I was just in Miami Beach for a short trip and I noticed it has all these little hotels on the street parallel to Ocean Blvd...Collins Dr I think. What's up with those? They all seemed to have little bars...are any of them good places for women?
I think I know what you are talking about.
Can you remember the names of any?
If they are what I am thinking about, they are really hit or miss.
They are completely dependent on tourists, so they are obviously a mixed bag. Could be Red State dorks, German dorks, or Estonian Model girls etc.
Too "crap shooty" for my liking.
I have to do high percentage plays these days.
Unless one of them is super good that I don't know about.
Miami experts chime in?
I'm pretty sure Menace is referring to the restaurant/bars located on Ocean Drive which are attached to hotels. They start around 6th Street and Ocean Drive and continue as you head north. Some of these places are a Fish Called Avalon, Sea Cafe, and Kitchen. I cannot really say that one is better than another. I used to avoid these places. What I now do is start out at the TGI Fridays which is located at 5th and Ocean Drive and take a tour by walking north on Ocean Drive. If girls are sitting on the tables on the sidewalk, they are easy to approach. The last time I was in Miami, I met a reality "star" by doing that. I think she was interested in me, but I didn't get the notch, because people kept bothering her by walking up and taking pictures and asking for autographs. I don't have a lot of patience with that stuff. If a place has no talent, I just keep walking. If a place were completely filled with talent, which I have never experienced in those places, I would sit down and order food or drinks. I never blindly go to those places and sit down because I may be wasting a great amount of time and money and there is no guarantee that any decent girls will walk into the place. Those places are pretty expensive.
Yeah, I think he means Collins, but it's really neither here nor there.
The same strategy applies. And yours is a good one.
Like you said, I would never make one of those a destination. Those places are more for the "first time in South Beach" person.
(Menace, you want to offer up some clarity?)

I would call them more "overpriced". The food sucks on Ocean. I avoid it like Tuberculosis.
