What is more Miami than enjoying New Year’s Eve Cuban-style at this bustling hotspot on Calle Ocho? Helmed by local chef Michelle Bernstein and celebrated master cantinero (Cuban mixologist) Julio Cabrera, the night will boast live musicians, a DJ, and a menu that includes favorites like Cuban sandwich empanadas, Jamon serrano croquetas, and Lechon (roast pork)—all of which pair well with an array of cocktails.
