What to do in Florida : itinerary of a 5 days trip in Miami
"You can start your trip in Miami Beach, get up early to see the lifeguard stands before the crowds, explore South Point Park and the Marina, go for a run on the boardwalk, enjoy a nice day with a few cocktails by the beach, go on an art deco hotels hunt, do some people watching on Ocean Drive (be ready for a SHOOOW!) and party all night on Miami beach's famous clubs -or, you know, if like us, you have a baby... escape early from the drunk crowd and try to get some sleep."

"Bayside Marketplace is a great location for the start of your tour. It is an energetic place with loads of shops, restaurants and shops, plus everything is accompanied by live music. Essentially, this is a shopping mall out in the open, so you can do your shopping or simply sit down for a drink right next to the bay, but in any case, you will be able to get a sense of what Miami is all about very quickly. The place is buzzing with people from all over the world, be they tourists or locals, and visiting it is a great way to energize yourself for the day ahead."

One day in Everglades National Park Florida
"Located 4 miles from the park entrance, Anhinga Trail is an easy 0.8-mile trail. The path is a boardwalk that traverses through a freshwater marsh where you can spot alligators and anhinga (a bird on which the trail is named). The black alligators are lying still on the rocks seeming unreal and sometimes difficult to spot."

"As a restaurant alone, R House is unique in that it is also an art gallery featuring local artists – we wouldn’t expect anything less for a restaurant in the Wynwood art district, of course. But what truly makes this a popular brunch in Miami is the Drag Brunch hosted on Saturdays and Sundays!. R House offers four different packages for brunch that include a main dish and a choice of either unlimited side dishes, bottomless brunch drinks – mimosas, white wine sangria, mojitos – a combination of both, or two sides and the bottomless drinks."

Valentine’s Day 2021: Where to Dine-in and Takeout in Miami
"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."

The best ice cream in Miami is the tasty cold fix you’ve been craving
"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."
