Pastis Miami is all the French we need in Wynood. Tucked away in its own little outdoor paradise they offer a range of classic french dishes with my favorite being the Pâté de Campagne. Never settle for anything less than an evening of great company, profiteroles and martinis, ma chère. 🍸

The Oldest House In Miami The Barnacle, a real historical jewel in the heart of Coconut Grove, is one of the oldest buildings in Miami-Dade County standing in its original location! Today, the Barnacle Historic State Park is a popular spot for both history enthusiasts and those looking for a beautiful view. It is open to the public, offering a unique experience to go back in time to the history of Coconut Grove and all of South Florida. Aside from guided tours, there are concerts, yoga classes, movie screenings, picnic dates and more events to choose from at the site. Or you can simply lay back on the lawn and enjoy the same view as Munroe did with his family back in the early 1900s. The Barnacle Society Inc., a nonprofit volunteer organization, works all year to set up fun programming and preserve the historic state park.

Discover the Secluded Picnic Islands in Miami! 🏝️
Avatar PeakACity

PeakACity

If you are looking for a secluded island in Miami to spend the day and disconnect, then here is one of my favorite spots! The Picnic Islands are a small group of islands within the city of Miami. They are located just north of Biscayne Island in Biscayne Bay, just east offshore from the Edgewater and Upper Eastside districts of the city. The islands are uninhabited, but several of the group have beaches where boaters and picnickers frequent. They are generally named for the mainland city parks that they are located next to in the bay. The southernmost one is Pace Picnic Island, located off Pace Park. There are also Morningside Picnic Islands Park and Legion Picnic Islands Park located directly off of Morningside Bayfront Park and Legion Park, respectively.

Exploring Pastis: A Taste of NYC in Miami's Vibrant Wynwood
Avatar The Hungry Post

The Hungry Post

MIAMI’S BEST RESTAURANT WITH “AMBIENTE” Where the vibe is more important but the food is still good The iconic NYC staple, Pastis, expanded its presence from the Meatpacking District to the vibrant neighborhood of Wynwood. The restaurant stays true to its New York roots, offering the same menu filled with classic Parisian bistro-style dishes and an incredible ambiance that won’t make you feel like you’re in Miami. You’re heading here for a chic lunch or dinner and sitting at their gorgeous outdoor patio decorated with ceiling fans, red patio umbrellas, and twinkly lights. We’d start with some drinks (of course), if you’re a spritz person looking to relax, start your meal with their St. Tropez Spritz made with St. Germain, lemon, aperitif, sparkling wine, and strawberries. But if you’ve had a long day (or week) then kick off your meal with a tiny Le Petit Pickle martini. As for the food, we like to start with a few hors d’oeuvres for the table. We usually go for the Tuna Carpaccio with lemon vinaigrette, Escargots with garlic-parsley butter, Onion Soup, and Crispy Artichokes with garlic aioli. Moving on to the entrées we love their Chicken Paillard with almonds and picholine olives, and we always love to get an order of the Moules Frites with white wine and garlic for the table (don’t forget to dip the bread in the sauce). If you still have a little room, the grand finale is the airy Profiteroles, delicately filled with velvety smooth vanilla ice cream, and generously drizzled with warm chocolate sauce.

You’ve probably heard of Vizcaya Museum and Gardens before. But what do you think I meant when I said that its gardens were designed much like a home? Well, Colombian-born architect, Diego Suarez, separated the garden into different sections and created a unique atmosphere to each location. That gave the feel of being like an outdoor home! Some of these “rooms” included the Rose Garden, the Maze Garden, the Garden Mound, and more. Make sure to visit Vizcaya, it is amazing Italian-inspired villa!

Discovering Little Havana Through Local Information

Little Havana is a vibrant and culturally rich neighborhood situated near the heart of Miami. Known for its pulsating energy, captivating art, and delectable cuisine, this enclave offers a unique blend of American and Cuban culture. By exploring local anonymous insights on Kikihub, you can unearth some hidden gems, secret spots, and trending discussions that will make your visit to Little Havana unparalleled.

Anonymous Insights from the Heart of the Community

The true essence of Little Havana can be best experienced through the eyes of its locals. On Kikihub, you can access a treasure trove of local information and anonymous insights that provide an authentic perspective on the community. One popular local secret is the best time to visit the Calle Ocho Walk of Fame. While it's a must-see, knowledgeable insiders recommend going early in the morning to avoid the throngs of tourists and truly appreciate the vibrant murals and historical markers.

Another insider tip shared by long-time residents is about the Jazz nights hosted at Ball & Chain, an iconic venue with a rich history encapsulating the spirit of Little Havana. Live jazz performances usually kick off on Thursday evenings, and they offer a purely uncommercialized, immersive cultural experience.

Authentic Cuisine and Hidden Culinary Treasures

Little Havana's culinary landscape is one of its most alluring aspects, with a plethora of eateries serving authentic Cuban dishes. While Versailles is a well-known hotspot, anonymous insights on Kikihub lead you to lesser-known yet equally delightful options. Locals rave about La Camaronera, a low-key seafood joint where you can savor the freshest fried fish sandwiches. For the ultimate in traditional Cuban flavors, venturing to Doce Provisions is a real treat, especially if you’re in the mood for indulgent croquetas and mouth-watering ropa vieja.

For an off-the-beaten-path dessert experience, locals suggest venturing to Azucar Ice Cream Company. This unassuming ice cream shop specializes in artisanal flavors that are uniquely Cuban, such as Abuela Maria, a delightful mix of vanilla, guava, cream cheese, and Maria crackers. Only those in the know will tell you this is a perfect location to top off an evening in Little Havana.

Trending Discussions and Uncovered Events

Kikihub excels in spotlighting trending discussions and upcoming events that fly under the radar. A monthly farmers market is one such event that many tourists miss out on. You can support local artisans, savor street food, and listen to live music at the vibrant Viernes Culturales (Cultural Fridays) event. This is a perfect opportunity to immerse yourself in the diverse expressions of art and culture that Little Havana offers.

Another gem often discussed in local threads is the intimate and free outdoor movie nights held at Dominguez Park. This small park may not appear in many travel guides, but it's a favorite among locals for its cozy, community-driven atmosphere. Equipped with blankets and local snacks, it makes for a fantastic, relaxed evening.

Unseen Local Recommendations

Beyond the famous landmarks, there are numerous lesser-known spots steeped in history and culture that only the locals might guide you to. For instance, the Miami Hispanic Cultural Arts Center is a hidden treasure that features rotating exhibits from Latin American artists. If you’re looking to understand deeper layers of the community’s heritage, anonymous recommendations on Kikihub highlight this center as an enlightening stop.

For those interested in vintage shopping, the local consensus seems to favor a little-known shop called GUYandGIRL Boutique. Located in a cozy corner, this boutique offers a blend of vintage clothing and artisanal jewelry, making it the perfect spot for picking up unique souvenirs or gifts.

The Best of Travel with Real Opinions

To truly unlock the potential of your travel to Little Havana, you need more than just a list of attractions; you need real opinions. On Kikihub, seasoned travelers and locals leave unfiltered, honest reviews that can guide you to make informed choices. One resounding recommendation is taking a guided walking tour of Little Havana, but locals urge to book with smaller operators who give personalized experiences that delve into the hidden stories beyond the obvious landmarks.

Moreover, navigating transportation can be a bit tricky in Little Havana. Local advice stresses the use of the free trolley service for a convenient and cost-effective way to explore the area. These real opinions, combined with the genuine warmth and hospitality of the community, ensure a smooth and enriching journey through Little Havana.
