We’re crazy about A la Folie Cafe!
There's a place on beautiful Española Way called A La Folie Cafe, where we love to go for delicious and authentic French cuisine.

A Hidden Paradise
One of the many things we love about Miami is the ability to go from busy/party town to nice and quiet, and Fairchild Tropical Botanic Garden is the perfect place to get that peacefulness. 83 acres of pure nature and beauty can make anyone forget about anything. It can take about two hours to walk around the entire garden, so not only is it a [...]
Bliss Spa gets Minxed
Who doesn't like having a great manicure and pedicure? We all do, but who likes waiting for the nail polish to dry? No one does!

A fiesta in your mouth!
Salsa Fiesta is what could be called a modern Mexican fast food restaurant with an original and delicious menu, that gives the name "fast food" justice because when they say they're fast, they mean it. The prices are very affordable but the taste is great because everything is fresh and made to order, so you don't have to worry about soggy [...]
