The Collective Plate

Open for a little less than 6 months, Shokudo found a perfect home just a few blocks north of the Design District in Miami – NE 2nd Avenue and 47th Street. Shokudo is an Asian Bistro that specializes in mixing some of the most popular dishes in the Asian cuisine with a modern flare, like […]

Always on the hunt for authentic Asian cuisine, I stumbled upon this Korean restaurant located in Weston, FL. Myung Ga Tofu and Barbecue is an authentic Korean restaurant serving up the west side of Broward county. Personally, it’s rather difficult to find authentically good restaurants on this side of town, so this restaurant is a […]

I have been looking for a really good noodle place ever since I moved here a little over year ago. I’ve been to a few spots but nothing lived up to the noodles I had in NYC… until now. MOMI opened its doors December 1st, in a small space off S Miami ave in Brickell. I got the […]

Oh, the holidays! It’s been almost a year since we all started The Collective Plate and we’ve become quite the little family. We have our quirks and our bad days, but our love for great food and great company has made for a fantastic start. Since we were all so busy during Christmas, we went […]

After a long day at work, is there really anything better than a good beer with awesome friends? Ft. Lauderdale’s Riverside Market is just the place for that with wall to wall chilled beer fridges and a ton of comfortable couches. Plus, they have a great food menu that has a little bit of everything […]

The holidays are here and we have to admit that we love this time of year. It’s the time for hectic shopping trips, present-wrapping parties, cooking meals and endless baking (ok, this one might be optional). This year you can give the gift of a great meal and spend some real quality time with your […]

It is marinated in a sweet fruit sauce then barbequed to perfection.  At Myung Ga, your dish is accompanied by a few side dishes such as kimchee, flavorful bean sprouts, and a refreshing green salad topped with a sweet […]

As a seasonal pass holder, I have had the privilege to go to Disney World countless of times. Many times, only riding one or two rides (sometimes none) and just eating the entire trip. If you had the option to eat in 11 different countries in Epcot, you’d do the same too! Disney has the […]

Welcome to another edition of A Full Plate! Due to busy schedules, it had been awhile since the entire team had a chance to enjoy a meal together. This time we headed to Dos Caminos for some tasty Mexican fare and the chance to catch up! Remember, bigger is better – enlarge for a more […]

Brunch is easily anyone’s most enjoyable meal of the week. My favorite kind of brunches are the ones that are long and spent with friends and tasty drinks. The ideal location is a space that’s comfortable and inviting with a staff that’s similar. Mark and I found this and food that’s more than blog-worthy at […]
