Jaguar Sun: Your New Favorite Bar

There’s a new bar in (Down)town: Jaguar Sun. Located on the ground floor of the X Miami Apartments, this new watering hole — named after a collection of short stories by Italo Calvino — is helping turn the neighborhood around. Those of us who work in the area (::raises hand::) don’t feel the need to rush home at 5 p.m., and residents have less of a reason to head to Brickell for some good times.

We’ve been here probably 20 times already, and each time the place is full of new faces and regulars. No surprise there: Word is getting out that Jaguar Sun is the place to be.

MFP Destinations: 24 Hours in Los Angeles

Los Angeles, we love you and hate you at the same time. You’re an amazing city that reminds us of the best parts of Miami as well as the worst parts. The best: diverse people, beautiful beaches and lots of things to do. The worst: the horrendous, no-good traffic. Somehow, you have us beat in that department.

That West Coast vibe, though — that’s something we’ll never find in South Florida, and it’s something that keeps us going back to L.A. regularly. Our latest trip to the City of Angels was a short one; San Diego stole our hearts this time around. But while we spent just a day in Los Angeles, we still did a lot — and so can you if only have 24 hours.

Here are some of the highlights.

It’s hard not to love Brooklyn. Whenever we visit New York, we make it a point to stay in this borough versus that other one over the bridge. There’s just a certain charm to the place that captivates us, and it was especially evident during our last visit a few months back.

Our recent trip was quick, with really just one full day to enjoy the sights. Despite the time crunch, we managed to make the most of our journey. If you have a day in Brooklyn, these four spots should be on your list.
