Everglades National Park

The Everglades is the nation’s largest natural subtropical park with endangered and threatened species. With over 1.5 million acres, the park has many adventures to offer. Take a short walk to spot wildlife or climb atop Shark Valley’s observation tower for a bird’s eye view of the glades. Glide over Florida Bay by boat or kayak for a glimpse of crocodiles, manatees or dolphins.

It is one thing to gaze at the ocean—but an entirely different experience to immerse oneself in the underwater world. Miami Seaquarium, one of South Florida’s most popular attractions, is a park with a slew of activities and play areas dedicated for family-friendly fun. Spend the day at the park for a closer look at Miami’s marine life through shows, presentations and exhibits. Visit the stingrays then make a splash at Dolphin Harbor, where guests don wetsuits, do handshakes, rub bellies and take a swim with these magical mammals.

The Kampong

The Kampong, part of The National Tropical Botanic Garden, is without a doubt one of Miami’s best kept secrets.

This Asian waterfront estate of famed horticulturist David Fairchild, located in Coconut Grove along Biscayne Bay, was originally purchased in 1916 by Fairchild and his wife Marian (daughter of Alexander Graham Bell) as their winter home. It’s a six-acre tropical garden filled with plants not found in many other places, exotic trees, wildly colorful flowers and more than 50 varieties of mango. Tours available by appointment.

DIVERSITY OF FLAVORS: MIAMI’S BOLD FOOD SCENE There is never a reason to have a dull meal in South Florida.

BY SKYE SHERMAN

If America is best expressed as The Great Melting Pot, then Miami is a bountiful microcosm, offering an embarrassment of riches. The vibrancy and verve of the Magic City extends to its plates, with a food scene so flavorful that it warrants a visit to this part of the world, based solely on dining merit alone.

The Miami food scene is as diverse and bold as its residents.

And the secret ingredient? The restaurant creators themselves, of course. Highlighting the rich ethnic mix to be found here, the cuisine of South Florida is a varied testament to the beauty of diversity. Here, we share four Miami restaurateurs who represent the stunning panoply of cuisine to be found in our fair city.

A Estados Unidos se le conoce por ser un crisol de culturas, siendo Miami un bondadoso microcosmos que ofrece un sinfín de riquezas. La efervescencia y energía de la llamada ciudad mágica también se refleja en sus platos, los cuales ofrecen una exquisita carta de sabores, convirtiéndola en un destino gourmet que vale la pena visitar.

La escena culinaria de Miami es tan variada y atrevida como sus habitantes, y el ingrediente secreto claramente se encuentra en sus chefs. La cocina del sur de Florida es un homenaje a la belleza de la diversidad, que resalta la riqueza étnica de la zona.

A continuación, te compartiremos cuatro restaurantes que representan la increíble gastronomía de nuestra dinámica ciudad.

LIL GREENHOUSE GRILL IN HISTORIC OVERTOWN

LIL GREENHOUSE GRILL, OVERTOWN Cuando se trata de soul food con historia, no puedes perder la oportunidad de visitar Lil Greenhouse Grill, uno de los lugares más clásicos del distrito histórico de Overtown. Lil Greenhouse Grill comenzó como un carro de comida rápida y se convirtió en un restaurante cuando sus dueños, Nicole Gates y Karim Bryant, vieron que la zona necesitaba una propuesta como la de ellos.

Overtown, uno de los vecindarios más antiguos de Miami, era antiguamente conocido como Colored Town, una zona donde vivían los trabajadores afroamericanos que ayudaron a construir la creciente infraestructura de Miami a principios del siglo XIX. Hoy, mediante platillos caseros como costillas en salsa barbacoa, macarrones con queso al horno y ensalada de vegetales verdes, Gates y Bryant preservan y promocionan las tradiciones de la comunidad negra de Miami. Sus sabores neosoul fomentan el

When it comes to soul food with a story, look no further than Lil Greenhouse Grill, one of the most beloved staples of Miami’s historically Black Overtown district. Lil Greenhouse Grill began as a food truck, but became a brick and mortar restaurant when co-owners Nicole Gates and Karim Bryant noticed a need for such a space, and decided to fill it themselves. One of Miami’s oldest neighborhoods, Overtown was once known as Colored Town, an area that housed the Black workers who built and serviced Miami’s burgeoning infrastructure at the turn of the twentieth century. Today, through down-home dishes like BBQ rib tips, baked mac ‘n’ cheese, and collard greens, Gates and Bryant preserve and promote Miami’s Black traditions through their unique “neo-soul” flavors, fostering a spirit of community for locals, visitors and even celebrities. After all, if Oprah has visited, you know it has to be good.

guaranteed to hear one name time and again: Versailles.

