Miami Living Magazine has released a new roundup of May highlights, covering major events, new dining options, cultural figures, travel recommendations, and health insights for readers in and around Miami.
Events and Miami Grand Prix Guide
The publication offers an events guide for Miami in May, featuring the Cadillac Championship, the Hyundai Air & Sea Show, and the American Black Film Festival.
It also presents a dedicated Miami Grand Prix Formula 1 guide that outlines the drivers, ticket options, and key race-weekend activities, along with a selection of ultra-luxury experiences for fans seeking premium access.
New Dining Spots and Culinary Experiences
In dining coverage, Miami Living spotlights Leonardo, a new Italian restaurant in Miami that centers its concept on music, art, and design, and notes that The Wagyu Bar has reopened in a larger Coral Gables location on Le Jeune Road, expanding both its space and menu.
The magazine previews a Michelin-starred culinary weekend taking place this July at The Cove Eleuthera in the Bahamas, about an hour from Miami by air, bringing together acclaimed chefs for a multi-day dining program.
The issue also examines the growth of organic food in the United States, explaining how the category moved into the mainstream yet still accounts for a limited share of overall consumption and what changes may be needed to shift buying habits.
Profiles, Arts, and Culture
Among its people features, Miami Living includes an interview with actress Bailey Tippen on her career and her portrayal of Sylvia in Tyler Perry’s series "Beauty in Black," as well as a conversation with Rosalee Mayeux, whose comedy-based healing sessions appear at select Miami venues and blend storytelling with wellness.
The newsletter notes the music community’s remembrance of conductor Michael Tilson Thomas, who died at 81 and is credited with shaping generations of musicians with an influence that extended to Miami and beyond.
In an arts and collecting segment, the magazine highlights ten contemporary artists, including Daniel Arsham, Refik Anadol, Yayoi Kusama, and Jeff Koons, who are presented as longer-term art investment options for Miami residences.
Travel, Health, and Magazine Picks
For travelers heading to New York, Miami Living recommends The Peninsula New York on Fifth Avenue for its central Midtown setting and traditional luxury, and reports that Rosewood Hotels & Resorts has introduced summer offers across its Caribbean and Atlantic properties aimed at warm-weather, experience-focused stays.
Health coverage features commentary from Michael I. Goran, Professor of Pediatrics at the University of Southern California, who clarifies recent dietary guidance and outlines practical steps to support heart health, and from Emma Fenske of Oregon Health & Science University, who discusses addiction recovery with an emphasis on the brain’s role beyond short-term detox.
The newsletter further points readers to the latest print edition, which includes a closer look at Ryan Gosling’s film adaptation of "Project Hail Mary," described as one of the year’s notable box office releases, and a profile of designer Sonya Winner, whose London-based studio is known for vibrant statement rugs that evolved from an early career in graphic design and photography.
