The Puppy Brunch in Downtown Doral
Puppies and brunch: a winning combination. This Sunday, Downtown Doral welcomes dogs and their owners for a day of eating, drinking and pet-friendly fun—like a doggy photo booth and a puppy lounge for tired pooches. The Salty Donut, Threefold Cafe and Pinch Kitchen, among others, will be on hand selling egg-y things and lunch fare while Mac’s Mac’s Pubs provides the cocktails and mimosas. Latin funk band Xperimento performs. (Downtown Doral, at 87th Ave and 53rd St)
Eight stages with a variety of live performances, drunken revelers in wild getups and all the croquetas and arepas you can stuff into your face… You know what time it is. Jump in the line at the city’s massive street fair, where throngs of people gather every year to celebrate Latin pride. Here’s hoping Pitbull makes an appearance. (SW 8th St between SW 12th and 27th)
