As the South Florida weather gets hotter, restaurants around the tri-county region are scrambling to infuse something fresh and cool into their menus. Like the inevitable turning of the clock, chefs and patrons alike seem to always want something new. Pastry Chef Matthew Petersen of Café Boulud explained, “We like to stay seasonal, to change up the menu with the seasons and keep it fresh.” Metromix scanned the area for something original and sweet to tempt the palette, specifically summer desserts. From the tang of citrus to the smooth tradition of ice cream, we found some treats sure to please.
