SuViche Doral is a vibrant food destination where east meets west

CBS News20-06-2025
In the heart of CityPlace Doral, there's a vibrant and fun food destination that represents a fusion of where East meets West in the most delicious way possible.
SuViche Doral, one of four locations for this growing local brand, represents more than just a restaurant — it's a celebration that tells the story of Peru's rich culinary heritage.
The name itself tells the tale. According to Chef Alvaro Machado, "SuViche means 'sushi and ceviche,'" revealing the little secret behind the restaurant's unique concept that also features hot dishes alongside their signature offerings.
The atmosphere at SuViche is pure fun, featuring a colorful, playful design that doesn't take itself too seriously. The restaurant's swing chairs allow diners to literally swing while they eat, creating an interactive dining experience that sets it apart from traditional restaurants.
The design reminds visitors of the colors of Peru, especially with decorative ropes that create an authentic Peruvian restaurant atmosphere. Machado notes that the restaurant serves a perfect blend of the surrounding business community and local families, reflecting Doral's strong family-oriented community.
Customer Fernando Gonzalez praised the experience, saying the food is great, the service is awesome, and the waitstaff is super helpful in explaining the menu completely.
SuViche's new happy hour, cleverly called "Saucy Hour," offers 50% off select drinks and features a new menu of crave-worthy bites.
The crispy wonton tacos, which include spicy tuna, spicy salmon, and pork belly, are priced at $12 and have become a customer favorite for their perfect texture, seasoning, and fresh fish.
Brunch is also a highlight at SuViche, featuring bottomless mimosas priced at $18 per person. The brunch menu showcases the restaurant's creative fusion approach with several standout dishes:
Chicken and Camote Waffles: Sweet and savory combination featuring panko-fried all-natural chicken served with housemade sweet potato waffle mix and maple syrup

Location and Hours

Brunch is served on Saturdays and Sundays, with an extended happy hour on weekends from 12 p.m. to 7 p.m., and during weekdays from 3 p.m. to 7 p.m. The restaurant offers a fantastic taste of international fusion cuisine right in the heart of Doral's dining scene.

Top Sushi Arrives in London, Courtesy of the Team Behind Dorian

Notting Hill keeps giving London diners reasons to come back and feast. The neighborhood, internationally famous for its annual carnival, Portobello Road antiques market and that eponymous movie, has more recently become known as one of the city's top dining areas. That's thanks to a slew of openings including, most recently, the country-stylish Fat Badger pub and Jackson Boxer's neighborhood spot, Dove. One of the early attention-grabbing restaurants among this latest wave is Dorian; its reputation for modern bistro-forward fare and an expansive wine list has morphed into a zeitgeist-defining, perennially packed Beckham hangout. Now, the duo behind Dorian, Chris D'Sylva and chef Max Coen, are following a different formula. Their newest spot is Eel Sushi Bar, located right across the street from their starry freewheeling bistro. The 12-seat counter (with six more spots outdoors) is using a high turnover formula— seatings are one hour—to accommodate both reservations and walk-ins from noon until 10 p.m. And the restaurant is already filling a sizeable gap in London's mid price sushi scene.

My First America

These were my father's books; they were not meant for me. But their paperback covers, with images of strapping men waging war and gorgeous couples waging you-know-what, held great allure for a shy boy versed in neither of those life skills. So, one day — I must have been around 13 — I pulled the first novel in the series off the shelf. It was 'The Bastard,' by John Jakes. Almost immediately, I was captivated. In part for the naughty bits, sure. But that first book and the ones that followed — 'The Rebels,' 'The Seekers,' 'The Furies,' 'The Titans,' 'The Warriors,' 'The Lawless' and, finally, 'The Americans' — also offered me a romanticized and tantalizing history of the United States, one that appealed to my sense of adventure, of right and wrong, of longing for a country that was not yet mine. I had no idea then, as I read the books in the mid-1980s, that Jakes's eight-volume, multigenerational saga about the Kents, an American family whose lives span the Revolutionary era to the late-19th century, had been a sensation in the United States just a few years earlier. Published between 1974 and 1979 to mark the 200th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence, Jakes's American Bicentennial Series was wildly popular, even spawning tacky television versions (imagine William Shatner and Kim Cattrall in Colonial garb). Together, the books would sell 55 million copies. My family emigrated from Peru to the United States in the mid-1970s, just in time for my father to join the Jakes craze. It's easy to see why Americans embraced this story. The Kents are dashing and brave and principled and passionate, pausing their honorable fighting and copious copulating to ponder big ideas about duty and nation, and to wrestle with the choices brought on by the wealth and influence the family amasses. Their motto — 'take a stand and make a mark' — has a whiff of noblesse oblige to it, but why not? For a country emerging from the self-doubt of Vietnam and the shame of Watergate, some celebratory historical fiction must have been a comforting way to blow out 200 candles. A year from now, the United States will reach another big anniversary of independence. Intense debates have already begun over how we should mark America's 250th — what history will be told, which heroes will be honored, whether celebration or introspection should have pride of place, how to commemorate the founding at a moment when our foundations are under stress. In search of answers, I decided to try Jakes and the Kents once more. I wanted to see if the books that inspired so many Americans 50 years ago could offer some help for another apprehensive age. And selfishly, I wanted to relive the Kent story, some 5,000 pages worth, to see whether my old fascination endured. Want all of The Times? Subscribe.

