South Florida is the mango capital of the United
States. Every summer we celebrate with
everything mango. We may start the day
with mangoes over oatmeal, yogurt or cereal, or just a few eaten fresh over the
kitchen sink. Lunch may be a mango in a
green salad with tuna, mango salsa with chips or mangoes and cottage
cheese. For an afternoon snack a mango
milkshake or smoothie hits the spot.
Dinner may be a roast chicken with a mango glaze or a curried shrimp and
mango dish.
For the past eighteen years the epicenter of mango culinary cuisine occurs at Fairchild Tropical Botanic Garden in Miami. Top chefs of the area prepare a feast of a mango brunch that is so popular it sells out weeks before the event. Chef Allen Susser is the premier chef of the event. He revolutionized South Florida cuisine introducing mangoes at Chef Allen’s in Aventura, and creating new and delicious food combinations that were not seen before. Currently he is busy with many venues through his Chef Allen's Sustainable Consulting firm. The other top chefs of are an amazing bunch.
