What To Expect

Taking the road less traveled to start the tour, we begin at the World Famous House of Mac.

We start the tour at the World Famous House of Mac, where you’ll meet your entertaining and energetic guide who will give you an introduction to Miami’s epic history before indulging in some of the tastiest Mac & Cheese you’ve ever encountered. This restaurant is the brainchild of Chef Teach, the former manager of local, Cuban-American superstar, Pitbull. We’ll learn about Teach’s inspiration to leave the entertainment business to become a culinary superstar.

Hit up one of our our most popular Miami restaurants, La Sandwicherie

We then head down one of Wynwood’s illustrious side streets, checking out the #freelolita mural by street art duo, Clandestinos, before making our way to La Sandwicherie. At this French-inspired sandwich haven, the bread is delivered 4x daily and the sandwiches are made from the freshest, most wholesome and tasty ingredients on a French baguette. You’ll learn the story behind this local favorite and taste why locals flock to La Sanwicherie both day and night.

Stroll up NW 2nd Avenue, Wynwood’s main strip, to Wynwood Marketplace.

Next, we’ll walk up one of the main thoroughfares, NW 2nd Avenue, to Wynwood Marketplace, and stop to check out some more street art, including an Alec Monopoly mural in the heart of Wynwood, plus a large mural by internationally acclaimed street artist, Atomik, across from Wynwood Marketplace. His art features his trademark orange character.

Taco your time.

We’ll move on to one of 3 amazing taco outposts, Coyo Taco, bartaco or The Taco Stand. Each of these has its own interesting story, and you can’t go wrong with the corn tortilla-wrapped goodness at any of these local favorites, all rated highly with diners. Each of these establishments prides itself on their fresh ingredients, and interesting versions of this much-loved Mexican street food. After all, shouldn’t we enjoy some street food with our street art?  For those purchasing the VIP Craft Drink Package, we’ll have our first signature cocktail or beer (depending on the restaurant).

Not your standard pizza joint.

This is a food tour so we are going to continue to sample only the best food along the route. This time we stop at one of the most well known New York style pizza joints in New York City, Joe’s pizza. For decades, this NYC institution has dominated the NYC pizza scene, and have recently expanded their operations south to Miami. New York’s influence on Miami is well known and includes the food scene. Joe’s is arguably New York’s top pizza joint and people from all over the world, including more celebrities then we can count, have flocked to this institution. We will sample their signature, New York style cheese pizza slice which is full of flavor and has a a thin, crisp crust.

Street art meets award-winning chocolate.

From Joe’s Pizza, we walk to Ben B. Cocoa, passing by a colorful mural from the Favela Painting Foundation of Rio de Janeiro, which you can’t miss. Ben B. Cocoa is the brainchild of iconic Miami chocolatier, Benjamin Fogel, who can often be found buzzing around the chocolate shop to ensure his guests are satisfied with his world-renowned treats. Ben has won awards and recognition from several foodie organizations for his signature chocolates. We’ll snack on some of Ben’s world-famous chocolates and hear about Ben’s incredible journey into the mastery of chocolate making.

On to the place that sparked the street art movement in Wynwood.

Our next stop will be art-only, and one of the highlights of the tour. Wynwood Walls is known as the place that ignited the Wynwood street art movement, eventually making Wynwood the most densely graffiti-tagged area in the world. Opened in 2009 by visionary developer Tony Goldman, Wynwood Walls features striking street art from the best, international talents, inspiring street artists to spray the rest of the walls of Wynwood. Your guide will choose some of the most significant pieces at Wynwood Walls, and give you an in-depth look at the artist, the intention, and anything else notable about the work.

Ending the tour on a high note.

Next, we will make a stop at one of two notable Miami breweries, both with Latino and tropical roots. We’ll visit either Veza Sur, the maker of the official beer of the NFL Miami Dolphins, or Cervecería La Tropical, serving a Cuban original beer recipe dating back to 1888. We’ll have our last sample of food, and a refreshing, locally-crafted beer for those on the VIP Craft Drink Package. Both establishments offer outdoor seating to take advantage of our usually great Miami weather.

The walking food tour will conclude with some suggestions for the rest of your visit and other great places to eat in the Miami area.
