Torno Subito Miami. The historic landmark constructed in 1936, was re-developed by Stambul Development with a mission in mind: to revive the past and build the future of Downtown by reinstating the notoriety of Flagler Street to become the center of activity it once was.
CULINARY CONCEPT HIGHLIGHTS BY CHEF: Massimo Bottura: A concept brought from Dubai, Torno Subito, means “be right back” in Italian. Massimo Bottura, world renowned three-Michelin star chef, named the concept after an exhibit by artist Maurizio Cattelan. The art?—a sign at the door of the art gallery “Torno Subito” only with no one ever to return, and the line of art enthusiasts left wrapped around the corner. It’s this kind of playful irony that pulses through the veins of Torno Subito—Think authentic Italian food that brings you straight to the kitchen of your Italian nona (the one you wish you had) in a whimsical modern setting that radiates color. In fact, the design concept is inspired by Bottura’s childhood beach vacations to Rimini. Michelle Bernstein: James Beard Award Winning Chef, Michelle Bernstein was thrilled by the response to her fried chicken at Michy’s and this became the catalyst for the creation of Michy’s Chicken Shack. This concept is bringing the most delectable and decadent selection of fried (and not) chicken available anywhere. “Our inspirations are far reaching and represent many cultures and techniques because we wanted to reflect our community in our food, and we are driven to create comfort food that is satisfying and affordable,” said
