<p>RIP, Ceviche Pisco Sours</p> <p>Talk about a sight that we all miss. The <b>Sra. Martinez</b> upstairs bar was arguably the first place in Miami where you could get a craft cocktail when it opened its doors in 2008. It’s also where Miami first learned of the talented cocktail master Julio Cabrera.</p>
<p>While the restaurant and it’s slightly hidden bar disappeared in 2012, we can thankfully still get Cabrera’s cocktails around town at places like retro Regent Cocktail Club.</p>

<p>See which ones they picked</p> <p>We asked some of Miami's top chefs and restauranteurs what spots around town they missed the most, here's what they had to say:</p>
<p><span><i>Nedal Ahmad </i>— Pao Town and Chow Down Grill</span></p>
<p><span><i>Daniel Serfer</i> — Always Red Light, more recently though Box Park.</span></p>
<p><span><i>Giorgio Rapicavoli </i>— New Chinatown in Sunset and Sra. Martinez</span></p>
<p><span><i>Todd Erickson</i> — I miss Joe Allen and Pubbelly Steak, funny enough both in the same location. I also miss World Resource Cafe as its closing marked the end of an era of independently owned/operated restaurants in Lincoln Road. </span></p>
<p><span><i>Aniece Meinhold</i> — Mosaico. It was a molecular Spanish restaurant back in the day - circa 2003-2004. The food was incredible! I worked there for two and half years; formed my perspective about food, wine and what I wanted to do with my life. We were ahead of our time. To this day, some of the best food this city's ever seen. </span></p>
<p><span><i>Jamie DeRosa</i> — Tudor House </span></p>
<p><span><i>Julian Baker</i> — Bond Street and Sra. Martinez</span></p>
<p><i>Jeremiah Bullfrog </i> — American Noodle Bar</p>
<p><i>Jose Mendin</i> <span> — La Broche, Norman's, Chef Allens</span></p>

<p>Hangover cure on a plate</p> <p>Ahhh, <b>Sustain</b>’s wet fries. The pile of freshly fried fries topped with a bone marrow gravy and served in a hot skillet was a favorite of many.</p>
<p>It was the now-defunct restaurant’s version of the classic poutine and became an instant hit during the restaurant short — but notable — run from 2010 to 2012.</p>

<p>Hails from 1944</p> <p>Look at those prices! Fifty cents for almost <i>everything</i>. This is a picture of <b>Tobacco Road’s</b> menu from 1944. The restaurant and watering hole, which held the city’s oldest liquor license, closed its doors in late 2014 to much fanfare and even a cover piece in the <i>New York Times</i>.</p>
<p>It promises to come back. When, however, remains to be seen.</p>
