CORAL GABLES. Chef Norman Van Aken is credited with developing Florida's inventive New World cuisine, which has since become a regional staple. This "Floribbean" fare melds local ingredients, European culinary techniques, and Caribbean and Latin American influences. As a result, dishes may unite curious items, but they thrill in the execution. For example, Van Aken's long-lived restaurant sears foie gras in curacao and serves it on French toast! Impeccable service and a well-chosen wine list complete the picture.
