The Heart of Strawberry Season
Florida is known as the “Winter Strawberry Capital of the World,” with strawberry season typically peaking from December through March. These plump, juicy berries are grown with care, bursting with flavor and vibrant color, making them the star of any dessert.
At The Polished Chef, we pride ourselves on incorporating fresh, local ingredients into our menus. With strawberries at their sweetest, it’s the perfect time to craft indulgent dishes that highlight their natural beauty.

Beyond their irresistible taste, strawberries are a nutritional powerhouse. Packed with vitamin C, antioxidants, and fiber, they’re as good for your body as they are for your taste buds.
