Sometimes that's exactly what a dessert needs. The brownie itself was fudgy in the middle, slightly crisp at the edges but still warm enough to soften the ice cream on contact without fully melting it into soup. Service was quick, portion size felt generous for the price, and it's the kind of order that satisfies without putting you in a sugar coma. That said, The Baked Bear's whole concept is built around the custom ice cream sandwich mix-and-match cookies, ice creams, and toppings so going the Bear Bowl route felt like ordering offmenu in spirit. Next visit, I'll build the full sandwich to see what the fuss is about

I can't resist Salt & Straw, and I was excited to find one in Miami near my hotel. Unlike the other…read moreSalt & Straw shops I've visited in other cities, there was no line to order (!). Even better, the timing of my visit lined up with Salt & Straw's cereal flavor series, meaning that they were scooping one of my favorites, Pots of Gold and Rainbows. I also noticed a few flavors that sounded like local specialties, including coffee tres leches and cheese guava. Since the shop was empty, it took several attempts to catch someone's attention when I was ready to order. Once I was being helped, I sampled a couple of flavors and decided that I couldn't go wrong with a scoop of Pots of Gold and Rainbows in a waffle cone. There wasn't any seating indoors or outdoors, but the shop is located along a shopping promenade, so I took my ice cream to go and enjoyed it on my stroll.

Everything inside looked very clean. This is a good place to stop when strolling on Lincoln...give them a try!

Cool, sweet and delicious paletas!…read more As soon as you walk in, you're face to face with the decision pick from a colorful array of dozens of paleta flavors ranging from Dubai chocolate and Nutella-filled banana to Pineapple sorbet and Greek yogurt & berries. As if the paleta choice isn't tough enough, then you can choose toppings like a white or dark chocolate dip, caramel drizzle, graham cracker crumbs, Oreo, waffle pieces, and torched marshmallow. Each paleta is a work of art, and they usually come out looking picture-perfect. The shop is small with limited space for seating, but there are cute decorations for fun photo opps. A couple of outdoor tables, too. Service is speedy, even when lines are long. Prices are high, especially when toppings get involved. Two paletas with two toppings each will run close to $30. This particular Morelias location in Surfside is Kosher, so check hours before you go since they are closed during Shabbat (Friday night & Saturday) and some Jewish holidays.

One of our party got a concrete, I got an Italian ice/custard blender and another got straight Italian ice. All were pretty good although my blender didn't have the topping of strawberries actually blended in, just scooped on top. Maybe that's how they make it but I found it a little odd. Overall the food was great but....service was definitely lacking. When we entered we were the only people there but the employee was on a FaceTime call with 7 or 8 other people. She propped up her phone and they just kept talking in the background. She seemed like she was either having a horrible day or just hated her job. Didn't greet us, couldn't really hear her at all, seemed bothered that we came in at all. She was more interested in getting back to her call than actually helping. Again, treats were great but just given the poor interaction I don't know if I'd come back here.

The prices are hard to beat anywhere in Miami Beach. Burgers run about $10, shakes around $6, draft beers $5, and fries about $4. It does get crowded, particularly on weekends and in the evenings, but the staff keeps the line moving and the food comes out quickly. Seating inside is limited and bar-style only, with most tables outside. Even when the tables fill up, turnover is steady, so you usually don't have to wait long.
