Miss Yip Chinese Cafe
1661 Meridian Ave
Miami Beach,
FL
33139
Ciara L. writes: I get all the criticisms of Miss Yip. The prices are high, sure. The cocktails are often poorly mixed. The setting is generic, definitely. And the service is decidedly average. So why, then, do I give Miss Yip four stars?
One word: dumplings.
Don't go…

The Hotel Nash

Miami Beach,
FL

Cafe Hong Kong
901 NW 17th St
Miami,
FL
33136
JD N. writes: This is not a great authentic Hong Kong style restaurant.
However, for Americanized Chinese food, this hole-in-a-wall, quick serving, get-your-plate-from-the-c ounter place serves pretty good food in good portions. Please try not to wince once you…
La Epoca Department Stores
200 E Flagler St
Miami,
FL
33131
JD N. writes: This is a really nice small department store. And it is locally owned with historical ties to Cuba. The only negative is that they have department store prices. Thankfully though, it seems like they always have sales and lots of them.
So if you're…

Miami,
FL

Jose Marti Park
351 SW 4th St
Miami,
FL
33231
JD N. writes: This park is a pretty big park, but not so big since you can probably see one end from the other. This is partly because there's not too many trees at this park. It is actually a pretty neglected park, hence a missing star.
But, then why 4 stars? Not…

8000 W. Broward Blvd
Plantation,
FL

Lucky Oriental Mart
8356 SW 40th St
Suite D-I
Miami,
FL
33155
michelle L. writes: Fish sauce, Thai soy sauce, even rice noodles are nowhere to be found in Coral Gables or Coconut Grove, and for a budding Asiaphile (not Asian fetishist, you sicko), that makes those cities deserve the kiss of death.

Base
939 Lincoln Rd
Miami Beach,
FL
33139
Kim D. writes: Okay. The self-indulgent "lifestyle" store is a little much. Coffee table hard cover books that push coolness like a dope dealer. Off-beat t-shirts that cost an atrocious bundle of money coupled with designer shoes that one can't find unless they…

Miami Beach,
FL

Miami,
FL
33156
Deborah N. writes: This store scares, me, yet intrigues me at the same time. It's a big circular pit, filled with a fantastic selection of all sorts of merchandise for the home. Like Target and Best Buy rolled into one. But it's crowded and has it's own way of doing…
