It's been more than two years since Taquiza's Steve Santana got his lava rock grinder going, turning corn into the dough called masa at his South Beach taco spot while ushering in a new wave of places dishing out better versions of tortilla-wrapped meat and vegetables than the city has ever seen.
Because good climate-change news is about as common in Florida as a calm and pleasant rush-hour drive on I-95, let's start there first: The vast majority of the Sunshine State now believes global warming is a real phenomenon supported by scientific evidence. That's great! But this is Florida, so you know there's a Lake Okeechobee-size "but" hanging at the end of that first sentence.
David Sinopoli is an exciting character. As musical director of the famed bar Bardot, cofounder of the III Points music fest, and one-third of the triad now trying to right the foundering ship Club Space, he knows a thing or two about Miami music. The shows Sinopoli and crew have assembled for Miami Music Week – both at Bardot and Space – prove as much.
Climate change is already making life more difficult in South Florida, and the signs remain ever more ominous that it will get worse. Just this week, scientists found that the Gulf of Mexico is freakishly hot for the tail end of winter — which could fuel monster hurricanes...
There's no good reason to get into a fight at Miami's annual Calle Ocho Festival. Everyone's happy, the food is delicious, and you could even watch a dude wolf down 158 croquetas at this year's "El Croquetazo" eating contest. So huge congrats to these morons, who took a good thing...

A few weeks before the most surprising election in recent U.S. history, Miami-based artists Rei Ramirez and Ivan Roque came together to create. They worked in the sun, perfecting their masterpiece along Biscayne Boulevard. The result: a grotesque yet beautifully rendered mural of Donald Trump's visage painted on the body...
Cradling a heavy box of Budweiser against his flour-dusted apron, Mario Medina clicks open the door and greets two waitresses behind the counter at La Cascada, a retro Cuban pizza parlor in Northwest Miami-Dade. Besides the voice of a sports commentator on the TV and sporadic blips from arcade games...
Michael DeFilippi peers down a dingy Miami Beach alley a few blocks from Ocean Drive, watching intently as two men in red T-shirts and baseball caps disappear into the early-evening darkness. He's absolutely, positively convinced they're drug dealers — has been since hours earlier that November day, when, he says,...
In sports, as in life, not everyone plays fair. The World OUTGames IV aims to change that. The games' fourth edition launches in Miami May 26 through June 4, bringing 10 days of events featuring LGBTQI athletes, participants, spectators, and thought leaders from around the globe — including countries where homosexuality...
For decades, Kendall has been filled with mostly humble mom-and-pop spots wedged into an ever-expanding sprawl of chain restaurants. Gated communities and strip malls orbit around Dadeland Mall. But relief is here, and it's a porchetta sandwich. The hub is a glossy spear of roast pork belly wrapped around a...
The Hyperloop at first sounds like one of Elon Musk's crackpot ideas. Musk, America's premier huckster polymath, claims his Hyperloop can get travelers the 380 miles from Los Angeles to San Francisco in just 30 minutes by shooting passengers at 780 mph through frictionless pneumatic tubes.

According to virtually every sociologist except Harvard University's George Borjas, the Mariel Boatlift in the 1980s did not hurt the wages of the Miamians who were already living here. In fact, some research shows the huge influx of Cuban migrants raised city wages in the long term.
The 2017 Cannes Film Festival wrapped up last Sunday with a slate of generally predictable (and perfectly worthwhile) awards. And while it may have been a somewhat lackluster year for the festival’s main competition, there were plenty of cinematic treasures to be found on the Croisette – even a couple...
One of Donald Trump's most enduring, unchallenged fictions is the idea that Cuban-American people adore him. He repeats the lie all the time. During the election season, Trump flew into Miami, made a pit stop at Versailles, and earned some cheers after promising Cuban immigrants he would crack down on the Castro regime. Ever since that visit, he has claimed he's beloved in Miami's Cuban community.
The tagline for David Lynch’s Inland Empire (2006), which he has avowed is his final film, is a four-word fragment: “a woman in trouble.” However simple, the phrase hypnotically evokes the sinister, insoluble mysteries that have been at the core of many of his ten features and especially in Twin...

Now that Cuban migration into Miami has slowed, the city's Republican legislators have pretty much decided that they hate refugees. State Rep. Carlos Trujillo in 2016 tried to give Gov. Rick Scott military power to police which refugees enter the country.
Electronic dance music is currently in the midst of a major crisis in Buenos Aires, Argentina. Six drug-related deaths during this year's Time Warp festival resulted in an indefinite city-wide ban of "all commercial activity involving dancing with live and recorded music," effectively bringing the party to a grinding halt...
For 23 years, a science station on Virginia Key tied to the University of Miami's Rosenstiel School of Marine and Atmospheric Science has carefully tracked conditions in Biscayne Bay. Brian McNoldy, a senior research associate at the school, has never seen anything like the data coming in since September.
