Built in 1940, Saint Francis de sales Catholic Church is made with mission chapel and serves the Parish community in the region. Structured beautifully with Parish architecture, the church welcomes every visitor for a spiritual tour."

"Around 50-minutes from Miami, Shark Valley is one of the best places in the Everglades that’s within easy reach of Miami. Once here, you can explore the trails and the iconic Bobcat Boardwalk that’s totally stunning on a gorgeous sunny day. Though, take lots of water and sunblock with you – that humidity and mosquitos can be tough."

"In the Western part of the Everglades National Park, lies the Shark Valley Visitor Center. The area is rich in wildlife – alligators, herons, egrets, Key deer, turtles and snail kites. There are three trails from the Visitor Center."

"At the heart of what many call the “true Everglades” is the gem that is Shark Valley, the center of the Everglades’ freshwater ecosystem and haven of wildlife."

"The gist: A pair of enterprising young entrepreneurs have revamped an old Overtown hotel and transformed it into the Copper Door B&B. Its ground level is home to Rosie’s, where chef-owner Akino West is putting out Miami’s best brunch in the most unexpected of places.The food: If you’re lucky enough to get a seat at Rosie’s, you’re in for a calories-don’t-count treat. The chocolate guava croissant might be the lightest thing on a menu best noted for its crispy hot chicken and biscuits. If you don’t have plans for the afternoon, though, opt for the shrimp and grits with smoked sausage, which can legitimately last three meals.The cost: Dishes $5 - $15How to book: Stop by for first come, first served seating or order take-out online."

"The casino-flophouse that was once the old Demetree Hotel might seem an odd place to open one of the hottest brunch joints in Miami, but that didn’t stop chef Akino West from bringing the talents he honed at Copenhagen’s fabled NOMA to the patio of the Copper Door B&B. Expect the absolute best lemon ricotta pancakes with blueberry syrup you’ll ever have as well as stick-to-your-bones masterpieces like crispy hot chicken with vanilla waffles and Cajun shrimp and grits with smoked sausage.How to order:Order online or head to Overtown and try your luck getting a table."

"It wasn’t that I didn’t expect it to be good, I just didn’t expect it to be this good. I never really expect anything to be this good. Not even Nicole Kidman HBO dramas, and I love Nicole Kidman HBO dramas."

"Aside from the salads, wraps, panini, and pastries that come in vegetarian, vegan gluten-free, and protein-based varieties, one of the many reasons to visit Ainsley and Johnny Tsokos’ vintage mom-and-pop-style charmer is the selection of house-made ice creams. Try a few scoops of pastelito cheesecake, and if you’re calorie intake allows, get them sandwiched between your choice of decadent brownies, cookies, or doughnuts or in an artistically crafted cone."

"Restaurants Ice cream parlors Miami. This homey, female-owned café in Shorecrest serves classic sandwiches and light fare, plus quirky desserts and ice cream with punny names. If you try one thing, make it the unicorn poop."

"Cream Parlor is a homey Miami place for food AND ice cream desserts. It’s got teacups and vinyls on the walls, and a patio in the back to eat a cone outside. They’re known for a flavor creation called “Unicorn Poop.” That says its all."

"Restaurants Ice cream parlors Design District. Pastry chef Soraya Caraccioli-Kilgore’s playful dessert spot sells vibrant unicorn cakes, rich chocolate bark and soft-serve in unexpected flavors. Her ice cream, in varieties such as matcha and berry rhubarb, is already pretty special yet she always finds a way to kick it up a notch with add-ons like edible glitter, gold leaf, gold dust, cotton candy and fancy sprinkles—and we’re all the more grateful for it."

"Soraya Kilgore — best known as the pastry chef at restaurants like Brava and Alter — is the woman behind this palace of sweets in Miami's Design District. MadLab Creamery isn't just about the ice cream, however. This spot also entices young and old to create their own sweet-treat work of art via more than 30 toppings, including edible glitter, tufts of pink cotton candy, golden-sheet sprinkles, even a macaroon or two."
