The Week, CuratedNovember 9–15, 2026
A little taste. A little style. A lot of Miami.
Some weeks are best for dinner reservations. Others are for browsing vintage jewelry or watching a polo match by the ocean. This week offers a mix of everything, so consider keeping Sunday open as well.
From November 9 to 15, Miami Shoot Magazine features special dining, unique shopping, and fun outings across Miami-Dade. Start your week with lunch in Brickell, stay open to new experiences, and see what happens.
