Miami Spice!  Two months of reduced-price dining at many of Miami’s most interesting restaurants start August 1st.  The fixed-price lunch and dinner menus offer a great opportunity to dine at some of Miami’s finest chef’s proudest locations.

Coconut Grove boasts 16 of these leading spots.  The special menus aren’t available at every meal, so many diners plan ahead so they can visit as many of these gems as possible.

If you’re in the mood to explore and really want to stretch your dollar—and if you’re 65 or over—the Metrorail/Metrobus Golden Passport lets you ride anywhere for free.  Together with Miami’s free trolleys , Coral Gables free trolleys and Miami Beach free trolleys, you could become a well-traveled gourmet without starting the car…or paying for parking. A double bargain!
