| |  | | | | restaurant of the Week | | Solea | Why? This kind of drinking is considered connoisseurship. As if Chef Marc Vidal's Mediterranean menu wasn’t reason enough to visit Solea at the W South Beach, the restaurant unveiled its first cocktail menu this week. Designed by bartender Tommy Merolla, the drinks ($14) are made with elements from bison-grass-infused vodka to cardamom bitters. And with items such as the Summer Fling (a mix of Resposado tequila, pineapple and lime juices, agave, and cilantro), it's a list after your own heart. | Solea 2201 Collins Ave., Miami Beach PHONE: 305-938-3111 SITE: starwoodhotels.com | | | | | | guy's night out of the Week | | Superhero vs. Supervillain Pub Crawl | Why?

Your offenses will seem trivial in comparison. Some cities are notorious for their red tape, but the source of Miami’s infamy is yellow tape: from Al Capone to Scarface to the Cocaine Cowboys, the city’s history of criminal activity is the stuff of legends. On Sun., August 29th at 2 p.m., local historians will present “Scene of the Crime,” a series of video clips from local and national news outlets chronicling crimes that happened in our own backyard. You’ll never think “Home Sweet Home” again. | HistoryMiami 101 W. Flagler St. PHONE: 305-375-1492 SITE: historymiami.org | | | | |  | | | | restaurant of the week | | Cittadeli Restobar | Why? You’ve got hidden talents. Usually, the only thing your singing voice gets you is complaints from the neighbors. But on Friday during the launch of Cittadeli Restobar’s weekly karaoke night, everyone who belts out their first tune between 8 p.m. and 9 p.m. gets a free drink -- following an hour of two-for-one wine, champagne and beer.
