Posted on May 1, 2019April 8, 2021 by EdmundTijerina.com

Long before Savor opened its doors, its lineage cast an intimidating shadow.

South Beach? “Here’s the problem: people read about these different approaches to diet,” says Elizabeth Johnson, chef/owner of Pharm Table. “It’s like picking a random book from the bookshelf and not knowing what’s in it.” So start by keeping…
