Miami Visit 

Post#1 » by ryanpuge » Thu Mar 2, 2017 3:36 pm

I will be visiting Miami (first time) in the middle of March.
Any suggestions where can I get Miami Heat memorabilia?
Maybe a good Cuban restaurant too... Thanks in advance...

I think the Heat store at the AAA is open outside of games. Check their website. There is also a Heat store at the Dolphin Mall which is on the other side of Miami.

I'm sure there are sports stores at Bayside which is across the street from the AAA. Very touristy shops area.

Besides the famous Versailles, which is a fine spot to go to. Check out El Palacio de los Jugos, a little bit of everything, it's an open market with great food a juices. And if in doubt, just hop on yelp!

I highly recommend you do the Calle Ocho visit, stop by Versailles for cuban food and then stop by Ball & Chain for some mojitos, live music and the best cultural experience Miami can offer. As for Heat memorabilia, definitely hit the AAA which is in downtown Miami. Lots of things to see and do in that area like Bayside Marketplace plus visit the nearby neighborhoods (Design District, Wynwood, Brickell etc). This is the best time of the year to visit South Florida.
