Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. In South Florida, it can also be the most interesting. Do a little exploring, and you’ll find several ways to start your day that are a lot more exciting than a bowl of soggy cereal.
Egg & Avocado Sandwich + Marcado at Cafe Curuba
Why We Love It: It’s a simple thing, really: a fluffy bun filled with creamy egg salad brightened with mustard and enriched by slices of fresh avocado. But accompanied by a precisely pulled espresso dotted with...
Morning Bun at True Loaf Bakery
Why We Love It: The smell of butter, yeast and sugar envelopes you upon opening the door. Take that smell with you by getting True Loaf’s morning bun: a huge coiled ribbon of flaky laminated croissant dough,...

Egg, Cheese and Sujuk Bread at Noor Bakery
Why We Love It: This tiny bakery specializes in freshly baked Lebanese flatbreads with about a dozen different variations of toppings. My favorite is the one with fluffy eggs and stretchy white cheese, along with...
Nasi Goreng at Threefold Cafe
Why We Love It: Fried rice for breakfast? In Indonesia, nasi goreng is morning food. It is at Threefold Cafe, too, where you can get it as early as 7:30am. They perch a runny fried egg on top of a pile of stir-fried...
Egg Souffle at Sucre Cafe
Why We Love It: One of my favorite things about breakfast is eggs, and the many things that can be done with them. In Sucre Café’s tiny kitchen, they turn them into a puffy, airy breakfast souffle, studded with...
Oatmeal Emma at Green Gables Cafe
Why We Love It: The “Oatmeal Emma” at Green Gables Café walks a fine line between sweet and savory: nutty almond milk and creamy tahina, balanced by brown sugar and cinnamon. Add some mixed nuts to pull it...
Jalisco Bowl at Dirt
Why We Love It: Fast casual no longer has to mean junk food. At Dirt, you order at the counter, but you get fresh, clean stuff like their Jalisco Bowl: a hearty but health-conscious breakfast of quinoa or farro...
Banh Mi + Milk Tea at 545 Banh Mi Cafe
Why We Love It: A sandwich for breakfast? It’s common in Vietnam, and also at 545 Banh Mi Cafe where they serve several iterations on house-baked baguettes starting at 9am, from the traditional “dac biet” with...
Guava + Cheese Donut at The Salty Donut
Why We Love It: What do you get when you cross several hot food trends – donuts, food trucks and pop-ups – with old Miami Cuban traditions? The guava and cheese donut from the Salty Donut in Wynwood: puffy...
Ackee & Saltfish at Clive’s Cafe
Why We Love It: It may sound odd, but this Jamaican breakfast tradition, which combines silky preserved salt cod and creamy, soft ackee fruit, cooked with onion and tomato and served with dense, starchy dumplings,...
Bagel & Cream Cheese at Toasted Bagelry
Why We Love It: So many bagels these days are a disappointment: cakey, floppy, anemic – a roll with a hole. Not at Toasted Bagelry, despite what some would consider sacrilege in the name itself. These are crusty on...
