The List: Made in Miami

Food/Drinks: Moore and Bode Cigars

1336 SW 8 St, 305.649.5308

Short of consorting with gap-toothed, shiftless smugglers, Little Havana's Moore & Bode's your best bet for smoky Cuban-style love. Get yourself a box of light, clean Miamis or torpedo-shaped Brass -- all rolled using a method so closely guarded, M&B sued P. Diddy for filming it, forcing him to once again change his name to avoid liability.

Gear: Base World

939 Lincoln Rd, 305.531.4982

This South Beach lounge/store outfits Miami's hot-or-naughts in casual threads from the likes of Puma, Y3, and Adicolors -- duds and sneakers that're sufficiently fashion-forward to end your loyalty to pastels and swampy, Don Johnson-esque socklessness.

Food: Chef Allen's Mango Ketchup

19088 NE 29 Ave, 305.935.2900

New-Florida cuisine pioneer Allen Susser channels the Carribean/Latin/European deliciousness of his popular restaurant into this tangy, mangoes-for-tomatoes condiment. Though it may lack the complete taste profile of Heinz (sweet, sour, salty, bitter, red), it'll still make delicious even the nastiest omelette -- even if it can't mask that eggshell crunch.

Treat your burger to something special. He deserves it. Check ChefAllens.com

Gear: Yavoy Guayabera Shirt

8870 SW 40 St, 786.208.1663

According to popular lore, these traditional pleated shirts sport four pockets to better hold a kingly payload of guavas. Yavoy's authentic garments are old-school casual -- a retro-ness supported by the 1980s-era website.

Services: Miami Ink Tattoo

1344 Washington Ave, 305.531.4556

If you're desecrating your body with a tattoo, get it done by the best in the biz (sorry, parlor-based heroin addicts/artists/felons). Just fill out the online application with your weirdo tat idea and submit a picture. It's your best chance to appear on reality TV this side of going on Extreme Makeover and waking up with a gorgeous rack.
