Miami’s favorite spot for meatless eats, Choices Vegan Cafe, has given birth a new vegan eatery: Choices Kitchen, a spacious spot on NW 27th Ave. The new arrival is a twist on the company’s other two locales. Instead of a written menu, they’ll be offering up a daily plate of…
In the grand tradition of vending machines, most pay-by-coin food dispensers are chock full of Oreos, whoopie pies, Cheetos, and Coke. Heart disease waiting to happen. But as it turns out, there’s another option for automated convenience foods. It’s called H.U.M.A.N. (Helping Unite Mankind and Nutrition). And H.U.M.A.N.’s machines are…
If there’s one thing Miami needs more of (besides coffee shops and parking spots), it’s do-goodery. There are lots of organizations working to make things better in the Magic City, but most are short on resources, time and the most important factor of all — human capital. Enter Philanthrofest, the…
It’s spring, and the thing we most like to bring out this time of year is our balls. Balls for every taste. Beautiful balls. Misshapen balls. Aromatic balls. Meatless balls. Hearing our fondness for all things ball-shaped (and vegan), the folks at Nate’s Meatless Meatballs sent us some samples to…
Summer is here, and it really does feel like it. After a weekend of sweating it out, you’re probably ready for five days of air-conditioned, cubical comfort. But all work and no play makes you a dull citizen of the 305. Get yourself out and about this week without spending…
We’ve said it before, and we’ll say it again: Healthful food doesn’t have to be boring, tasteless, or raw. A good chef can make anything delicious — including baked goods made with prune juice, brown rice flour, and coconut palm nectar. We promise. Miami-based bakery Peace A’ Cake makes sweet…
Gay pride is a pretty big deal. Think 80,000 rainbow hued-revelers, Miami Beach beefcakes galore, and Gloria Estefan to boot. It’s the party of the year, and only an asshole would miss it. As if it wasn’t fun enough, legendary drag queen, Real Housewives of Miami alum, and Miami Beach…
In the latest news from the adorable animal department, Jungle Island welcomed a bouncing baby baboon last week. Called Makara, the wee one was born to four-year-old Isis. Jungle Island reps say the baby is doing even better than expected. Isis and the three other Hamadryas baboons in residence are…
In a city that’s less than literary, O, Miami, is a beacon of eloquent verse, scriberly (did we just invent a word?) skill and the power of prose. This ode to all things poetic is back for its third incarnation, and like a good canto, it gets more epic with…
It may seem like orchids are everywhere in Miami. The tropical treasures jump out at us from roadside stands; peer down delicately from treetops; add a colorful hue to many a Florida room. But as it turns out, there used to be a whole hell of a lot more orchids…
Orchids seem custom-made for South Florida, what with their tropical flair and colorful resemblance to the female anatomy. But despite common misconception, they’re not “set ’em and forget ’em” flowers. James Deering learned that fact the hard way. When he set up shop in Miami, the socialite/Grovite/superrich dude created a…
This is Miami, and swanky eateries are kind of what we do. If the 305 weren’t rife with $25 cocktails and truffle-infused everything, where would Jay Z, Beyoncé, and Bill Clinton eat on a Saturday night when they’re passing through? The newest addition to the city’s luxe lineup is Touché…
Even if your best attempt at a healthy lifestyle involves a once-a-month visit to Smoothie King, there are plenty of ways to ease into a better-for-you way of life. One such way is Jugofresh. And now, Miami’s juice-masters are bringing you a side of yoga with that goji lemonade. Once…
When it comes to bibliophilia, these aren’t the glory days of Reading Rainbow (we miss you, Levar!). With attention spans shortening, libraries closing, and book publishers going broke, any chance to promote tomes lengthier than 140 characters is a step in the right direction. Enter the Big Read, a National…

There’s no denying that the culinary world is its own wild, woolly trip down the rabbit hole. The kitchens of the world are a far cry from the corporate boardrooms, particularly when it comes to career paths. Ever read Kitchen Confidential? Yeahhhhhhhh, that. So it makes major sense that chefs…

Faux meat is a standard on almost any store shelf — even Publix — but the stuff you’ll find at your average supermarket is limited, to say the least. There isn’t much beyond imitation chicken nuggets and veggie burgers. But at FakeMeats.com, you can find anything your little meatless heart…
