"The whimsical ice cream shop by longtime Robuchon protégé, Salvatore Martone, will be offering Valentine’s Day ice cream desserts that embrace the spirit of love. Almost too beautiful to eat, Martone has created heart-shaped “cakesicles” (cake ice cream popsicles), which will be available in red velvet cake, chocolate and mango passion flavors. In addition to the specialty treats, Frohzen also offers its popular red velvet cake ice cream in full ice cream cakes as well as ice cream cupcakes topped with cream cheese soft serve frosting."

"If you’re wondering how Frohzen got to serving such photogenic ice cream, look no further than Salvatore Martone, Le Jardinier’s executive pastry chef and a longtime protégé of the late Joël Robuchon. With a pedigree like his, whimsy and creativity are to be expected. Frohzen’s house-made ice cream is presented as sundaes with a flurry of toppings, frozen cupcakes with swirls of frosting and even macaron ice cream sandwiches—a very fancy option that we’re very much into."

"The building opened in 1925 and became a US National Historic Landmark in 2008.* It’s an impressive landmark. It first started as headquarters for the newspaper Miami News. It now is a contemporary art museum."

"More of a cultural center than a museum, the space is both a comforting reminder for Haitian expats of their country’s art, history, music, movies, and literature and a fascinating look into a Caribbean nation that too few have been able to visit. Opened in 2004 to commemorate Haiti’s Bicentennial, the 60,000-square-foot museum is a one-of-a-kind experience just steps from Miami’s Little Haiti neighborhood, a location that makes it even more immersive ($10/adult).

"South Florida – a land of escaped slaves, guerrilla Native Americans, gangsters, land grabbers, pirates, tourists, drug dealers and alligators – has a special history, and it takes a special kind of museum to capture that narrative. This highly recommended place, located in the Miami-Dade Cultural Center, does just that, weaving together the stories of the region’s successive waves of population, from Native Americans to Nicaraguans."

"Narrow in on the history of Miami itself with this cool museum. For extra fun, head out on the second Saturday of the month for crafts, music, and more as part of Family Fun Days."
