When it comes to the LGBT scene, it’s worth making a trip to Wilton Manors, one of the most gay-friendly neighborhoods in the country. In summer hurricane season is best to avoid.

Chicken and Brie Wrap

$16.00
Grilled chicken breast, imported Brie cheese, chopped lettuce, honey mustard and sun-dried tomatoes. Then you are near Lincoln Road Mall, the shopping street / outdoor mall.

The gay clubs are nearby, the gay beach is at 12th Street.
