"We didn't choose Miami; Miami chose us," says three-Michelin-star chef Massimo Bottura about the inception of his and his wife Lara Gilmore's restaurant, Torno Subito, slated to open on the rooftop of Julia & Henry's in Miami in February 2024. 

The restaurant will bring bold colors and classic Italian cuisine to the historic building located at 200 E. Flagler St., which is home to the gourmet food hall and seven-story entertainment complex, Julia & Henry's. New Times caught up with the famous couple who were recently in Miami to promote their third book collaboration, Slow Food, Fast Cars: Casa Maria Luigia – Stories and Recipes, published by Phaidon.