‘Nobu' Review: Japanese Celebrity Chef Gets a Food Doc That Plays Like a Branded Advertisement

Among the world's most famous chefs, Nobu Matsuhisa makes for a wildly interesting cinematic subject — or at least, he would in a more accomplished film. From documentarian Matt Tyrnauer, 'Nobu' lays out the factual bullet points of Matsuhisa's early life in Japan, his fledging business in Peru, and eventually, his success in LA and New York City. However, the movie often brushes past what might have been its most intriguing moments in favor of an unobtrusive hagiography. It approaches dramatic rigor and visual intrigue in only the briefest of scenes, often far too late into its runtime. The opening images of 'Nobu' are enticing: mouth-watering extreme closeups of freshly prepared gourmet sushi and sashimi bathed in golden light, prepared by an expert hand. However, this is the first and last time the food in this food documentary feels like the central focus. There's much talk about preparation, experimentation and the ways that Matsuhisa broke new ground, blending zesty Peruvian ingredients with otherwise rigid Japanese cuisine. As several food critics note, the world-renowned chef does not do fusion. However, there are only so many repeated shots of cilantro being carefully laid on sliced yellowtail one can stomach before the idea starts to feel rote. Perhaps the movie could've fused few more sources of inspiration. More from Variety Mariska Hargitay Joined by Cher, Jamie Lee Curtis and 'Law & Order' Co-Stars at Tribeca Festival's 'My Mom Jayne' Premiere 'Kites' Review: Set in the Streets of Rio de Janeiro, Tribeca Discovery Offers a Sweet Leap Into Fantasy 'Yanuni' Review: A Thrilling, Romantic Documentary About Brazil's Fight for Indigenous Land For a film about a chef so revolutionary, 'Nobu' is often bland and traditional. It relies on familiar talking-head interviews and the occasional archival footage in order to paint its Wikipedia portrait of a culinary legend. And while its interviewees are occasionally family members, they're just as often stakeholders in the global Nobu franchise, including actor Robert De Niro. The movie spends so much time inside fancy boardrooms, and on footage of luxurious new Nobu restaurants and high-end hotels that it leaves little time for Matsuhisa himself and the struggles he's endured. At one point, he mentions having contemplated suicide, but the film moves on from this subject within seconds. The further 'Nobu' goes on, the more it becomes a highlight reel of the most opulent locations in the restaurateur's portfolio, with experiences sure to be out of most viewers' reach. Beyond a point, it plays like a sprawling timeline graphic of company history, something one might expect to see at a flagship McDonald's. Its bare-bones, standardized approach feels too inorganic, and too conveyor-belt-processed, to meld with Matsuhisa's culinary style, or his outlook on his art — which the movie also frequently brushes past. It isn't until Matsuhisa is seen catching up with fellow celebrity chef Wolfgang Puck that the movie briefly features an enticing conversation on the two figureheads' philosophies on food, but this also barely lasts. Matsuhisa is seen to be fluent in Japanese, English and Spanish in the film, and his travels appear to take him through challenging learning experiences, but these are often reduced to fleeting recollections supported by one old photograph per location. 'Nobu' affords little focus to how its subject's travels informed his hybrid worldview, or his ceaseless, granular drive for perfection, to the point of driving his subordinates mad. There's likely a good movie somewhere on the cutting room floor, since these ideas make brief appearances, but that they're seldom explored speaks to a film whose roughest edges have been sanded down. Matsuhisa is flesh and blood, and tragic events revealed late in the runtime might make you wish you got to know him better. However, these misfortunes circle back to ideas that the movie had long ago brushed past already. In theory, following any of these threads might open up intimate issues of professional lifestyle and mental health, which have long plagued the high-stress gourmet restaurant industry — and have seemingly affected Matsuhisa too. But 'Nobu' is a film whose most lucid conclusion is that its titular restaurant is worth your hard-earned cash. So, anytime it approaches a challenging topic, it treats emotional investment as a piping hot stove, instinctively backs away and pours cold water all over any promise of feeling something real.