Versailles Restaurant in Little Havana has been around since Cuban-born Felipe Valls, Sr., opened its doors in 1971.

From those early days, it quickly became the unofficial town square of Miami’s sizable Cuban population. Today, Felipe Valls, Jr., runs the family business, which remains a pillar of the local Cuban community, serving all of your traditional Cuban favorites, from café con leche and ropa vieja, to mojo pork and the pressed, tantalizingly melty medianoche.

Craving one last pastelito de guayaba before heading out of town? There’s a quick-stop location at Miami International Airport to satisfy those last-minute desires.

Wander the Miami Design District just north of trendy Wynwood, and if you’re lucky, you’ll stumble upon Itamae, helmed by Peru-born chef Valerie Chang, together with her father and brother. Specializing in Nikkei cuisine, in which Japanese technique and traditional ingredients such as miso, ginger and soy, meet Peruvian ingredients like aji amarillo, lime and corn, Itamae presents flavorful fusion dishes made primarily from local and seasonal ingredients.

One of Miami’s most celebrated young chefs, having earned consecutive James Beard Semifinalist Nominations for Rising Star Chef in 2019 and 2020, Chang is also known for her BSIDE sushi bar. With her restaurants closed during part of the past year, however, Chang took the opportunity to give back to Miami by serving with World Central Kitchen, Chef Jose Andres’ organization dedicated to creating solutions for hunger and poverty at the community level.

Head to Miami’s vibrant Little Haiti neighborhood, and you’ll find that the food at Chef Creole Seasoned Kitchen is as much about the owner as it is about the complex Caribbean flavors he serves. Wilkinson Sejour, better known around town as Chef Creole, puts his heart and soul into every dish, and his passion shines through. The menu is an expression of Sejour’s roots.

Born in the Bahamas to Haitian parents, Sejour’s family relocated to Miami when he was a child. Since opening his first location in 1992 (there are now six), Chef Creole has been Miami’s go-to for Haitian specialties like oxtail, griot, and stewed conch. (If you need a fix at home, Chef Creole sells his signature sauces online as well.) Grab a table now, however, as Little Haiti shows signs of becoming Miami’s Next Big Thing, thanks to the opening of Oolite Arts headquarters there, planned for 2022.

técnica y los ingredientes tradicionales de Japón, como el miso, el jengibre y la soya, se fusionan con los ingredientes de Perú, como el ají amarillo, el limón y el maíz. Itamae tiene una apetitosa carta de comida fusión elaborada principalmente con alimentos locales y de temporada. Chang es una de las chefs jóvenes más reconocidas de Miami y ha ganado nominaciones a los premios James Beard en la categoría de chef estrella en ascenso en 2019 y 2020. Por otra parte, Chang también es famosa por su bar de sushi llamado B-Side.

Debido a que sus restaurantes se mantuvieron cerrados durante parte del año pasado, Chang aprovechó la oportunidad para contribuir a la ciudad trabajando en World Central Kitchen, la organización del chef José Andrés que se dedica a crear soluciones para el hambre y la pobreza a nivel comunitario.

VERSAILLES, PEQUEÑA HABANA Puedes preguntarle a cualquier persona de Miami que te recomiende un lugar típico de comida cubana —uno que sea realmente auténtico e icónico—, y de seguro que te responderán lo mismo una y otra vez: Versailles.

El restaurant Versailles, ubicado en la Pequeña Habana, ha existido desde que el cubano Felipe Valls sénior abrió sus puertas en 1971. Una vez inaugurado, se convirtió rápidamente en el lugar de encuentro preferido de la cuantiosa población cubana. En la actualidad, Felipe Valls júnior está a la cabeza del negocio familiar, que continúa siendo un pilar para la comunidad de Cuba, sirviendo todas las exquisiteces tradicionales del país: desde café con leche y ropa vieja, hasta cerdo con mojo criollo y su tentador sándwich a la plancha Media Noche. ¿Se te antoja un último pastelito de guayaba antes de irte de la ciudad? El restaurante tiene una sucursal en el Aeropuerto Internacional de Miami para satisfacer esos deseos de último minuto.

una expresión de sus raíces.

