CG eating, bro

Here are 3 Coral Gables eateries I want to try over the next month or so. Hopefully I'll be able to tell you if they suck or not before September comes around, though I think these are the types of places I make it to because they close by the time I'm lurking hungrily around the hood.
Le Boudoir - All Purpose Dark seems to like this place- looks yums.
Whisk Gourmet - Apparently they serve local veggies, and I think I went to high school with the guy that they said owns it.
Theine Tea - I am obsessed with tea.
