Israeli-owned bistro to open next month at St. Tropez

Israeli bistro café Aroma Espresso Bar is planning a new 3,000-square-foot indoor and outdoor space in the Shops of St.Tropez in Sunny Isles Beach, and a grand opening is scheduled for next month, according to the property owner. Aroma will be among the first tenants to open shop at the 28,000-square-foot retail mall, which was built along with the three, luxury St. Tropez condominium towers nearby. The restaurant, designed by Studio Gaia with environmentally friendly interior fixtures, will serve baked pastries, sandiwches, salads, beer and wine. Aroma has more than 90 branches in Israel, as well as outposts in Toronto and New York City. TRD