Sejour es de padres haitianos, nació en Las Bahamas y su familia se mudó a Miami cuando aún era un niño. Desde la apertura de su primer local en 1992 (hoy ya cuenta con seis locales), Chef Creole se transformó en el local por excelencia para degustar las especialidades de Haití, como el rabo de buey, el griot y el lambí guisado.

Si necesitas condimentar tus recetas en casa, te contamos que Chef Creole también vende sus famosas salsas por internet. Aprovecha de reservar una mesa ahora, porque es muy probable que, ahora que el centro de arte Oolite Arts anunció que se mudará a sus calles en el 2022, el barrio de Little Haiti se vuelva el más popular de la ciudad.

National parks may not be the first attractions that come to mind for those planning a visit to Miami, but perhaps they should be: Ours is the only city in the United States with two national parks lining its borders. Taken together, Biscayne National Park and Everglades National Park contain the best of Florida’s untamed wilderness, where hundreds of thousands of acres of wetlands, wildlife—and, in the case of Biscayne National Park, coral reefs—have been set apart for preservation and exploration. Regarding the latter, the national treasure sits between the towering Miami skyline and the laid-back Florida Keys, about an hour’s drive south of downtown Miami, and is free to visit, making it the ideal nearby excursion to plan during a visit to Miami.

With a full 95% of its territory underwater, Biscayne National Park isn’t your typical national park. At 173,000 acres, it’s one of the largest marine parks in the National

Es probable que los parques nacionales no sean la primera opción que se te viene a la mente cuando planeas una visita a Miami, pero quizá deberían serlo.

Miami es la única ciudad de Estados Unidos que tiene dos parques nacionales bordeando sus fronteras. Tanto el Parque Nacional Biscayne como el Parque Nacional de los Everglades cuentan con las mejores áreas de naturaleza indómita del estado de Florida, en las que hay miles de hectáreas de humedales, vida salvaje y, en el caso de Biscayne, arrecifes de coral, para su preservación y exploración. El tesoro nacional de Biscayne se sitúa entre el silueta arquitectónica de Miami y los paradisíacos Cayos de Florida —a una hora de viaje en vehículo hacia el sur del centro de Miami—, lo que lo hace un destino cercano ideal.

Con el 95 % de su territorio bajo el agua, Biscayne no es el típico parque nacional. Con sus más de 70 000 hectáreas, es uno de los parques marinos más grandes dentro del

As you plan, make sure to check for alerts and monitor current conditions at the park to ensure it will be operating as normal for your planned arrival. Because conditions on the water can change quickly, potentially making it unsafe to visit, the park is not always accessible; inclement weather makes Biscayne National Park a no-go.

To ensure your day trip goes off without a hitch, arrive prepared. The closest restaurants to the park are located about seven miles away in Homestead, so pack a picnic

Boca Chita Lighthouse, built in the 1930s by Mark Honeywell, provides stunning views of the surrounding area from its observation deck. Boca Chita Key is the park’s most visited island.

Park System, and most of it is accessible only to boaters, who are drawn by the spectacular reefs, abundant sea life, islands and mangrove forests. The park even boasts its own lighthouse; located on Boca Chita Key, the structure dates back to the 1930s.

According to the National Park Service, 90% of visitors enter the park by boat, but even the boat-less can enjoy the park’s unique landscape. Landlubbers can wander the Dante Fascell Visitor Center, attend ranger programs, walk a short trail along the jetty, or simply picnic on a scenic stretch of shoreline. To get beyond the visitor center requires a boat, however. Fortunately, guided boat tours are available, but are popular activities. Those hoping to join one should make reservations in advance.

On a boat tour provided by the Biscayne National Park Institute, adventure awaits: you can snorkel a shipwreck on the Maritime Heritage Trail, climb a 65-foot lighthouse, visit peaceful Jones Lagoon, and soak up the turquoise beauty of Biscayne Bay. In addition, a few select outside operators are authorized to offer activities in the park.

