Puerto Rican reggaeton star and partners open Japanese-Latin restaurant in Miami
There's a new restaurant serving Japanese-Latin fusion in Wynwood. Casa Crudos is a collaboration between Puerto Rican reggaeton star Zion (formerly of Zion & Lennox, which disbanded last year) and twins Daniel and JC Rosario. The restaurant aims to blend the flavors of Tokyo and the Caribbean. The project is about legacy, says Zion, whose real name is Felix G. Ortiz-Torrez. 'We've made waves through music, and now we're channeling that same energy into hospitality, something that's personal, fresh and deeply rooted in our culture.' The design of the restaurant virtually screams Wynwood, with an indoor industrial feel with exposed ceilings and colorful lights, and an outdoor patio flanked by colorful murals. The menu ranges from tiraditos — salmon and the intriguing tuna parmesan — to ceviches, crispy rice to bao buns (pork belly, salmon, short rib). There are a variety of sashimi options, too, as well as rolls, including a barbecue truffle unagi roll. Shareable plates are also an option: shishito peppers, gyoza dumplings, chicken wings, mussels and more. Most items are just below or just above $20. There are also items from the grill, including sea bass, pork belly, barbecue ribs and the most expensive item on the menu, the ribeye ($50). Casa Crudos Where: 2445 N. Miami Ave., Miami Hours: 5 p.m.-midnight Monday-Friday; noon-midnight Saturday-Sunday; happy hour 5-9 p.m. Monday-Friday More information: @casacrudos
