Whether it’s the frito misto appetizer or the house-made mushroom ravioli, Sublime Restaurant and Bar (1431 N. Federal Hwy., Ft. Lauderdale) delivers an authentic twist from the norm to satisfy vegan taste buds. Some popular dishes include the frito misto, fried crispy cauliflower stacked high and dipped in a sweet and savory chili sauce and the mushroom ravioli, daily home-made pasta served with a cashew cream and slow roasted tomato cream butter sauce. Specializing in gourmet cuisine, Sublimes’ award-winning vegetarian menu is completely cholesterol free and made with all natural ingredients.

Cathy Wood, 58, of Miami, was in the mood for something different and decided to give Sublime a try for the first time, she said she was impressed at how well the food was cooked and fulfilling despite it being animal-and-cholesterol free.

Here are four must-have dishes from residents who love to eat healthy and local in South Florida.