These include fishing charters, scuba diving, sailing, and narrated sightseeing tours; other recreational opportunities for exploring the marine playground include snorkeling, kayaking, hiking and glass-bottom boat tours.

A few main attractions include Elliott Key, once home to a pioneering settlement of spongers, pineapple farmers and wreck divers. Today, the small island is open for camping, swimming, hiking and wildlife-watching. Nearby, visitors encounter Stiltsville, a cluster of historic houses built on stilts in the mid-twentieth century, viewable by boat.

On neighboring Porgy and Totten Keys, don’t miss the Jones Family Historic District. The two small islands were previously owned by African-American Israel Jones, whose family grew pineapples and key limes in the late 1800s and early 1900s. Israel’s children sold the 277 acres to the National Park Service in 1970, a deal that made the family millionaires. Today, the district is listed on the National

Servicio de Parques Nacionales, y la mayor parte solo es accesible para navegantes, quienes se acercan atraídos por sus espectaculares arrecifes, abundante vida marina, islas y bosques de manglares. El parque, además, tiene su propio faro, ubicado en el Cayo Boca Chita, cuya estructura data de los años 30.

Según el Servicio de Parques Nacionales, el 90 % de los visitantes ingresa al parque en embarcaciones, pero incluso los que no son navegantes, pueden disfrutar de sus paisajes únicos. Las personas que prefieren caminar, pueden dirigirse al Centro de Visitantes Dante Fascell, asistir a programas de guardaparques, caminar por el muelle o simplemente realizar un picnic en algún lugar pintoresco de la costa. Sin embargo, para adentrarse en el parque, es necesario contar con un bote.

Por suerte, se ofrecen tours guiados por el agua, los que, al ser actividades muy populares, deben reservarse con antelación. En los tours que ofrece el Instituto del Parque Nacional de Biscayne, la aventura está garantizada: puedes hacer esnórquel en algún naufragio del Sendero del Patrimonio Marítimo, escalar un faro de 20 metros de altura, visitar la pacífica laguna Jones Lagoon y asombrarte con las turquesas vistas de la Bahía de Biscayne. Por otra parte, existen algunos operadores externos que están autorizados a ofrecer actividades dentro del parque. Estas incluyen excursiones de pesca, buceo, navegación y recorridos turísticos narrados, como también esnórquel, kayak, senderismo y tours en barcos con piso de vidrio.

Entre algunas de las principales atracciones, se encuentra el Cayo Elliott, que alguna vez fue hogar de los primeros productores de esponjas, piñas y buzos de naufragios. Hoy, la pequeña isla está abierta al público para acampar, nadar, hacer senderismo y observar la naturaleza. En sus alrededores, sus visitantes pueden acceder al vecindario acuático de Stiltsville, un grupo de casas históricas construidas sobre pilotes a mediados del siglo XX. Si te encuentras cerca de las islas Porgy y Totten, no pierdas la oportunidad de visitar el distrito histórico de la Familia Jones. Anteriormente, las dos islas pequeñas eran propiedad del afroamericano Israel Jones, cuya familia se

MIAGB_201000_BiscaynePark.indd 19

dedicaba a cultivar piñas y limones verdes de la zona a finales del siglo XIX y principios del siglo XX. En 1970, los hijos de Israel vendieron 112 hectáreas al Servicio de Parques Nacionales, un acuerdo que hizo millonaria a toda la familia. Actualmente, el distrito está en la lista del Registro Nacional de Lugares Históricos.

Mientras armas tu plan, es recomendable que estés pendiente a las alertas y monitorees las condiciones actuales del parque para que te asegures que estará funcionando con normalidad el día que asistas. Debido a que las condiciones acuáticas pueden cambiar rápidamente, pudiendo volverse muy riesgosas, no siempre es posible acceder al parque. Si hay mal tiempo, lo más seguro es que tengas que cambiar de planes.

