AN INSIDER’S GUIDE TO FLORIDA

FOOD & DRINK

Ahi Sushi Bar

This small (actually tiny) sushi spot in the middle of Little Havana is perfect for those one-on-one dinners, and you’ll be treated to a world-class omakase feast.

Byblos

A beautiful room and an amazing Eastern Mediterranean menu. Each dish is familiar, but it’s the best version that you’ve ever had. Ideal for client dinners of four to six.

Garcia’s Seafood Grille & Fish Market

There’s an actual working fish market on the ground floor, but upstairs is a bar/restaurant that overlooks the river, serving impeccably fresh and tasty fish and seafood dishes.

Hutong

A great spot to host a fun client dinner for larger groups. The Northern Chinese cuisine is outstanding, especially the dim sum. The stunning architecture and an ever-changing light show enhance the experience.

Il Gabbiano

Hands down the best place for a client lunch at Kidscreen Summit. The food, service and setting are simply flawless. I highly recommend the grouper, a local fish known as “poor man’s lobster.”

Entertainment

A Miami Heat game

The NBA team’s home base, the FTX Arena, is just a stone’s throw from the InterContinental, and there’s usually a home game during Kidscreen Summit. It’s a great night out with clients, friends, or both!

SoHo House

This location, right in the middle of South Beach, makes for a fun night of people-watching. If you’re not a member, you can dine at Cecconi’s Italian restaurant on the courtyard level.

Culture

Perez Art Museum Miami (PAMM)

The bayside grounds surrounding the museum are almost as beautiful as the modern and contemporary art contained inside. The Christo Drawings exhibit, on until June, is definitely worth a visit!

Everglades National Park

It’s a UNESCO World Heritage Site and the largest subtropical wilderness in the US. It is so worth the trek, if you have time. The best way to see the Everglades is by airboat. There are crocodiles, panthers, manatees and so much more. You won’t see anything like it anywhere else in the world.
