Opened this May, the 18,000-square-foot concept was designed by Paris-based creative Vincent Darré and showcases the fresh flavors of southern France and seasonal South Florida ingredients for breakfast, L'Apéro and dinner.

Strawberry Moon has always drawn crowds with its scalloped cabanas, a mint-and-coral palette, the kind of scene that photographs itself. This season, the kitchen is giving guests a reason to pay as much attention to the plate as to the surroundings, with a refreshed menu that runs from late-morning bites through evening cocktails.

This season, the kitchen is giving guests a reason to pay as much attention to the plate as to the surroundings, with a refreshed menu that runs from late-morning bites through evening cocktails. Breakfast leans into the indulgent side, headlined by a Dulce de Leche Waffle piled with banana, Chantilly cream and candied walnuts, alongside an Avocado & Sweet Potato Toast layered with feta, heirloom tomato and everything seasoning. Familiar staples remain, such as a Seaside Benedict topped with bluefin lump crabcake, a South Beach Lox plate with cream cheese, smoked salmon and roasted garlic vinaigrette. Photo Credit: The Goodtime Hotel Weekend brunch, served Saturdays and Sundays from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m., can be paired with $39 bottomless mimosas, rosé or Bloody Marys, adding the perfect touch to complete the mid-morning meal. As the day carries on, the menu shifts toward dishes built for sharing. A Stracciatella Honey Pepperoni Flatbread and a Frita Burger topped with crispy potato sticks and guava ketchup anchor the poolside offerings, while Dirty Nachos and a platter of Crispy Chicken Wings are perfect for passing around between swims. Those looking for lighter fare can turn to a Green Goddess salad or the fruit-and-agave Tropical Sunshine Salad. Photo Credit: The Goodtime Hotel The bar program has expanded in step. A vodka-based Strawberry Moon cocktail, built with strawberry purée and St-Germain, sits alongside the Purple Reign, which pairs reposado tequila with butterfly pea-infused lavender. The Spicy Mango-Rita brings tequila, mezcal and habanero together for something with more edge, and classics like frozen Piña Coladas and Strawberry Margaritas round out the selection. Photo Credit: The Goodtime Hotel Parties of two to 10 can also book the Full Moon Experience on weekends, a $75 per person experience including a brunch entrée, a mimosa or Bloody Mary, and pool access through sundown. Locals can get in on the fun through the end of August, when Florida ID holders get 25% off across the new menu and all Strawberry Moon dining. Together, the changes comprise familiar dishes refined and new items added with intention, still built around the same long, sun-soaked afternoons Strawberry Moon has always been known for.

Miami’s Design District is preparing for a new architectural landmark. MIRAI Design District, a mixed-use project by Japanese architect Kengo Kuma, has officially begun construction along Northeast Second Avenue and is now expected to open in 2028. The development represents the first mixed-use project in the United States by Kengo Kuma and Associates. Its name comes from the Japanese word for “distant future,” reflecting a concept built around forward-looking design without losing sight of nature, craft, and human scale. MIRAI is being developed by Leviathan Development, Lionheart Capital, WellDuo, and The Lane Organization. Construction moved forward in June 2026 after the team secured an $85 million loan from Monroe Capital. The project was originally scheduled to break ground in 2024 and reach completion by the end of 2025, but design revisions, the entitlement process, and tenant negotiations extended the timeline. A New Kind of Design District Destination Planned as a three-story building of approximately 65,000 square feet, MIRAI will combine boutique office environments with ground-floor retail, restaurants, and hospitality concepts. Around 41,000 square feet will be dedicated to Class A office space, while approximately 16,000 square feet will serve public-facing businesses. A separate 2,000-square-foot structure will function as a sculptural focal point within the property. Rather than creating a conventional commercial complex, the developers are positioning MIRAI as a collection of smaller experiences. Flexible spaces will allow retailers and office tenants to shape interiors around their individual identities. The offices are intended for family offices, investment firms, and design-focused companies seeking a more intimate alternative to the larger towers of Brickell or Wynwood. The tenant mix will favor businesses connected to design and hospitality. Leasing is being approached selectively, with the goal of bringing together brands that contribute to the character of the building instead of simply filling available space. Cultural programming and additional hospitality partnerships are expected to be announced as construction progresses. One of the first confirmed tenants is Sant Ambroeus. The Milan-born hospitality brand will occupy approximately 5,000 square feet with a full-service restaurant. Designed by Fabrizio Casiraghi, the location is scheduled to open alongside MIRAI in 2028 and will become Sant Ambroeus’ second planned Miami address. Kengo Kuma’s “Floating Lantern” Kuma’s design gives the development the appearance of a floating lantern. A transparent ground floor opens the building toward the street, while a layered exterior screening system filters light across the upper levels. The effect is intended to make more like a permeable part of the neighborhood. At the center, a landscaped garden will create a quieter passage through the property. Greenery will also extend across the building through planted areas and a living rooftop equipped with solar panels. Operable windows and energy-conscious mechanical systems are planned as part of its environmental strategy. Island Planning Corporation, led by Nathan Browning, is overseeing the landscape architecture. Italian lighting company Viabizzuno is developing a façade lighting program that will allow the building’s appearance to shift after sunset without overpowering the surrounding streetscape. The project’s placement at the northeastern edge of the Design District is also central to its purpose. Located around 4200 NE Second Avenue, MIRAI will sit between established luxury retail streets and nearby residential areas. It is designed to encourage visitors to move through the property. It is being conceived as a place to shop, work, dine, and spend time, with architecture shaping how those activities connect. Kuma’s first American mixed-use project is set to offer a more restrained vision of what Miami’s next chapter can look like. By ML Staff. Photos/MIRAI
