YOU’RE IN STEEP
A New Tea Bar Has Arrived
There’s a new performance art/tea joint in town called Tea & Poets. You’ll find live music and the occasional spoken-word night there. But also, a tea bar. With concoctions like the Green Dragon, made with gunpowder green tea, lime, sugar and firewater bitters. Gunpowder and fire: what could go wrong?
FRIED AND TRUE
Michy’s Fried Chicken Is Back. True Story.
Sweet Liberty is now the only place you can indulge in plates of Michelle Bernstein’s famous buttermilk-marinated fried bird. And for $39, they’ll throw in a side, some dessert and one of their Tales of the Cocktail–approved drinks. Synergy, people. Synergy.
Thursday
LUNAR LANDING
Full-Moon-ing in a Brewery
What you’ll find at Concrete Beach’s full moon masquerade: —Beer. —3D projections. —Silent disco. —Telescopes and a live electricity demo by the Frost Museum of Science. Beer pairs well with knowledge.
Friday
CRO-MAGNON
It’s Practically Raining Croquetas Here
Croquetas: they’re arguably Miami’s primary source of sustenance. And on Friday night, 20 purveyors of the deliciously fried food ball will be competing for top honors. You’ll get to taste each one while enjoying Night Owl cookies, beer from Biscayne Bay Brewing and Cuban coffee. Strong secondary sources of sustenance.
Saturday
NEVER SAY DIE
It’s 11:30pm. Saturday Night. You’re...
… watching The Goonies in 35mm. At O Cinema Miami Beach. They’ll have beer and wine at the concession stand, too. Which is the preferred method of taking in the Truffle Shuffle in all of its glory.
Jackie Gutierrez-Jones finds unhyphenated names quaint. She believes that croquetas and gin cocktails are suitable precursors to running and hoisting heavy weights over one’s head.
