ISSUE #010 🌛 SUNDAY MAY 10 - SATURDAY MAY 16, 2026
Happy Mother's Day, Boca. This Sunday belongs to the moms - then check back in with us, because this week's lineup is genuinely good. A jewelry store on Federal Highway is hosting free shark, eel, and ray feedings every Thursday at 4pm. A TexMex breakfast spot in Delray has 2,000+ Instagram likes and people are eating it in their cars. And Rossano's Pizza Lab is the wood-fired, 72-hour-fermented pizza spot that Delray needed. Lots to eat, lots to do.

🌴 Florida Find of the Week

FLORIDA FIND

Stanley Quencher H2.0 30oz Tumbler

If you're eating in your car at Poblano South or just spending a morning out in South Florida heat, this is the tumbler that keeps your coffee hot through all of it. The 30oz fits in most cup holders, holds ice for hours, and comes in enough colors that you'll spend 10 minutes deciding. The one thing everyone who has it agrees on: it's worth it.
