Vida: Fontainebleau Resort

Vida is a restaurant within the fabulous Fontainebleau resort on the coast of Florida. Like most other resort restaurants, the food is pricey but you get what you pay for. If you drink, your meal could be well over $100 for two. All in all, the quality of the food was incredible, the service was perfect, and the portion sizes were, surprisingly, large. I ordered the Vida Burger--$17. It came piled high with bacon, guacamole, red onion, and mushrooms. The beef patties were seasoned to perfection with what tasted like freshly ground black pepper. I have to say, it was one of the best burgers I have ever tasted. I scarfed down the burger leaving no room for my sky-high pile of fries. If you would like to try the desserts (which looked divine), my recommendation would be to split your entree since it's more than one can handle anyways.

Here are some pictures of a catered event by Fontainebleau. I don't know which of the restaurants actually prepared this food, nonetheless, it was also very good.
