A Zeppole-Funnel Cake Stand: What’s a beach without a stand serving up sweet, greasy fried foods aimed to please no matter the time of day? Zeppoles – fried balls of dough topped in powdered sugar – and funnel cake – batter poured through a funnel, deep-fried in a circular pattern, and dusted in powdered sugar – are staples of Northeast culture that would flourish along the coast of South Florida.
A Tiki Bar: In a tropical setting such as South Beach, one might assume there would be more of a Caribbean influence. Although typically tropical in theme only and about as Caribbean as a Bob Marley bumper sticker, an ocean side tiki bar complete with wood plank floors, tiki torches, and frozen drinks should thrive in this tourist locale.
In-N-Out Burger: Who doesn’t appreciate healthy competition? How about a little Shack Shake shake up by dropping an In-N-Out Burger somewhere in the vicinity of Lincoln Road for a battle of East Coast vs. West Coast burger behemoths?
