Welcome to Meatless Miami

Meatless Miami is all about spreading the gospel about how easy it is to find delicious, gourmet vegan and vegetarian cuisine in South Florida. There are loads of exceptional, progressive restaurants that cater to veg-centric palates, and MM intends to list as many of them as possible. (We also love guest reviewers so be in touch if you'd like to make us hip to a new veggie eatery - info in the sidebar).

Notice too that as of this point there are very few "$$$" restaurants listed yet. This is because yet another benefit of eating vegetarian is that the dishes are cheaper than when you order meat so you can eat at nicer restaurants more often!

Okay okay, OBVIOUSLY I'm biased here here but I still gotta spread the word... Sweat Records is my independent music store, opened in March 2005, hit hard and forced to move by Hurricane Wilma, and now quite happily settled into our cute new permanent space next-door to Churchill's. When we reopened here, we added an awesome full-service coffee and tea counter that's completely organic and fair-trade whenever possible. We offer soy milk, cow milk, and rice milk, and for sweeteners we've got raw cane sugar, organic honey, agave nectar for the vegans, and "Organic Zero" which is a non-chemical alternative no-calorie sweetener. Even our cups and napkins are recycled! We carry a full line of herbal and maté teas, AND we offer Numi Organic Flowering Tea Service which is a hand-sewn rosette of tea leaves, served in a clear pot with clear teacups, that blossoms as it seeps. It's a wonderful aesthetic experience and a nice idea for a date! Definitely our specialty and best-seller is our dark, velvety espresso, which is meticulously prepared in true Italian fashion (seriously, we had to take classes on this!). In addition to the beverages, we carry EARTHCAKES Vegan Cupcakes (locally-made and OH SO DELICIOUS), Pro Bar Whole Food Meal Bars, and Primal Strips Vegan Jerky. We're open 12 to 12 every single day and have great music and free wi-fi so stop by and hang out! We've got St*rb*cks beat six different ways.

Wow, I didn't know this about Sweat Records! Honestly, last experience I had there wasn't too positive but I'd like to give it another shot.
Mostly for the goodies.