Si quieres que tu excursión exprés salga perfecta, deberás prepararte. Los restaurantes más cercanos al parque están ubicados a 11 kilómetros de distancia en la localidad de Homestead, así que lo mejor es que lleves un picnic para tu viaje. Aquí tienes un consejo experto: los sándwiches personalizados de Publix, el supermercado local de Florida, siempre

son una excelente opción. Así que anímate a hacer una parada en cualquiera de sus locales de camino al parque. Si prefieres no recorrer la ciudad buscando almuerzo, también es posible comprar sándwiches, snacks y bebestibles en la librería del parque. Por otro lado, mientras vayas viajando a Homestead o de regreso, puedes darte un gusto y probar uno de los exquisitos batidos de fruta fresca de Robert Is Here, una histórica tienda de frutas y el secreto mejor guardado de Florida del Sur. Aparte del almuerzo y los bocadillos, recuerda llevar mucha agua, un sombrero, gafas de sol, binoculares y un bloqueador para el sol que no sea dañino para el arrecife.

Hay mucha exposición al sol durante todo el año, por lo que las gafas y un buen protector solar serán tus mejores aliados.

lunch for your trip. Here’s a local protip: you can’t go wrong with a custom-made PubSub, so stop by the deli of any Publix location, Florida’s homegrown supermarket, on your way. If you’d rather not haul your lunch from town, there are also sandwiches, snacks, and beverages available for purchase in the park bookstore. Also, while driving from or returning to Homestead, do yourself a favor and grab a fresh fruit shake from Robert Is Here, a historic fruit stand and best-kept secret of South Florida.

Besides lunch and snacks, remember to pack plenty of water, a hat, sunglasses, binoculars, and a reef-safe sunscreen to ensure you leave no trace. (Expect quite a bit of sun exposure year-round, making both sunnies and a good sunblock required gear.) Water shoes, a swimsuit and a towel are also musts if you plan to get in the water—a pastime that is practically de rigueur in Biscayne National Park.

Q&A

DONUT DECADENCE: The Salty Shares Its Recipe for Success INTERVIEWED BY BROOKE FEHR

Why donuts?

In a nutshell, we have a passion for food, and we love donuts. We saw how they could be a canvas for so many interesting flavors, and we really felt that no one was hitting all of the points—an elevated coffee program and a chef-forward approach, merged with an incredible vibe and Opposite page: lorem guest doing a ipsum experience—and dolor sit amet lorem ipseum dolor really fantastic job. The Salty is sit notamet yourlorem momipsum and dad’s donut This page: lorem shop, but we saw what the new ipsum dolor sit amet iteration of that lorem ipsum dolorcould be.

What inspired the leap from your vintage camper to a brick and mortar shop?

More than anything, the camper was a means to an end.

We knew we wanted to open a store. We knew we wanted it to be in Wynwood. We had done everything there was to do in terms of planning, but construction was delayed. So we said, we are either going to wait a year, or find another way to do this. In a way, it was a lot less scary to do it out of a camper three days a week, than to fully commit to a store, six days a week.

Tell me about your background.

We’ve always been interested in the culinary arts. As kids, we were both always putting on pretend dinner parties for our parents, and pretending we were at a restaurant at home.

But it wasn’t until The Salty that we realized this was our passion. Our fun thing was to go to a restaurant and critique, and come up with our version of how we would have done the dishes

En 2015, The Salty irrumpió en la escena culinaria de Miami y, desde ahí, nunca más desapareció.

Este local de donas artesanales, creado por Amanda y Andy Rodriguez, empezó a funcionar como concepto pop-up en un antiguo remolque Aljoa, justo al lado del lugar que eventualmente se convertiría en la primera tienda de la pareja en el artístico barrio de Wynwood. El secreto de su éxito se esconde en los detalles, desde su receta de masa brioche fermentada por 24 horas, hasta su exhaustiva búsqueda para encontrar el mejor café.

Hace poco nos juntamos con Andy para averiguar más al respecto. ¿Por qué eligieron las donas?

En pocas palabras, nos apasiona la comida y amamos las donas.

Nos dimos cuenta de que las donas son como un lienzo donde puedes poner muchos sabores interesantes. Además, sentíamos que ningún negocio se estaba preocupando de sobresalir en

todas las áreas: contar con una oferta de café de alto nivel, tener un enfoque culinario gourmet y brindar un servicio y experiencia increíble a los clientes. The Salty no es el local de donas al que tus padres irían, pero encontramos la manera de integrar ese mismo concepto a uno más contemporáneo. ¿Qué los motivó a cambiarse desde un remolque a un local establecido?

Más que nada, nos cambiamos porque en el remolque no íbamos a poder llegar muy lejos. Sabíamos que queríamos abrir un local.

