  • Longtime Peruvian Restaurant Francesco Has Reopened in the Heart of Coral Gables

    Francesco , the destination for Peruvian cuisine in Coral Gables, has reopened its doors with a new location on Miracle Mile. The multi-awarded restaurant, which closed in 2018 after 18  years in business, was known for its culinary excellence, elegant and welcoming ambiance, and strong regular customer base, which included celebrities such as Glorian Stefan, Pitbull, and Juan Luis Guerra. It is now operated by one of the original owners, Franco Danovaro, in partnership with Fusion Agency and V&V Grupo Inmobiliario ( Vertical Developments ).  “Reopening Francesco allows us to reconnect with the community while introducing its unique flavors to a new generation of diners,” says Danovaro, who also operates Francesco’s original location in Lima, Peru. “We decided to reopen because many clients reached out and made us feel that we had a real opportunity to revive a legacy of exceptional dining while incorporating fresh ideas to keep the experience relevant.” Renowned as one of Lima’s top seafood spots, Francesco’s  fine-dining approach and Italian influences distinguish it from other Peruvian eateries. In Miami, the restaurant was recognized “Best Latin American Restaurant“ by Miami New Times in 2004. The restaurant was also awarded “Best Restaurant in South Florida” award in 2006 and 2007 by the Zagat Restaurant Guide.  Executive chef Sergio Riglos now leads Francesco’s local culinary program, along with two other Peruvian chefs, Pedro Monteza and Jorge Quispe, who helmed the kitchen at Francesco’s previous iteration in Miami. Original signature dishes have been kept on the menu,  including Squid Ink Risotto  served with grilled calamari on aji amarillo sauce; Tiradito Francesco  made with fish marinated in lime juice topped with leche de tigre; and the Catch of the Day , a dish of sweet and sour white fish rolls sauteed with onions and mushrooms, flambéed in cognac with potato and Peruvian asparagus.  Francesco’s  list of appetizers also includes Grilled Scallops  served with parsnip purée with crispy pancetta and meunière sauce; Rocoto Relleno de Camarón , a starter of Peruvian red pepper filled with shrimp and finished au gratin; and an array of ceviche options. For main courses, options range from Cannelloni  filled with classic Peruvian chicken creamy stew to Seared Sea Scallops, placed over a creamy walnut sauce spaghetti and Double Cut Pork Chop Carapulcr a, accompanied by a satisfying Southern Peruvian potato stew. Dessert highlights are Suspiro Limeňo , a sweet ending of Peruvian dulce de leche topped with Italian merengue; and   Oreo Freddo Cheesecake, topped with white delight.  “Our offerings have evolved by incorporating new techniques and modern twists on classic Peruvian flavors while staying true to the essence of traditional cuisine,” says Danovaro. “The focus has expanded to include more innovative creations, elevating the seafood-centric offerings with fresh, seasonal ingredients, and a touch of Italian gastronomy. This balance of creativity and respect for Peruvian culinary heritage allows Francesco’s dishes to remain both familiar and exciting, offering something for everyone.” Lunch and dinner are served in a sleek 150-seating indoor dining room that conveys the essence of Francesco’s Peruvian roots. Inspired by the traditional wooden plank construction of seafaring vessels and vibrant colors of fisherman boats in Callo, Peru - the birthplace of the Francesco concept - the restaurant’s design evokes the feeling of being aboard on a ship. Crafted by Peruvian architects Luis Marcial and Alexia Leon of Leon Marcial Architecture Studio, the project's design also draws inspiration from the shape and curve of the next-door Miracle Theatre marquee, and it includes plate glass entrance doors, hallway mirrors, and Peruvian hand-crafted dark natural wood millwork and furniture, with touches of reflective stainless steel and living plants. Guests can also enjoy a circular nautical bar, a private dining room, and an outdoor dining area on Miracle Mile.  Donavaro explains that despite the new location and some changes, the restaurant's spirit has remained intact.  “To us, Francesco represents tradition, legacy, family,” says Danovaro. “Our comeback is a celebration of tradition, innovation, and the warm embrace of this beloved community. Miami has grown, evolved, and become an even more vibrant city, and we’re proud to be part of that growth. It’s about honoring what made Francesco special in the past, while embracing the future. This is not just about serving great food, it’s about being a place where memories are made, where every guest feels like part of the family, and where our legacy continues to grow, with the community right by our side.” Francesco  hosts a “ Happy Bites ” happy hour from Tuesday through Friday from 4:30  to 6:30 p.m. Lunch specials are offered on weekdays from noon to 3 p.m. On Wednesdays, the restaurant features live music sets starting at 7 p.m.  Francesco is located at 278 Miracle Mile, Coral Gables; 305-797-4039; francesco-restaurant.com ; @francescorestaurant . The restaurant is open Tuesdays through Thursdays from noon to 10 p.m.; Fridays from noon to 11 p.m.; Saturdays from 3 to 11 p.m.; and Sundays from 1 p.m. to 10 p.m.  By ML Staff.

