Things to do for July 28, 2011

The Weekender

Fried Chicken, Peru and Theophilus London

The weekend is a lover <em>and</em> a fighter.

Thursday
Partying Like a Peruvian Patriot
KEY LIMA

Partying Like a Peruvian Patriot

Today: Peruvian Independence Day. Which means it’s your diplomatic duty to drink pisco sours, eat ceviche and dance to Afro-Peruvian music. Good thing you’ll find all of the above at Cevichery’s opening party tonight. Bonus points for wearing red and white.

A Free Concert at the W
LONDON CALLING

A Free Concert at the W

After you’ve had your fill of Peruvian goods, head over to the W South Beach, where they’ll be celebrating their second anniversary. Their gift to you: an outdoor performance by Theophilus London, a rapper/singer and DJ. You prefer your entertainers be multitaskers.

Your Miami Spice Game Plan

Come Monday, Miami Spice returns. You know the drill: three-course lunches and dinner specials. We’ll save you the time of wading through the menus and share our picks: Bourbon Steak (Wagyu NY Strip), Red (petite filet) and Scarpetta, for the life-changing spaghetti. Which is only a mild exaggeration.

Aug 1-Sep 30, Miami Spice, various locations throughout the city
