have a beer at Blackbird Ordinary before doing as the locals do and having a Colombian
hot dog at La Moon .
The next day, head to Coral Gables, making sure not to miss the Venetian Pool (pos-
sibly the loveliest public pool in the USA), the Biltmore Hotel and a shopping stroll down
Miracle Mile. If that isn't opulent enough, see what happens when Mediterranean revival,
Baroque stylings and money get mashed together at the Vizcaya Museum & Gardens .
Afterward, top off a visit to these elegant manses with dinner at one of the best restaurants
in Miami in - no kidding - a gas station at El Carajo .
On the third day, head to Little Havana and have a stroll down Calle Ocho , making sure
to watch the dominoes at Máximo Gómez Park. Have a Cuban lunch, browse the local ci-
gar shops, then pop over to Coconut Grove, where the hippies of yesterday have been ut-
terly replaced with the yuppies of today. Well, there's still some good karmic vibe under
the banyan trees in the form of stores such as the Metta Boutique . Grab a bite at Green
Street Cafe .
Spend your last day exploring Key Biscayne, enjoying beaches, sunbathing and bliss in
areas such as Bill Baggs Cape Florida State Park . Before you leave, head to Crandon
Park and stroll along the sand, or do as locals do and take a nap. Is there a quiet, serene
beach in manic Miami? You just found it.
