Eleventh Street Pizza serves up two kinds of pies that both are stellar representations of their pizza genres. While a monster slice of NYC-style pep does a great job soaking up late-night drinking, the finest things here are thick Sicilian slices, big towers of dough covered with cupped pepperoni, wild maitake mushrooms with caramelized onions and a Provencal number with roasted red onions, confit garlic and pepperoncini. Time Out tip: The Japanese milk bread garlic rolls are both sweet and savory, so much so that you’ll probably want a second order for dessert.

The Biltmore Hotel in Coral Gables was built in 1926 by George Merrick, who is known as the founder of Coral Gables. After opening, the hotel quickly became a big deal, hosting fashion shows and galas, along with famous guests such as the Duke and Duchess of Windsor, Al Capone and Franklin D. Roosevelt. Ghost stories began when gangster Thomas "Fatty" Walsh was shot and killed at a party there in 1929. During World War II, the Biltmore was turned into a military hospital. Once the war was over, it continued being a hospital for veterans. It was then completely abandoned from 1968 to 1983. Its storied history of murder, hospital occupancy and its abandonment led a resident guest to tell ghost stories to visitors every Thursday night in the Biltmore’s lobby for 10 years.

Suite Habana Cafe Cuban coffee menus have gone largely unchanged in Miami for decades (Bustelo, white sugar, cow milk, you know the stuff). Suite Habana came onto the scene to change this. Owner Nayelis Delisle designed a blend based on memories of her sipping coffee with her abuela in post-revolution Cuba, sourcing beans from Brazil and Colombia to create a dark roast from memory. The espumita here is created with brown sugar, and you can get your cortados, cafe con leches (also iced!) with oat, almond or virtually any other kind of milk. The space is light and airy, filled with a healthy mix of friendly locals, curious travelers and yes, if you’re lucky, Joe Jonas.
