The Playbook

Eat: Area 31's New Menu
16th floor at EPIC Hotel: 270 Biscayne Blvd Way; Downtown; 305.424.5234

Exec Chef E. Michael Reidt just overhauled Area's menu to fill you with apps like confit pork belly w/ banana-lentil salad, cracklin, and chili caramel, plus big guys including duck breast w/ pickled shishito, cider glaze, and foie gras forbidden rice; "A to the 3 to the 1" w/ white water clams, local fish, tiger shrimp, and moqueca-inspired broth; and ham-wrapped mahi with split pea cassoulet, chorizo, pomegranate, and blood orange, also a film in which Djimon Hounsou buries a huuuuge orange in South Africa, and nobody cares.
Check out the whole damn menu at area31restaurant.com

Drink!: New Cocktails At The Living Room
W South Beach: 2201 Collins Ave; South Beach; 305.938.3000
The W's marble-walled lounge just unveiled a new roster of cocktails from its diversely skilled team of mixologists, including the Dram Sour (rye w/ sweet vermouth, allspice dram, fresh lemon, egg white), the Smokey Artichoke (mezcal w/ sweet vermouth, Cynar amaro, and tobacco bitters), and the fresh avocado/ reposado tequila/ caramelized pineapple/ fresh lime juice/ cilantro/ jalapeño Smoking Mirror, making it one of the rare mirrors that's stepped back from the harder stuff.
They've also got a sweet "Bartender's Choice" program; get a look at all the sweet new libations through here

Two-Wheelin': Bicycle Film Festival
In addition to fixie races on Thursday night through the darkened streets of the Wynwood Arts District (complete with cash prize!), BFF's rolling into town to display Friday night films like Empire (with dudes doing legitimately insane things on fixies in New York), plus Mat Hoffman brutalizing his body and going higher on a BMX bike than can possibly be safe in The Birth of Big Air, coincidentally also the name of a book chronicling how Michael Jordan got to be so fat these days.
Sign up for the race and see the schedule complete with other smaller films at bicyclefilmfestival.com

Listen Up: Parrot by Starck
ATRIUM: 1931 Collins Ave; South Beach; 305.695.0757
Superdesigner Philippe Starck teamed up with sonic-mavens Parrot to create these super-sleek tower loudspeakers, which let you use WiFi to stream music direct from your computer, or from your cell phone/iPad via Bluetooth, and provide crazy-high-tech 360-degree sound via what they call "vibrating air", or Michael Jordan's nickname these days when Charles Barkley tells a good joke.
Check out a video showcasing the Parrot and its features here

Gadgets: Quirky @ JackThreads
Our Edgar Allan Bros at JT have landed a batch of the crowd-sourced design collective's idiosyncratic wares, including a modular pocket knife you can equip with up to 13 of the included 18 tools, sadly leaving the remaining five to reform Menudo on their own.
There's more than just gear at JackThreads.com
