Le Ptit Paris-Coconut Grove

Ptit Stop
Le Ptit Paris Opens in the Grove

When the season kicks in, you'll be the first at the flashy restaurants, designer hotels and sleek clubs. But for now, it's the quiet neighborhood spots you covet.Luckily the owners of Le Bouchon du Grove have opened Le Ptit Paris, your new go-to crepe and wine haunt in Coconut Grove.

This is the place you'll go if you're looking for a laid-back, hippie Grove-meets-Parisian patio cafe with big red awnings and French comfort food. The corner spot across from Green Street Café has an intimate bar where you can run in to grab crunchy croissants and French-roasted espressos.But if you're looking to linger (and we recommend you do), there's enough cushiony outdoor seating (red couches with bistro tables) to serve a variety of social purposes.

Grab a stool by the crepe bar, where a champagne cocktail and plenty of people-watching will put you in the mood for the leisurely meal ahead. Dishes like foie gras with fig marmalade and snails in cognac and garlic should keep you fortified as you make your way through the lengthy list of French wines.Once the sun goes down, the space takes on a loungey, late-night vibe with a raucous Edith Piaf soundtrack and the kitchen churning out tapas past midnight.It's the perfect time to get to know your neighbors.

Le Ptit Paris, now open at 3464 Main Highway (at Commodore Plaza), Coconut Grove, 305-445-7331

Red Light

Red Light

7700 Biscayne Blvd at the Little River, Miami; 305.757.7773

More than most cities, Miami embodies the eternal struggle between man and nature: new condos vs. hurricanes, spandex-clad joggers vs. prehistoric alligators, oppressively man-scaped male models vs...you. Striking a perfect balance, Red Light, now open six days a week.

With Red Light, the former Mark's in the Grove chef literally rousted squatters from a forgotten diner, then cleaned up its Little River-abutting back patio, to create a classily retro cafe that counters tropical palm fronds and passing manatees with Biscayne Blvd's heady MiMo architecture and head-y prostitute holdouts. The eclectic, regional cuisine varies seasonally, and trends towards the likes of coconut key lime fish chowder; hand-rubbed river-smoked ribs; mac & cheese w/fontina, Morbier, and American cheddar; and smoked, tomato-baked triggerfish w/ spicy Trinidad-style corn hash (more seasonally appropriate than Tobagan). For lazy creekside sippin', bevs include sake, Canadian, French, and American whites, a smaller # of reds, plus beer-geek ales like Avery White Rascal from Colorado, Rogue Dead Guy from Oregon, and Dogfish Head IPA from Delaware -- improbably incorporated in not-Delaware.

Red Light also plans to refurbish a basement lounge that hosted live music back in the '50s-'60s, a task that'll no doubt bring in Miami's 3rd inexorable force: flinty-eyed nightlife promoters.

Red Light will do daylight, as they open for lunch Thursday through Sunday starting this week.

Things to do this weekend....9/26-9/28

Yogapalooza
Date/Time:Sat., September 27, 10:00am-12:00pm
Price: Free

The promise of spiritual enlightenment and a more relaxed state of mind wasn’t enough to woo you to a life of toting a foamy yoga mat under your arm three times a week. And when your yogi buddy said you’d have a stronger, leaner, more toned body if you would just commit, you told her that she would have a sweeter, happier friend if she would just shut the hell up. Obviously, the yoga advocates in your life haven’t been speaking your language, but we know exactly how to persuade your ass to get into a pretzel position. Better sex, anyone? The stretching, increased flexibility, and even the discipline required to do yoga will put the ooh in your half-moon pose. Now that you have a newfound interest in your Om, join Crunch’s Yogapalooza for an outdoor class that mixes vinyasa yoga and a live performance from tunesters Ishmael & Co. It’ll be a virtual meat market of flexible folks, so grab yourself a free Smart Water and get your yoga on! The class takes place from 10 a.m. to noon at Flamingo Park.



