From croquetas and cubanos to arepas and tacos, Miami is well equipped with easy on-the-go food options from Latin American cultures. But there’s no denying the appeal of the Jamaican patty. At Time Out Market, newly opened King Patty’s takes the iconic street food to new heights with a range of fillings. Beyond the signature spicy beef, there’s jerk chicken, curry shrimp, and curry chicken. King Patty’s serves its creations with an optional coco bread side – which doubles as a pillowy bun for a tasty patty sandwich. Open Sunday through Thursday noon to 10 p.m., Friday and Saturday noon to 11 p.m.
