"Fresh, simple, pure." This is the philosophy behind the food and drink in the Michael's genuine ® pub, the first American Gastropub on Lake, brought you by James Beard award-winning chef Michael Schwartz. According to the Chief, the key to delicious food starts simply with the highest quality ingredients. "We take a lot of time and want the best product, source, building relationships with suppliers." Thick-cut potato chips served with fried onion dip, deviled eggs shaved fennel salad and pub boards, with artisanal cheeses and salami go good food and drink hand-in-hand.

For Chief Schwartz, its driving force, the word is "real". One could argue that Schwartz is the father of Miami's local seasonal restaurant scene, with its restaurants, leads Bistro of the city since 2007, starting with the neighborhood Michael real food & drink and culminating most recently with the design district first elegant American dining room, the Cypress room farm-to-table movement developed. The admission in the partnership with Royal Caribbean 2011, Schwartz brought local, family-run businesses in the Cruise Line Supply Chain, his menu at 150 Central Park, to support the upscale venue on OASIS class ships. And now he grows the relationship with Michaels real Pub. He says "the word I wanted to use 'Real' with regard to the restaurant, and it is the measure of everything, what we do, we use to inform Diners".

His commitment to the superior small ingredients extends over the plate. Diners can - including classic American ALE of the chef, Michael's genuine ® home brew--drinking craft beers, or for those with sight set on hops, there is a curated list of wine, cocktails and spirits, including Bourbon whiskey flights. "Working with Royal Caribbean, I sourcing my focus on craftsmanship and craft can hold beverages," said Schwartz. "The real Michael is real, without compromise."
