Hyde Beach Hollywood style found its way to South Beach in June 2012 when the SLS Hotel opened at the corner of Collins and 17th, and brought the ultra-exclusive Hyde nightclub with it. The daytime pool party is always a riot. We’re talking CO2 cannons, go-go dancers, fist-pumping out-of-towners and cocktails the size of football players. From Thursday to Sunday, the action continues well past sunset, when scenesters hunker down within the whimsical, Philippe Starck-designed club for A-list acts like Guy Gerber, Claptone and Kaskade.

Man why is Miami such an unprofessional city?! Legit sitting in a hospital room at Kendall Regional Hospital after a health scare listening to the nurses and cleaning crew talking about which coworker is cheating on who and whose fucking who and it got me thinking, I’ve worked in Hospitals up north before, we can be a funky bunch, but damn we atleast tried to be professional at work. Nowhere in Miami that I’ve been is there much professionalism at work places, workers are seemingly rude/hostile at most places outside of Brickell, most everyone has an attitude, it’s legit the polar opposite of any major city in America. My Cardiologist called me Bro and had a fade haircut 🤣😫 This city is on some shit man.

The Only Theater In Miami Where You Can Watch “Twisters” In 4DX. And if you haven’t experienced the immersive thrill for yourself, don’t fret! The film is returning to 4DX for one week only, starting August 30. And it won’t be the only disaster film on the bill — 1996’s “Twister” is getting the same treatment, making for an epic double feature! What is 4DX? Unlike your average theater experience, 4DX practically puts you in the film with the help of special effects. You’ll sit in a motion-enabled seat that will move you along with every twist (see what we did there) and turn on the screen. And when a tornado comes into frame, you’ll be met with wind, rain, fog and scents perfectly synced with the film. Basically, you’ll be storm chasing alongside Daisy Edgar-Jones and Glen Powell!

JAGUAR SUN Downtown Jaguar Sun is probably our favorite place in Miami. Some may say it’s a cocktail bar, others, a restaurant with an awesome pasta selection.

Our favorite dishes include the Hokkaido Scallop, the Wagyu Beef Carpaccio with the most delish charred leek aioli, Agnolotti with blue crab, and the Spicy Rigatoni. Make sure to ask if there are any new dishes or off-menu items, sometimes they’ll have something to share with you.
