Alisa's Painted Bistro

This dual-purpose spot is a bistro and pottery workshop, so artists of all ages can get their paint on while inhaling eye-candy cupcakes and homemade baked goods. In fact, Alisa's Painted Bistro cupcakes were such a hit, they even branched out into a food truck dubbed Alisa's Cupcakery. The Aventura joint also serves up savory foodstuffs like salads and sandwiches including a spinach salad ($8.50), tuna melt paninis ($8.30), cheese pizza slices ($2.95) and basil pesto pasta ($9.00). And if you're looking to pair your pottery painting with some pizza, they offer party packages, too. A place to eat and keep the kids' ADD at bay? Win/win.
