The List
This NYC party photo blog's recently focused its scarily revealing lens on Miami's clubs, capturing so many "hot messes” (see "Transition Team" and "Transition Team II") that you're guaranteed to eventually say, “I bought that girl 50 drinks and I'm still hoping for midriff".
Check out the dizzy beauty at LastNightsParty.comThursdays, 4pm to 7pm, 4141 NE 2nd Ave, Miami; 305.572.2901
Apertivo, the lordly snack taken down between lunch and dinner, is now semi-free at Fratelli: hard-to-find Italian wines come at a reduced price, and grub (crostini w/ prosciutto & fig, chicken liver bruschetta, mini pizzas,...) is on the house -- a vast improvement over your typical fourth meal, last week's office birthday cake.
For the full menu go to FratelliLyon.comJan 12 to Feb 12, various locations
For the first time ever, Miami Spice is dropping during the new slow season (winter), with participating spots both on-the-beach (China Grill, Tuscan Steak, DeVito, Tantra) and off (Chef Allen's, Andu, Soyka), all offering three-course lunches and dinners for $23 and $36. Miami Spice in January? What's next, a black president?

Besides bottomless Bellinis and bloodys, Scarpetta's Sunday deal also includes a limitless first-course buffet (creamy polenta w/ truffle mushroom fricassee, scrambled eggs w/ pancetta & provolone, etc), plus your choice of table-served second courses: grilled Mediterranean octopus, or beer braised short ribs. You'll also get a dessert of sambuca chocolate mousse, though by this point you too will be a liquor-infused pudding.
