Paola Bermudo

Paola Bermudo runs Foods Miami, one of South Florida's most useful Instagram food accounts for people who actually want to eat like a local. Based in the Miami–Fort Lauderdale area, she covers Coral Gables, Miami Beach, Doral, Kendall, Aventura, Key Biscayne, and Hollywood with a focus on restaurants, bakeries, and cafés that reward repeat visits.

Her top picks lean elegant and specific: Kojin in Coral Gables for Japanese, Erba and Casadonna for Italian, Galipán Bakehouse for Venezuelan bakery, El Desembarco for burgers in Miami Beach, Fujiya for ramen in Kendall, and WHSKD Matcha when she wants a café stop that lives up to the hype. Cuban, Peruvian, Brazilian, Thai, and Japanese-Peruvian cooking all appear alongside dessert and ice cream spots — a portrait of Miami's overlapping food cultures.

Paola's background in public relations and brand content shows in how cleanly she communicates a recommendation, but the value is the local knowledge underneath. Her Social Foodie profile turns that Miami map into something you can browse by neighborhood and cuisine when you're deciding where to go tonight.
