Ten Fruits, downtown’s uber-popular eatery and juice bar, has just opened a new location at 2516 Ponce de Leon Boulevard in Coral Gables. Fresh-pressed juices and acai bowls oughta be a welcome addition to a neighborhood chock full of steakhouses and pork joints. The new spot, just steps from Miracle…
Wynwood’s murals are its prize characteristics, like so many colorful, eclectic medals in a gritty trophy case. And Janet Mueller’s bold, bright piece on the exterior of R House is a new addition to the lineup. The mural, as well as other art by Mueller and German painter Dietmar Brixy,…
Choices Cafe, Miami’s landmark vegan eatery, is closing the doors to its Brickell location. The popular spot is being forced to vacate because (surprise!) a developer has bought up the property. To announce the closure, the Choices team created a short, moving video about their move and their mission. See…
Early summer brings plenty of charms to Miami (fewer tourists, woohoo), and baby birds are another side effect of this sweltering season. Now is the time of year when wee ones are hatching out of eggs all over the place — followed sometimes by tumbling out of trees. But should…
The long, lazy days of summer are upon us. And with bikinis, bars, and beaches everywhere you turn, it’s easy as empanadas to blow your disposable income on cocktails and dreams. Luckily, it’s not impossible to enjoy summer without spending your life savings. Here’s a bunch of stuff you can…
If Cookie Monster wants to stick around long enough to hear Elmo’s voice change, he should probably cut back on the butter, eggs and sugar. Those chocolate chip cookies he inhales look a lot like supermarket-bought, mass produced crap. The blue man should totally switch to Simply Sharon’s Miami-made treats…
We all know Florida is weird. Those of us who are full-time inhabitants of this paradisiacal swampland know that better than anyone. But just how weird are we? Weirder than you ever could have imagined, even if you’re a devout follower of New Times’ stories tagged “WTF Florida.” Turns out,…
Miami Spice isn’t the only culinary game in town this summer, and with the rise of killer cuisine in South Florida’s City Beautiful, Coral Gables’ Restaurant Week is prime time for foodies to venture away from South Beach and midtown and into new territory. This Monday through June 29, 35…
Given that Florida is the Sunshine State, it’s semi-puzzling that Floridians don’t have a wider array of solar-powered stuff. Shouldn’t like everything be fueled by that burning ball of gas that keeps us all in killer tans? Well, at least one company is committed to harnessing the power of the…
Tits and ass. Cocks and balls. Knobs and bollocks. Whatever your sexual lexicon of choice, it had a home at this weekend’s X Run. The sex-themed obstacle 5K was three miles of blue balls, honey holes, prosthetic (and real) breasts, double-ended dildos, floating penises, and pretty much every other forbidden…
If you made it through the weekend without succumbing to heat stroke, congrats. Summer has officially arrived in the 305 and it’s hot as balls out there. Luckily you’re back in the air-conditioned comfort of your cube for another week, with nary a whiff of fresh air. But, come nighttime’s…
Let’s say you’re hot, tired, and ravenous after a long day of shopping for H&M sheath dresses and Victoria’s Secret thongs on Lincoln Road. But you’re vegan, and everywhere you look there are Cuban-inspired spots and pizza joints; tourist traps and overpriced meateries. What’s an herbivore to do? Thank the…
With medical marijuana on everyone’s lips (in more ways than one), people are buzzing about weed, hemp, cannabis, THC, CBD, and all kinds of other related terms that you might or might not understand. It’s OK — this is confusing stuff. Leave it to Cultist to offer a little clarity…
There’s something supersexy about Peruvian food. Even the dishes’ monikers have a certain sensuality — “ceviche” sounds way better than “marinated fish,” and “papas a la huancaína” is a huge improvement on “potatoes with cheese sauce.” And if titillating entrées such as those get your mouth watering, you’re in for…
These days, with a growing interest in home births, water births and other non-traditional baby arrival scenarios, Miami is coming up short for women looking for an alternative to old-school methodology. Not to mention the city’s shockingly high hospital C-section rate. To fill the gap, a local therapist and doula…
This weekend marks the unofficial start of grill season. But vegans are well aware that a summer barbecue invite carries an unspoken demand: Bring your own food, you meatless weirdo. ‘Cuz let’s be real — most folks aren’t using their prized Webers for eggplant and portobello, now are they? The…
So Memorial Day is fast approaching, and if you’re an adventuresome soul who’s sticking around for the weekend, you need to be thinking ahead. Planning is key when it comes to driving, parking, boozing, and, of course, eating. Come Monday, we’re betting you’ll be sunburned, hung-over, and desperate for nourishing…
Spinning — the high-intensity standing bike workout offered at gyms across the country — attracts a special kind of person: one who loves copious quantities of sweat, bumping beats, and high-speed pursuits. A fetish for clip-on shoes helps too. If that sounds like you, the World Spinning and Sports Conditioning…
Last night, North Miami Beach council numbers officially put their paws down against selling pets in stores. Officials approved an ordinance to ban the sale of commercially bred animals in the city, which means no offering up breeding mill-born dogs, cats, ferrets, gerbils, hamsters or rabbits. The ban follows similar…
America’s food system sucks and people are totally over it. In fact, they’re Fed Up, an attitude epitomized by the new documentary of the same name. The heralded documentary premieres at O Cinema Miami Shores this Friday, presented by Seed Food & Wine Festival, and will feature a post-flick Skype…
North Florida is pretty awesome. People who dismiss anywhere above Boca as a no-man’s-land are missing out on some of the Sunshine State’s best assets, from gorgeous green forests to super-friendly folks, to totally unique eateries. Our state’s capital, for example, has lots of amazing vegan options — probably thanks…
If you spent a month’s worth of disposable income on gamer swag at Video Games Live this weekend (all in a fruitless attempt to attract a cosplay hottie), we feel your pain. But don’t worry, you don’t have to forego all offline social interaction ’til your next payday. There are…
