, pizzas, pastas, salads, sweets, and more. There are mini sandwiches, such as the roasted tomato, olive spread, feta, and spinach ($4), and sliders such as the beef, bleu cheese, and arugula ($5). Choose from a variety of inherently sharable pizzas such as the hummus, kalamata olive, and red onion ($6), or snack on bite-sized tortellini bites ($4), papas rellenas ($5), or truffle fries with parmesan ($5). Accompany your lightly filling meal with a few stimulating beverages from the bar. Sip on red and white wine by the glass ($6–$8), local and micro-brews by the pint ($5–$12), and sake by the bottle ($36), as well as a variety of other beverages, both alcoholic and non.

Scientists envision a future where crust scraps will be used to fuel Americans’ insatiable desire for fuel made out of crust scraps. In honor of Earth Day, today's Groupon helps pass the time with $20 worth of cheese-spackled, toppings-topped, and earth-friendly mealpies for $10 at Pizza Fusion, an eco-conscious pizzeria. This Groupon is valid for redemption at Pizza Fusion's Fort Lauderdale and North Miami Beach locations.

The lunch menu's star starter is hot and sour popcorn shrimp served with Thai vinaigrette ($9). To whet an evening appetite, the dinner menu offers littleneck clams ($12) and soft shell crab ($13). Main courses, such as locally caught grouper ($24) and mahi ($22), are as fresh as a rapper buried in iceberg lettuce. An Indonesian-influenced skirt steak with shiitakes gets high marks ($22) and can cross other transnational borders with a side of Chinese eggplant with red curry ($7) or faro risotto ($8). For dessert, the difficulty of choosing between the drunken grape parfait ($8) and the blueberry meringue pie ($8) can be mitigated by ordering both or by kidnapping Oompa-Loompas to work in an abandoned chocolate factory.

Pizza Volante's meat-and-cheese disks are fired to Roman-style crispy perfection in a wood-burning oven. The signature Volante pie is a margherita, stacked with prosciutto di parma and sun-dried tomatoes ($16). Dissolve the sea's ionic bonds with a Sicilian-sea-salted circle (marinara, garlic, anchovies, Sicilian sea salt, $12) or touch multiple types of cheese on the Bianca, crafted with fontina, chenel goat cheese, arugula, thyme, local cow's milk mozzarella, and bufala milk mozzarella ($15). As a mozzarella bar, Volante champions the soft, milky ropes and curdles; choose a type of mozzarella to try (Burrata D.O.P costs $15, locally made cow's milk varieties cost $8) and accompany it with zucchini salad, Florida tomatoes, olives, capers, organic arugula, and more. Salads, sandwiches, paninis, and a weekly changing selection of pasta (try gnocchi Bolognese for $12 on Sundays) round out Pizza Volante's menu into a melty cheese wheel rolling down a marinara hill and leaving rich cheese deposits in its wake.

Metro Bistro's executive chef artfully assembles a menu that focuses on the simplicity and seasonality of local, organic ingredients. Beef, such as the house-smoked NY strip carpaccio ($15), is organic and grass fed. Metro Bistro's chickpea cakes pile-drive organic avocado, butter beans, red onions, and tomatoes before delivering the knockout blow of organic lemon vinaigrette ($15). Grilled, wild-caught mahi swims in shaved organic fennel and organic watercress with organic cilantro drizzle ($17). A tongue-tickling selection of wine and organic beers slakes the thirst of parched humans and experimenting flamingoes.
