The month of August did serve us several momentous farewells. The end of summer isn't all new and shiny, however. With Miami Spice and its 350-plus roster going strong through September 30, there's still plenty of time to get out there and enjoy the city's best spots - new and old - before the snowbirds return. That means now is the perfect time to head out and sample all that our August newcomers have to share, from the all-new a la carte menu at the Elcielo at SLS South Beach or slices and subs at Far Out Pizza to the French-kosher fare at Ostrow Brasserie and the Nuevo-Cuban menu at Doce Provisions' newest venture, Social 27. And that means lots more traffic, on the streets, in the stores, and - especially frustrating for locals - at our favorite restaurants. As summer creeps toward fall, South Floridians have one thing on their mind: the return of tourist season.Ī month from now, the tri-county area will be a temporary home and endless summer playground for plenty of tourists, part-time residents, and newcomers.
