MIAMI (CBSMiami) — There’s a place inside Virgin MiamiCentral called La Estación American Brasserie where the food is just as “on track” as the trains themselves!
La Estación, which means “the station“ is a 240-seat, 10,000-square-foot restaurant and bar, created by the Juvia group featuring private event spaces, a fun decor, and a large open kitchen.
Guests can dine in the full-service restaurant, or “grab a sushi roll and go.” They can also grab a drink at the bar or get coffee and dessert.
The food is all American, but there’s a hint of France in the dishes thanks to Executive Chef Pierre Morat.
“The idea was an American Brasserie atmosphere so we have some American most classic items, like sliders, pizza, roasted chicken but then we try to bring a French twist with some techniques, especially in the sauces,” said Chef Pierre.
