maybe mb

An impromptu trip to Palm Beach last weekend lead us to try Michelle Bernstein's new restaurant MB at the Omphoy Hotel. Lets start with the food and work our way backward, the food was hit or miss. Amazingness was found in the Burrata appetizer laced with paper thin slices of Serrano ham and figs and the main dish Corvina cooked with Foie made for a sweet meaty dish. Other appetizers that was a crowd pleaser were the spinach and feta croquettes and Foie Gras was great! Our friends had the Curry Snapper as a main dish which lacked curry flavor and was a bit bland  as for food negatives I will stop there but, I would definitely go back to try her friend chicken!

Ambience was so weird. Yes, I said weird the hotel is new and feels totally out of place and during construction and interior design they forgot a vibe. The restaurant is a far cry from her corky decor at Michy's or downtown Sr. Martinez. Its cold and dark. Service was great very friendly. People watching in Palm Beach is priceless. 

All in all it was worth the try but, like her other restaurants it's hit or miss.
