"For over a decade, Morgans has developed a loyal local following driven mostly by word-of-mouth, and it's not hard to see why; it's a spot that offers a staggering assortment of brunch goodies (think everything from Boursin egg sandwiches, to mascarpone-and-raspberry-stuffed French toast) in a seriously cute 1930's house that the owners have outfitted with mod furnishings, and polished concrete floors. Its also got a huge wrap-around porch with extra seating and communal tables that practically begs for a brunch spread. Courtesy Mandarin Oriental, Miami"

"The “modern comfort food” served at Morgan’s is soul food, but made with organic ingredients, making it one of the best breakfast spots in Miami. The menu includes the classic breakfast and brunch fare, like the sticky buns or the eggs benedict with the exceptional hollandaise sauce. Morgan’s also offers a new take on these classics – the Benedict Burger is a great example of that – as well as other intriguing items like the Beet and Goat Cheese Tacos."

"I once waited an hour in line to try Morgan’s weekend brunch and it is one of the best decisions I have ever made. French toast doused in cinnamon butter and maple syrup, waffle and fried chicken sandwiches, and not to mention the melt-in-your mouth cookies will have you begging to come back."

"If people watching is your thing, grab a cup of coffee, a newspaper and an outdoor seat at Miami Beach’s News Café. This SoBe institution is the American Rivera’s most famous coffee shop and, the best part is, this place is open 24/7. Originally opened as a small news stand and bookstore, that also happened to sell coffee, News Café has quickly grown to accommodate an ever-changing group of customers and tourists."

"A legend within the sphere of Miami Beach, the News Cafe is always packed with happy customers. Patrons planning to dine should expect to wait for a table, as this cafe is set on a popular corner near South Beach. Because of its prime location on ocean Drive, News Cafe provides the perfect ambiance for a morning (or afternoon) of people watching."

"A Miami Beach standby, News Cafe offers casual outdoor dining and excellent people-watching. Situated in the Art Deco District, the cafe is located across the street from the beach. The menu is mind-boggling with dishes for every taste: seafood, steak, pasta, panini, pizza, and more."
