"The Big Pink is a popular hangout spot in Miami Beach, known especially for its late-night hours and great comfort food. Open Monday through Wednesday from 8am to midnight, Thursday through Saturday from 8am to 5:30am, and on Sundays from 8am to 2am, Big Pink has a fun, retro feel with its shiny red tables, tall, industrial ceilings and fixtures, and delicious, classic foods. Breakfast, which is served anytime during Big Pink’s opening hours, consists of everything from a basic bagel and cream cheese to Pinky’s Hollywood Breakfast, which comes with two poached eggs, polenta fries, applewood smoked bacon, cheese sauce, fresh basil, and sautéed spinach."

"Heath Bar bread pudding and a rotating selection of cakes are what’s curbing sweet tooth craving at MiMo’s Blue Collar. Call ahead to ask what’s available. Rumor has it, the dessert menu is a bit bigger if the order is placed for takeout versus delivery."
