Welcome back, weekend. But above all, welcome back, Mr. Guy Fieri, who's in town this weekend for the annual South Beach Wine & Food Festival.

A year between running into Fieri -- and his bitchin' wrap-around shades, bleach-blond locks, radical flame-print shirts, and sweet goatee -- late at night at Mac's Club Deuce is becoming far too long to stomach. We want to run into the Diners, Drive-ins and Dives star on South Beach 365 days a year --give or take 150 for filming.

If you're reading this, Guy, forget about Flavor Town, buddy. You can be our mayor instead. Fieri 2013!

Anyhow, here are the ten best things to do in Miami this week, y'all.
