ISSUE #012 🌙 SUNDAY MAY 24 - SATURDAY MAY 30, 2026
Happy Sunday, Boca! Memorial Day weekend is officially here - and the 561 delivered. This week we’ve got a kosher steakhouse at Town Center that rivals anything in Aventura, a family-owned pizza joint that’s been making Boca’s most-requested pie since 1985, a new Greek restaurant on Atlantic Ave that feels like Santorini, and your whole Saturday planned from brunch to 1am. Plus: the sold-out Summer of Magic series returns to Mizner Park Saturday night - Yarden Shalev takes the stage at 7pm and a few tickets are still available.

🌴 Florida Find of the Week

FLORIDA FIND

The Beach Wagon That Actually Rolls Over Sand

Memorial Day weekend means Red Reef, Spanish River, and South Beach Park are all open - and packed. If you’re hauling chairs, a cooler, and a bag across the lot, a proper beach wagon with all-terrain wheels makes the difference between a good beach day and an annoying one. The kind that actually rolls instead of getting stuck every ten feet.