  • Inter Miami in the CONCACAF Champions Cup Semifinals

    Image by Pixabay Inter Miami completed a dramatic three-goal comeback on April 7, 2025, to book their place in the semifinals of the CONCACAF Champions Cup. Two goals down to a dogged opponent, the Herons turned the match around in the second half with incessant pressure and ruthless finishing. Lionel Messi ignited the comeback with a vintage free-kick strike, bending the ball into the top corner to change momentum. Two more strikes—one via a clinical counterattack led by Luis Suárez  and another via a set-piece header from Diego Gómez —put the icing on the cake.  An Intense Comeback Victory Hard Rock Stadium erupted when the final whistle blew, the culmination of one of the most memorable evenings in the club's short history. The win maintains Inter Miami's hopes of continental glory, with the semifinals now just days away. The comeback underscored the team's depth that has marked their 2025 campaign. The initial doubt that they couldn't hold a candle to CONCACAF's giants has been erased by this performance, as it indicated that they can indeed keep up with the best. And why wouldn’t they? With talent that’s popular worldwide and among millions across the continent. Considering the increasing interest in soccer also present in Canada, those who love making game predictions will find  sports interaction review  very helpful for finding a sportsbooks that suit their needs, that comes with a bonus code offering an addition to the deposit. The semifinals will be an even bigger test of their mettle, and a probable appointment with a Mexican giant like Club América or Monterrey looms. It's a proud moment for MLS fans—Inter Miami is holding the league standard high deep in the tourney. Image by fotosr52 Messi's Magic We can say that Lionel Messi  has transformed Inter Miami and the MLS since his arrival in July 2023. The 2022 World Cup winner added immediate credibility, selling out stadiums and increasing the league's global and local reputation. On the field, his effect has been nothing less than phenomenal: more than 30 goals and 20 assists in MLS play through April 2025 and a Leagues Cup championship in 2023. His 2024 campaign led Inter Miami to the Supporters' Shield, and in 2025, he's kept the club atop the MLS Power Rankings. Messi's greatness is not all about numbers. He knows how to come through in clutch situations—such as the free-kick in the CONCACAF comeback, and that’s what distinguishes him. At 37, he's transformed his game, saving energy for killer passes and precision finishes instead of all-consuming dribbling.  Off the pitch, his leadership has shaped a young team into contenders, with the likes of Gómez and Benjamin Cremaschi feeding off his example. Naysayers who questioned his MLS move have been quieted—Messi's not cruising; he's reformulating what's possible in the league.  Image by Andres Ida Bianchi The De Bruyne Buzz Rumors of the potential transfer of Kevin De Bruyne  to Inter Miami sparked intrigue throughout the MLS community. As of April 8, 2025, it was revealed that Inter Miami holds De Bruyne's MLS discovery rights, meaning they are first in line if the Manchester City  midfielder decides to make the switch across the pond.  At 33, De Bruyne is still one of the world's elite playmakers, with a vision and range of passing that could elevate any side. His City deal expires in June 2025, and although he's been touted with Saudi clubs, the prospect of him linking up with Messi in Miami appears to be a pipe dream. However, MLS roster rules make it tricky. Inter Miami would have to open up a Designated Player spot, perhaps by agreeing to contract extensions with Suárez  or Jordi Alba . Salary cap implications and discovery list discussions may hold up any transfer. If so, late 2025 or early 2026 appears reasonable, provided that De Bruyne favors MLS over other high-paying opportunities. For now, it's a delicious "what if" that has fans excited at the possibility of a De Bruyne, Messi, and Gómez midfield trio running the league. Inter Miami's semifinal spot is a milestone, but the path to the CONCACAF Champions Cup final will not be straightforward. The depth of the team will be put to the test, particularly with injuries dogging top players such as Federico Redondo . Nevertheless, with Messi conducting the orchestra and an eager supporting cast, they're a serious contender. With or without De Bruyne joining the festivities, this team has what it takes to make history. It is an exciting moment for MLS supporters to see Inter Miami compete for titles at the continental level. By ML Staff. Images courtesy of Adobestock & Pexels

