Chef Michelle Bernstein's Latin-Jewish 'Mishmosh'

Michelle Bernstein started cooking fusion food dishes long before “fusion” was a buzzword. The Miami chef, restaurant owner and TV personality made a name for herself combining flavors and techniques from her Latin-Jewish heritage. And it works. In 2008, the James Beard Foundation recognized her as the best chef in the South. In this conversation with The Zest producer Dalia Colón, Bernstein discusses how her Latin-Jewish heritage influences how she cooks, her favorite South Florida food trends and the restaurant meals she's missing during the pandemic.
