Where to Celebrate Thanksgiving in Miami 2026
There is a particular moment in every Thanksgiving kitchen when the romance of preparing a holiday feast gives way to the reality of cooking one. The turkey needs another hour, the potatoes are cooling, somebody has forgotten the cranberry sauce, and the person responsible for bringing dessert is still somewhere on I-95. Fortunately, South Florida’s restaurant community has been preparing for precisely this situation.

Reasons for stripping Brickell church land from historic protection are ludicrous | Letters
Historic church In the Nov. 7 article, “ Luxury condos get all-clear for historic church site in Brickell. What’s next? ” Miami Herald reporter Isabel Rivera wrote, “At the Nov. 3 hearing, 13th Floor and the church argued that because the school’s annex and parking lot were added after 1950 — dubbed the ‘period of significance’ — it couldn’t share in the sanctuary’s landmark status. The church building was completed in 1949.” The developers’ statement is so ludicrous. It is like saying Antonio Gaudi’s monumental Sagrada Familia in Barcelona does not fit the “period of significance” because it took 100 years to finish Gaudi’s original drawings. Two experts, a highly credentialed local historian and a nationally recognized architect and preservationist, unequivocally showed that the church’s original plans, designed by renowned architect Lester Geisler, included the sanctuary, the school, the Celtic cross perched on its steeple and the land to the water. Yet, the Historic and Environmental Preservation Board decided to ignore the historical facts. The property was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1988 and designated a local landmark in 2003. Notably, under these two distinct designations, the three-acre site is included as a whole (not parceled

This potluck wants to bridge Miami's faith divides over food
In a moment marked by division among many religious groups, an interfaith event is back for its fourth year to offer Miamians an opportunity to come together across faiths, cultures and backgrounds — all over a shared meal. The potluck-style event “Breaking Bread, Breaking Bias,” launched three years ago, just days after October 7, in an effort to counter rising antisemitism and other types of hate. This Sunday, hundreds of Miami residents will gather at Unity on the Bay at Temple Israel to continue that undertaking. There are a few new elements this year — including live music, a partnership with nonprofit Elevate Cities and curated gifts from Books & Books — but the home style potluck remains the same. Organizers say that’s by design. “Food is one of the best ways for people to get to know each other,” said Matt Anderson, Executive Director of Mosaic Miami. “We’ve seen beautiful relationships grow that started over a cup of coffee.” At the event, people are encouraged to bring food they love or food from their culture to encourage ice-breaker conversations. Led by founding partners Mosaic Miami, Temple Beth Am and the Unitarian Universalist Congregation of Miami, the potluck offers a

Miami basketball has one glaring issue through three games
I know we are early in the season, and the Canes currently sit at 2-1 with North Alabama on the horizon tomorrow night. Even though we are only three games in, that is also 10% of the season behind us. With many positives and negatives thus far for the team, one thing that is glaring to me is that the rebounding must improve.
