A friend of mine has opened an eatery in Lost Weekend (218 Española Way) – called The Alibi (305.672.1707) - it has the best Philly Cheese Steaks – “with” or “without” (onions) – Shrimp Po’ Boys and a killer Pulled Pork Sandwich (there’s even a Vegetarian selection on the menu) … and more. They even get the real bread from Philly! I highly recommend it – good stuff from a CIA trained chef! yep. (I prefer the white cheese.) Stop by and ask John how to order a proper “Philly” Cheese Steak! Did I mention the fries? Mmmm ….

.. 5pm-5am

An observant fan (thanx Kim!) sent this in from MIA airport

Britto makes a splash … further proof of the spreading Britto plague.

Overcast, but a quick local trip proved Lincoln Road was packed with various global travelers helping the U.S. market with their “Holiday Sales” figures. Lot’s of shopping bags and hungry consumers.

Everyone’s on the guest list tonight, as I’ll be your doorman at Mac’s Club Deuce – 10pm-5am

Just so you know, I lost my wi-fi at home, so now I only post when I find free wi-fi. 

Lauris came down for a visit (we went across country some 20 years ago) … 

An Ice Cream Truck makes an appearance at Sleepless Nights … 

The Hi-Tides enter the field … 

I missed the Miami Book Fair completely but am looking forward to … Art Basel/Miami!

Here’s a couple of views from the new “mall” on Alton & 5th on Miami Beach …

The last thing the beach needs is another Britto “signage project” just before Art Basel/Miami …  

… How embarrassing that a developer dictates the what people see when they first arrive on South Beach, via MacArthur Causeway. Oi Vey!

The Doorman Who Fell to Earth … 

… some folks dropped by, in the wee hours, wearing spacesuits.
