Azur Restaurant Description:
This was the restaurant Key West foodies were waiting for: chefs Michael Mosi and Drew Wenzel on their own stage. Azur is the restaurant the two friends dreamed up during long, wine-and-food-infused travels through Italy and the Mediterranean. The dishes and flavors radiate sunshine and sun-warmed earth, with ingredients imported when it matters (cheeses, cured meats, honey, olives, oils) and local when possible (pumpkin swordfish, black grouper). Start the day with Portuguese sweet-bread french toast with caramelized pears, honey, cured ham, mascarpone and candied pecans. For lunch, try the grilled flatbread pizza with crème fraîche, house-cured salmon, capers and caviar. For dinner, Mosi prepares a lovingly slow-cooked confit leg and seared breast of duck with wild mushrooms; giant prawns "a la plancha" flash-fired to retain sweetness, and grilled local swordfish served over braised escarole. Expect a wine list that's as food-friendly and worldly as the restaurant's owners.
