If you get up to the Miami area, you have got to try Rascal House. It's a Jewish deli-style place, with amazing sandwiches, matzo ball soup, and hot entrees like stuffed cabbage. The pickles on the table are outstanding (especially the pickled green tomatoes), and the bakery goods are very nice, too. For brunch, eggs with Nova lox and blintzes were very good, and the basket of breads that appeared as soon as we sat down more than made up for the wait.

Where I live on the US West Coast, we don't have anything that comes close to this place, it offered great food and a fun experience. We liked it so much for lunch that we went back for brunch. It's on a main drag, either going to South or North beach areas, and shouldn't be hard to find.
