Food & Drink

As summer Fridays come to an end and many of us are feeling the post-Labor Day blues, the good news is football season is here. The first official NFL games of fall are underway, so dust off that hometown jersey, because these are the best places to watch the games with some great food and drink specials.

This week, BLT Prime’s wine dinner series returns, and Slow Food Miami hosts the first Snail Social of the season. Plus, New Orleans’ Stephen Stryjewski steps into the kitchen at Mignonette for a guest chef dinner, and Jeff McInnis and Janine Booth open Mi’talia Kitchen & Bar in South Miami.

Miami-area restaurants and bars are collecting supplies and hosting fundraisers for people in the Bahamas after Hurricane Dorian.

This weekend, Three in Wynwood will host a chef’s counter dinner with Los Angeles’ Ari Taymor, while Fireman Derek’s launches a pie of the month special. Plus, Phuc Yea and Garcia Nevett celebrate their third and first anniversaries respectively, and Atlantikos hosts a bottomless rosé brunch.

As Hurricane Dorian sets its sights on Florida, now is the time to prepare. However, with the Labor Day weekend still ahead, you might want to get out of the house before the weather becomes too dangerous. Thankfully, many restaurants are still operating regularly this weekend because the storm isn’t projected to arrive until Tuesday morning.

Are you worried you won’t find any hurricane supplies? Fret not. In addition to stores such as Publix, Winn-Dixie, Whole Foods, and Aldi, local breweries and bars are stepping up to help people searching for potable water and ice. Here’s an ever-growing list of places to stop for necessities.

Saturday, August 31, marks National Eat Outside Day, and these five restaurants are great places to soak up the sun, enjoy the breeze, and let lunch slip into happy hour or dinner.

Before Hurricane Dorian strikes, take advantage of this weekend’s Labor Day festivities around town. Plus, Biscayne Bay Brewing’s bottle share returns with tailgate-inspired brews, and Atlantikos at the St. Regis hosts a rosé-fueled Sunday brunch.

As Hurricane Dorian barrels toward Florida, Miami is on high alert. Erring on the side of caution, the area has already began preparing for the worst.

The next time you find yourself on the train, begin with breakfast in Miami, continue with lunch or brunch in Fort Lauderdale, and end with dinner in West Palm Beach for the ultimate Brightline dine-around.
