Miami Springs Golf & Country Club

Former home of the Miami Open, this throwback course once played host to many a golf great. All the biggies made the trek to Doral to take on the greens at the city’s oldest municipal course. These days, regular Joes can play for paltry sums (compared to other courses around town, anyway). Or hit the […]

Miami Velvet

This private swingers’ club is located in a massive compound near the highway in Doral, just up the street from Miami International Airport. Entrance is determined by a membership application process. Inside, you will find a vast array of rooms dedicated to various fetishes. This club is famous around the world as a sex tourism […]

Mondongo’s

Meanwhile, the Doral outpost is known for serving up pan de bono (cheese bread), empanadas, bollos (corn buns) and other Colombian eats for budget-friendly breakfast and lunch. Try their sancocho […]

Old Tom’s Sports Bar

Watch NFL games as you indulge in sports-bar classics like chicken wings. Trivia contests, karaoke, and musical entertainment are on tap at this […]

Pepito’s Plaza

Pepito’s Plaza is a Venezuelan grab-and-go spot inside a Doral Exxon. If you were to pull in to fill up, you might never even know it’s there. A small walkway jutting off the main convenience store opens to a counter space where a screaming-red menu offers burgers, sweet corn cachapas, pepito sandwiches, and mixed grills […]
