I had a half rack of succulent ribs. Next to them lies a generous portion of pulled pork, its rich flavor enhanced by hours of slow smoking.

The “mean beans,” a savory blend of ground beef and baked beans, provide a hearty and satisfying addition to your meal. And let’s not forget the green beans, adding a touch of freshness to balance the richness of the meats.

The service was friendly and I enjoyed the meal. Would be happy to try some more items on the menu.

When you travel sometimes you have hours to wait until your journey continues to its next destination. It is surprising that with how large Miami International Airport is that the food selection in my opinion is below par. That was until I finally tried Ku-Va in MIA North Terminal, Concourse D area. I had Beef Empanadas and Grilled chicken breast marinated with garlic, pepper and tropical juices. Served with rice, black beans & sweet plantains. They won’t win any awards, but I will tell you it is probably the best dining choice in MIA.
