Since
opening his first restaurant, Mark’s
Place, in Miami in 1988, Mark Militello has continually
been hailed as the chef responsible for putting South
Florida on
the national culinary map with his innovative contemporary
American cuisine.
A
steady stream of the nation’s top awards have
been bestowed upon Militello, including a James Beard Award
for "Best Regional Chef," Food & Wine magazine’s
"Ten Best Chefs in America" and a Distinguished Restaurant
Award from Conde Nast Traveler, among many others.
Now,
Militello oversees four restaurants bearing his name, from
South Beach
to Palm Beach.
Each
restaurant prepares a daily menu based on ingredients available
that day in the local marketplace.