Teníamos claro que queríamos estar en Wynwood. Estaba todo planificado, pero seguíamos aplazando la construcción. Así que teníamos dos opciones: esperar otro año o encontrar alguna manera de llevar a cabo el plan. De cierta manera, el cambio de trabajar tres días a la semana en un remolque a trabajar seis días a la semana a tiempo completo en un local establecido, fue mucho menos terrible de lo

In 2015, The Salty burst onto the Miami food scene—and it’s never looked back. The brainchild of Amanda and Andy Rodriguez, the artisan donut shop began life in a funky vintage Aljoa camper as a pop-up, adjacent to what would eventually become the couple’s first shop in artsy Wynwood. If there is a secret to their success, it’s in the details, from their 24-hour brioche recipe, to sourcing the best coffee they could find. We sat down recently with Andy to learn more.

Q&A dough that tasted like something, so that you didn’t have to put a bunch of stuff on top of it for it to taste delicious.

You have a director of coffee. Is the java just as important as the donuts?

How do you come up with your recipes?

They can stem from anything.

They could be based on holidays—Thanksgiving or Christmas time, or Christmas in July, or back to school. Also, just overall, tasting interesting flavors when we dine out, and seeing what works well together, and saying, “Let’s do a rendition of that.” Inspiration comes from tasting and traveling and eating.

It’s also based upon what produce is in season. We’ll also consider the seasons themselves—super light and fruity for summer, for fall, things that are dark and warm and spiced.

What inspired the choice for brioche in your yeasted donuts?

We built a brioche donut because we wanted that flavor profile. We wanted the density, we wanted the egg and butter to show. I mean, I don’t know about anyone else, but my favorite things in pastry are egg, butter, flour.

That’s what makes everything delicious! We wanted a very rich

Absolutely. Coffee is a monumental piece of our business. Some people may come in once a week for a work donut run and on the weekend with their family, but they’re also coming in three other days a week because our coffee is just so good. When we were selecting a coffee roaster, we looked for the best, and I realized that whenever I visited other places, I always really loved Intelligentsia coffee. So we partnered with them to roast for us. It’s a best kept secret; people who are in the know come to our shop just for the coffee. It’s that good.

que imaginamos.

Cuéntenme un poco sobre su historia.

A los dos siempre nos interesó el arte culinario. Cuando pequeños, constantemente estábamos invitando a nuestros padres a cenas ficticias, donde simulábamos estar en un restaurante. Pero no nos dimos cuenta de que esa era nuestra pasión hasta que abrimos The Salty. Por diversión, nos gustaba ir a restaurantes, evaluarlos y comentar cómo nosotros hubiéramos cocinado esos platos. Esas conversaciones se fueron volviendo cada vez más frecuentes, hasta que un día nos preguntamos: “¿por qué no vivimos de esto?”. Y ese fue el momento en que nuestra pasión se convirtió en un negocio. ¿Cómo se les ocurren sus recetas?

Pueden surgir de cualquier concepto y estar basadas en cualquier temática, como Navidad, Día de Gracias, Navidad en julio o la vuelta a clases. En general, las ideas se nos ocurren cuando salimos a cenar y estamos probando algún sabor interesante o nuevas combinaciones, y nos miramos y decimos: “tratemos de replicar eso”. La inspiración nos llega mientras estamos

degustando cosas nuevas, viajando o comiendo. Por otra parte, nos basamos mucho en los alimentos de temporada.

Tomamos en cuenta todas las estaciones, ofreciendo productos más frutales y de colores vivos en verano, y cosas más tibias, oscuras y con hartas especias en invierno. ¿Por qué optaron por usar masa brioche en sus donas?

Creamos una dona con masa brioche porque teníamos en mente ese tipo de sabor.

Queríamos una dona de buena densidad y con ese predominante sabor a huevo y mantequilla.

No sé qué opinen los demás, pero mis ingredientes favoritos en pastelería son los huevos, la harina y la mantequilla. ¡Son los que hacen que todo sea delicioso!

Queríamos una masa de buen sabor, a la que no tuviéramos que poner muchas cosas para que fuera deliciosa.

En tu equipo tienes a un barista experto. ¿Es el café igual de importante que las donas?

Absolutamente. El café es parte fundamental de nuestro negocio.