  • Miami Buzzing for Formula E-Prix

    Miami Speedway will host the Formula E-Prix, a one-day electric car racing event, on April 12, 2025. Image by Chris Peeters Formula E brings a new flavor of competitive motorsport with its environment-friendly cars, high-speed action, and sustainability. The day begins with practice sessions, followed by qualifying sessions, and ends with the main race, drawing in spectators looking to bridge the gap until the next F1 race. A Packed Day of Electric Racing The Miami E-Prix squeezes a lot into just one day. Practice gets underway early, giving teams a chance to tune their cars for the 3.55-kilometer track, the longest in Formula E so far.Qualifying then follows, with drivers battling for the fastest lap to decide starting positions. In the afternoon, the race itself gets underway, with electric cars speeding around the Speedway's mix of high-speed straights and tight turns. Smaller events like this are also great for betting, especially daily fantasy. Even though Formula E is still not available for fantasy racing, its older brother F1 is, and with the DraftKings promo code , new users can get bonuses on their first deposits. As opposed to gas-powered races, these cars hum rather than roar, but the competition is just as fierce. Andretti, DS PENSKE, and Kiro Race Co are only a few of the American-based teams that will be seeking a win on American ground. Image by Carlos Santiago Who's on the Grid? The 2024-25 season has a strong lineup of drivers and teams. Standouts include Pascal Wehrlein , 2023-24 champion with TAG Heuer Porsche, known for his smooth energy management.  Jake Dennis , former world champion for Andretti, who brings aggressive overtaking. Nissan's Oliver Rowland  and Porsche's António Félix da Costa  are also worth watching, as both have performed well this season.  Meanwhile, the newcomers like Zane Maloney , racing for Lola Yamaha ABT, bring fresh talent. Teams like Jaguar TCS Racing, who took home last season's team title, and Nissan, with their plethora of podium finishes, keep the competition strong. All the drivers pilot the Gen3 Evo car, a beast that goes 0-60 mph in just 1.82 seconds, so strategy is as important as speed. The Eco Version of F1 Formula E is unique for its green initiative. In contrast with conventional racing, battery-powered vehicles are used, eliminating the use of fossil fuels. The Miami event is powered by renewable energy, and programs such as the Better Futures Fund  benefit the local community. Programs such as FIA Girls on Track, which teaches young women about STEM, hold social value. This emphasis attracts fans who are concerned about the environment but still want racing excitement. The series also features the FPL Electrathon, in which high school students design and race electric go-karts, inspiring interest in green technology. Image by Amed Ismail In the Shadow of F1? Formula E has found its place within the ranks of traditional Formula racing fans, albeit gradually.  Some initially mocked the quieter vehicles and shorter races, pining for the V8 rumble of traditional Formula 1. However, the close, strategic fights and city-circuit atmosphere have converted numerous people. Drivers such as da Costa  and Jean-Éric Vergne , who've competed in both categories, are the link. Numbers tell us that Formula E's worldwide following increased this season, with viewership on par with smaller markets in Formula 1. Hard-core fans appreciate the wheel-to-wheel racing, even though the noise doesn't shake their bones. Social media chatter on platforms like X attests to crossover appeal, with fans applauding the innovation. Legacy to be Built Formula E's expansion appears promising. Since its launch in 2014, it's grown from a specialist trial to a 16-race championship that stretches to capitals like Tokyo and London. The Gen3 Evo debut this season ramps up the ante with faster cars and better grip. Miami's return after a decade signals United States expansion, and rumors of a 2026 Phoenix event suggest there's more to come and a legacy to be built for new generations of car lovers. Critics cite challenges—complex rules can confuse newcomers, and viewers fell in some markets when broadcasts moved to paywalls. However, the series' green initiative follows global trends, appealing to younger, eco-conscious fans. If Formula E balances technology and competition, it could equal bigger motorsports in a decade. The Miami E-Prix is sure to excite fans, blending green ideals with uncompromising competition. With top drivers, local appeal, and an embryonic fanbase, it's a glimpse into racing's future.

  • Aston Martin Aramco's 2025 Formula One

    Miami Living unveils Aston Martin Aramco's 2025 Formula One™ Car ahead of F1 Miami Grand Prix. In celebration of the upcoming F1 Miami Grand Prix,  Miami Living  presents an exclusive look at the Aston Martin Aramco Formula One™ Team’s 2025 challenger: the AMR25. A product of intensive engineering evolution and aerodynamic refinement, the AMR25 is crafted to deliver enhanced drivability, predictability, and stability—enabling drivers Lance Stroll and Fernando Alonso to extract maximum performance on the circuit. More than 90 percent of the AMR25’s aerodynamic surfaces differ from its predecessor, reflecting a comprehensive redesign aimed at optimizing airflow and improving overall efficiency. Key updates include a reshaped front wing, refined rear wing, reprofiled sidepods, and a redesigned engine cover—all strategically engineered to enhance downforce, balance, and cooling. The  rear wing  plays a pivotal role in aerodynamic performance, designed to provide substantial mechanical grip for superior cornering. While a larger wing increases downforce, it also creates more drag, which the AMR25’s design team has carefully balanced to maintain straight-line speed without compromising stability. On the  bodywork , the most visible transformation is seen in the recontoured sidepods. Deep undercuts and an upper-surface channel help manage airflow, while a reconfigured radiator layout supports efficient thermal regulation of the 1.6-litre V6 turbo-hybrid power unit. A razor-sharp engine cover spine and integrated cooling systems—such as louvres and a rear-facing cooling cannon—further contribute to heat management and aerodynamic effectiveness. Up front, the  AMR25’s front wing  has been significantly evolved from the version introduced late last season. These updates target improved low-speed downforce and enhance the vehicle's balance, particularly during complex cornering maneuvers. The AMR25 reflects Aston Martin Aramco’s relentless pursuit of performance gains through data-driven refinements and track-tested innovation—positioning the team strongly for the 2025 Formula One™ season.
