Ode To Miami

Miami will forever have my heart for the simple fact that it is a beautiful international city with so much culture. I was born in Miami and will forever consider it home no matter where I move I will always miss it. 

           Breakfast: Green Street Cafe needs no introduction. A Miami staple, you'll find both tourists and locals enjoying the Coconut or Nutella French Toast. 

            Lunch: NIU. A friendly, family-owned Catalan style kitchen. Order the Ous, Tomato soup, Octopus, and Catch of the day (inquire for the Dorada fish)... trust me.

            Dinner: Swine. Although Miami is heavily influenced by the massive Latin American population, you can count on Swine for a classic yet innovative American meal. You must try the swine burger, or the French Onion Filet Mignon. Order a  side of cornbread, Mac & cheese, and or corn for a complete satisfying meal.

Honorable Mentions: Pubbely (Sushi), Coyo Taco, Lokal (Burgers), Upland, Hillstone, Fogo de chao, Via Emilia 9 (Pasta)

Going out: Wynwood is a cool sight seeing spot for cool art, South Beach has cool events late at night
