During SOBEWFF I got the chance to attend my share of events - and I'm always super impressed with…read morethe venues. Of course there's a ton of action right on the beach - which is always cool. There were a couple of hotel events. Then there was Croquetas and Champagne in the Design District - as soon as I saw the name of the event, I hopped on it, not even thinking of where it would be held. Basically this is a high end shopping mall - that converts it's open air courtyard into an event space. This was one of my favorite events from SOBEWFF - maybe because of the 86 croquetas I ate - but also because it was such a cool venue to host it at. There was a stage set up with some live music. The entire perimeter was lined with vendors, a bar right in the middle when you enter and there was sufficient places to put down your drinks/plates. Trash cans were plentiful. The bathrooms were located on the second floor - and were spotless the entire time. That whole second floor area could of easily fit an additional 200 people I felt. It never felt crowded, downstairs - and there was a good amount of folks. It was pretty cool that one of the jewelry stores was actually open during the event, and allowing folks in for a sip/to look around. As someone that throws these kinds of events for a living, I really was impressed with Palm Court as a venue. Now to convince my counterpart in Miami to throw a party here ;D

This is a weird one to review... simply because after visiting this store, I still don't have an…read moreidea of why it exists since it seems more of a communal place with some trinkets to sell.... But let me tell you something. It's interesting. It's weird. And it's still an "average" store - not so out of the world, but still is somewhat out of the world.... How? Well, like I said - it's an unassuming store, inside and out. But what it stocks makes it much more interesting in one way or more plain in another... it all depends on what items you're looking at. There are small statues (fairies, roman/greek, etc), jewelry, interesting lamps, swords and axes on the wall, English armours, Indian chairs, and even mummy caskets! So what are they selling? Basically mystical things - some that appears to be very mystical and some others that just looks a little too ordinary to be mystical. There's tarot service on the spot as well, if you're interested in that. And in the backroom there's an out-of-the-world experience... with two fake pharaohs looking upon you, with "fiery" lamps on the wall. Even the ceiling is painted in such a twisted and interesting way to accentuate the feeling that you're being commanded by the pharaohs. And there's some seating for those who are interested in just getting together and relax. Maybe while one person is getting a tarot reading? I also noticed some books in the store (mainly Spanish books) that spoke of Wiccans, the Apocalyse, and all that sort. If you're interested in venturing out into the "netherworld," this place may have at least a guide to help you out. There's also a smaller store next door (which I didn't go into) that seemed to be mystical as well (but it's a different owner). That store seems to focus more on religious and Native American mysticism. So basically, you can make a small and short field trip to see what's going on in this corner of Miami! And it will probably be a really short field trip since there isn't really that much to see. Nevertheless, I give this place 4 stars for being "different" and for even trying. The staff is friendly, but beware, you may encounter a staff that speaks only in Spanish. However, there should be a bilingual staff on site as well. And if you need to call them, I was given this number, 305-267-4460.

Years ago... I remember year after year rumor(s) of expanding the original Wynwood Walls further to…read morethe west into the vacant property (owned by same parties that own Wynwood Walls)... And then during one of the Art Basel week, they presented us with a "doorway" into the new, expanded area known now as Wynwood Doors The area features a couple of long walls that feature wonderful murals (along the entire length of the walls) and a very large wall that presented an amazing Ron English mural (which highlighted that green, muscle baby). I loved that the mural continued onto the floor towards the viewers giving a three dimensional effect. The other side of the area has a bunch of small garage doors (like the ones to storage units) and each door had a mural or other art installation on it. Wynwood Doors also has a common area with grass (although they don't want you walking on it) and a tree with what appears to be chinese lantern lights and large boulders that people love to take photos on (which is great with the murals as the backdrop). Love what they have done with this space !

Previously a dump, the Wynwood Doors space is one of my favorite in Wynwood. Adjacent to the…read moreWynwood Walls, the same company behind those acquired the lot in 2010 and transformed it into what it is today In comparison to the mighty Walls, the Doors are smaller canvases showcasing fifteen different artists at a time. What's cool is that metal roll-down gates were installed along the walls so they can be pulled up or down to reveal different pieces of art. They've always been down when I visit, but still cool to know. Artists come from all across the world and you can be sure they're some of the best. I really dig a lot of the work. There are some awesome lights hanging off of the tall tree in the middle that I always want to steal, and a cool dragon sculpture to add to the mix. It creates a unique environment, especially for special events! During Art Basel, I've gone to yoga classes inside the Wynwood Doors which is always fun and special. Overall, the Wynwood Doors were a great addition to the Wynwood scene five years ago. I'm sure it'll remain a regular spot in my Wynwood jaunt.

If you stand at the stores entrance and look in you see the whole museum for free, you're welcome! Honestly the art was good but it is ONLY that. I'm guessing they change exhibits, there was nothing about the museum itself or that talked about Art of HipHop in general. Their Graffiti museum was 20 times better.

Most of the limited floor space was dedicated to the artist Cey when I went. I probably wouldn't have even ventured over here but I got offered a discounted ticket as part of a twofer over at the Museum of Graffiti. That place is super cool but is similarly light on floor space. Maybe one day the two can combine and form like Voltron as Method Man said. Maybe add a breakdancing gallery and a bunch of other stuff. This isn't a bad little museum but for the money I can barely even recommend it as part of the combo with the Museum of Graffiti around the corner.

Zach is such a great guy! I came in just to get a regular nicotine vape to check the place out…read moresince I saw it's a hang out spot and not a lot of smoke/vape shops have that vibe where they have a couch and seats or a lounge type atmosphere to chill at. I was getting a few faulty vapes from Fume and he kept trying like 4 times to get me the flavor to see if it worked and told me to keep the last one. I was able to get an HQD since those work fine. I had to write this review because there's not a lot of people out there as friendly and as attentive as Zach himself and being understanding. Definitely give this place a try!!

There is not a lot of options in the Delta terminals in MIA (Terminals H and J) under normal circumstance, but it's worse in the mornings. Thankfully, after walking both terminals, I found Miami News Connection. The place had plenty of snacks. I called my mom and she asked for a soda and some Fig Newtons. The store does have magazines and books, if you need that. Bought my mom her snacks and went on my way.