Algunas personas vienen una vez a la semana a comprar donas para la oficina o pasar un rato con la familia durante el fin de semana. Pero, también nos visitan otras tres veces en la semana solo

differently. Those conversations started to happen more and more, and we thought, why aren’t we doing this for a living? And that was the moment that we flipped it from a passion project to a business.

porque nuestro café es demasiado rico. Cuando estábamos en busca de una empresa tostadora de café, queríamos encontrar a la mejor, y ahí recordé que siempre que tomaba café en otras partes, el que más me gustaba era el de Intelligentsia. Así que nos asociamos con ellos. Es nuestro secreto mejor guardado, y las personas que saben eso vienen a nuestro local solo por el café. Es así de bueno.

LOOKING BACK, MOVING FORWARD We share this 2017 story as tribute to Miami’s enduring spirit.

BY SUZETTE LABOY

Join the 3:05 pm “cafecito” movement—Miami’s official Cuban coffee break time—with an espresso from a local cafeteria.

PHOTOS BY ISAAC ARJONILLA

During the early 1900s, Miami’s Little Havana community was lined with Mediterranean-style walk-up apartment buildings, wooden bungalows and mom-and-pop storefronts. The buildings made up the fabric of this diverse Latino community.

And much of that fabric hasn’t changed thanks to a loud group of preservationists and community activists.

Little Havana is the city’s melting pot. Developed at the turn of the 19th century, where orange groves and pinewoods once stood, the neighborhood quickly became known as the Ellis Island of Miami.

Over the next few decades, it welcomed immigrants including Bahamians, Jews and Cuban exiles. Looking for an affordable place to live among other Spanish speakers, Latinos from a variety of countries moved to Little Havana en masse.

Because of its close proximity to downtown Miami, the neighborhood faced threats such as inappropriate zoning (think high rises), displacement of residents and development pressures. The neighborhood gained an added level of protection in 2015 when it was listed to the National Trust of Historic Preservation’s 11 Most

Durante la década de 1900, la comunidad de La Pequeña Habana en Miami estaba alineada con edificios residenciales de estilo mediterráneo, bungalós de madera y pequeños comerciantes. Las estructuras formaron el hilo que unía a esta diversa comunidad latina.

Afortunadamente, gran parte de ese tejido no ha cambiado mucho gracias a la persistencia de un grupo de preservacionistas y activistas comunitarios.

Despues de todo, la Pequeña Habana es el crisol de la Ciudad de Miami. Desarrollada a fines del siglo 19, cuando el paisaje contaba con huertas de naranjos y pinares, el barrio rápidamente se destacó como la isla Ellis.

Durante las próximas décadas, el vecindario le dio la bienvenida a inmigrantes, incluyendo a los bahamenses, judíos y exiliados cubanos, en busqueda de sitios más asequible para vivir entre otros hispanohablantes. Por eso, muchos latinos se trasladaron aquí en masa.

El vecindario, dada su proximidad geográfica del downtown Miami, enfrentó amenazas incluyendo zonificación inadecuada (tal como edificios altos), demolición de edificios históricos, desplazamiento de residentes y presiones de desarrollo comercial. Este emblemático vecindario WHERET RAV EL ER ® G UEST B OOK

Endangered Historic Places. And in 2017, the Trust declared Little Havana a national treasure.

“Little Havana is the ‘heart and soul’ of Miami and is considered a national treasure for its Latino culture, layered immigrant heritage, and tree-lined streetscapes,” says Rob Nieweg, senior field director and attorney for the National Trust for Historic Preservation.

This centrally located neighborhood, where all major tourist buses stop, is a short drive from the airport, beaches and Downtown Miami. Its main commercial corridor, Calle Ocho (SW Eighth Street) is a one-way road and a top-ranked travel destination. With demand sky high for its charm and culture—thanks to historic landmarks like the Maximo Gomez Park, an outdoor domino park where Cuban exiles meet to discuss politics and smoke cigars—the neighborhood will soon welcome the Little Havana Museum.

“People have been taking a serious look at Little Havana for years because of this new wave of development that came in after the real estate crash,” explains Christine Rupp, executive director of Dade Heritage Trust.

recibió un nivel superior de protección en 2015 cuando El Fondo para la Preservación Histórica la incluyó en su lista de “Los 11 lugares históricos más amenazados”. Y en 2017, la declaró “tesoro nacional”.