There's a kinship between Miami and Vegas.
The hot climate, the wanton morals, the occasional Shaq sighting.
And if there's one club that captures the Sin City feel, it's the downtown club Karu&Y, reopening Friday after a short hiatus and some necessary adjustments.
The Chihuly glass chandelier, 3D flat screens and floor-to-ceiling wine corridor are still intact. But there are some new additions to the show: Asian Buddha sculptures, a champagne room and a permanent bar in the space that was Tottem Gardens. (The restaurant is set to open in November, so for now count on dining elsewhere.)
The new owners haven't tweaked the labyrinthine layout. Walk through an entryway of cascading water walls and take your pick of five areas offering a little something for every mood. Turn left for a few hard drinks at Y lounge or right to the new Champagne Lounge. If you feel like some high-roller partying, head to the new Buddha Club and Buddha Gardens, where a commitment of four bottles garners you a personal concierge. Hit the outdoor garden lounge and its cabana beds if you're looking for a "chill" way to experience the club (yes, there is a chill way to experience Karu&Y).

With an opening party hosted by Playboy Playmate Kendra Wilkinson, the scene won't be hurting. As for the future of the new incarnation, they're betting the house on this one.

Karu&Y, 71 NW. 14th St (between N. Miami and NW. 1st), 305-403-7850
Opening party Sept 26, 10pm, complimentary admission 10pm-12am, complimentary cocktails 10-11pm

From Urban Daddy-Miami

Coral Bar Opens at the Tides

There are plenty of drinking spots in the city, from touristy frosty beverage stands to sleek lounges brimming with eye candy. But the subdued, intimate spaces are harder to come by. Places where you can practice the fine art of conversation while sipping something with class.
Introducing Coral Bar at the Tides hotel, an Ocean Drive cocktail den safely removed from the rowdy fray.

Designed by Kelly Wearstler (she's responsible for the sexy Old Hollywood look at LA's Viceroy hotel), the jewel-box-sized space is all rusty reds and tan leather. Gold drum tables and oyster-colored pedestals make fine drink stands, while the Peruvian stone bar is outfitted with only six stools—perfect for getting to know your date over quiet chats.

While the bartenders here can whip up whatever beverage you're fancying, the focus is on rum, steadily becoming this city's quaff of choice. The rum sommelier (yes, they do exist) will guide you through a selection of thirty rums from twelve countries and help you put together a rum flight (Bacardi vs. Matusalem vs. Flor de Caña) while you debate the nuances of the dark, light and aged spirit.

It's a bar worth ending your night in. With, thankfully, no blender in sight.

Bengal Restaurant Opens

Curry Fever
Bengal Restaurant Opens
You gave up on finding good Indian food in this city the day you overheard someone refer to samosas as empanadas. For mainland tandoori fiends, the pickings have been slim.But that's all about to change.Introducing Bengal, a new Indian restaurant open today on Biscayne Boulevard, ready to satisfy your constant curry cravings.The bi-level space is bright and airy and cliché-free. Mint green walls, burgundy banquettes and gilded fabrics lining the staircase give the room an uncluttered, polished feel. At night the lights go dim (and multi-colored) and Bollywood movies loop endlessly on flat-screen TVs, putting you in the mood for the festive feast to come.The Bangladeshi owners know a thing or two about running a kitchen, having worked with chef Michael Schwartz back when he was at Nemo (and in their free time, catering family parties where the beats were booming and the papadoms legendary).Now they've opened a friendly neighborhood spot to enjoy the greatest hits of Indian cuisine. But these aren't spiced-down dishes modified for American palates. Expect fire, and revel in kebobs and sauces that sparkle like a feisty Mumbai starlet. Pair the puffy naan with dishes like Carai Shrimp cooked in creamy tomato sauce and Madraj Spiced Lamb served with fluffy saffron rice.There are also chutneys, daals and samosas aplenty, but the real showstoppers are the tandoori specialties, the appropriate vittles for an exotic night out.Which is one area, of course, where your pickings aren't so slim...