“La Pequeña Habana es el ‘corazón y alma’ de Miami y se considera un tesoro nacional por su cultura latina, su compleja herencia de inmigrantes y calles arboladas”, destacó el director mayor de campo y abogado de la Preservación Histórica Nacional de los Estados Unidos.

Este barrio central, donde tantos grupos turísticos visitan, está a un corte trayecto en coche del aeropuerto, las playas y el centro urbano. El principal corredor comercial, la Calle Ocho, es un gran destino turístico. Por cierto, la alta demanda de su encanto y cultura—gracias a puntos históricos como el Parque Máximo Gómez, un parque de dominó donde exiliados cubanos se reúnen para discutir política y fumar cigarros—pronto dará la bienvenida al un museo.

“Por años la gente han estado estudiando seriamente La Pequeña Habana, debido la nueva ola de desarrollo que surgió después de la Gran Recesión”, explica Christine Rupp, directora del Dade Heritage Trust.

The neighborhood is attracting new businesses from an array of creative and business professionals.

“We wanted to be in an area surrounded by others like us,” says Cici Rodriguez from Union Beer Store, a craft beer store and bar.

Besides the occasional fast food chain, what you won’t find along Calle Ocho are major developments—no Starbucks, no Walmart, no high rises.

“Hopefully we have skirted a lot of the development pressures,” says Melissa Wyllie, executive director of the Florida Trust for Historic Preservation, one of six groups working to protect the area’s history.

This preservationist mindset is what attracted artist Daniel Fila to open a studio in Little Havana. “On every level, people care about the neighborhood and understand the value of keeping it as is,” says Fila, who goes by the name Krave, and moved his studio from Wynwood to Calle Ocho a few years ago. “[The neighborhood] really struck me as a special place,” he adds.

El barrio está atrayendo nuevos negocios de un grupo diverso de propietarios profesionales y creativos.

“Queríamos estar en un área rodeada por otros como nosotros”, dice Cici Rodríguez de Union Beer Store, una tienda de cerveza y bar.

Más allá de cadenas de comida rápida, lo que no encontrarás en la Calle Ocho son grandes desarrollos comerciales—ningun Starbucks, Walmart o rascacielos.

“Esperamos haber superado muchas de las presiones de desarrollo comercial”, manifestó Melissa Wyllie, directora de la Preservación Histórica de la Florida, uno de los seis grupos principales que protege la historia del área.

Esta mentalidad preservacionista es lo que atrajo al artista Daniel Fila, quien trasladó su estudio de Wynwood a Calle Ocho hace unos años. “En todos los niveles, la gente se preocupa por el vecindario y entiende el valor de mantenerlo como está”, dice Fila, cuyo nombre de artista es Krave. “[El barrio] realmente me pareció un lugar especial”.

As the area continues to grow, Little Havana has managed to bring beloved businesses back to life. The renovated bar and music lounge Ball & Chain was an iconic nightclub throughout the 1930-‘50s. First opened in 1947, Velvet Creme Doughnuts made its triumphant return to Calle Ocho over the summer, while an apartment building from the ‘20s which played host to jazz legends Count Basie and Billie Holiday also opened after a complete renovation as Tower Hotel. The name which it shares with the popular art-house cinema managed by Miami Dade College.

Reflecting on the importance of preserving the rich culture of the area, Wyllie adds that Little Havana is part of America’s story, too. “I think it’s important that we have a visual place where we can see our shared history.”

A medida que el área continúa creciendo, La Pequeña Habana ha logrado resucitar negocios queridos. El renovado bar y sala de música Ball & Chain fue una discoteca icónica durante los 1930-50s. Inaugurado en 1947, Velvet Creme Doughnuts hizo su triunfal regresó a la Calle Ocho durante el verano. Mientras tanto, un edificio residencial de los años 20, anfitrión de leyendas del jazz como Count Basie y Billie Holiday, completó su restauración y habrio como Tower Hotel. El hotel comparte su nombre con el histórico cine de arte administrado por el Miami Dade College.

Reflejando sobre el significado de preservar la cultura de la zona, Wyllie añade que La Pequeña Habana es parte de la historia de los Estados Unidos. “Creo que es importante que tengamos un lugar visual para compartirla.”
