Celebrating Frankie's Pizza's 70th anniversary

Bird Road or 40th street, or State Road 976, sometimes known as SR976 is the mother road for retro Dade County. Some of South Florida's most beloved institutions are represented including Arbetter's Hot Dogs, one of the first Pollo Tropicals, Bird Bowl, Crest Cleaners, and without a doubt Miami's King of Pizza....Frankie's Pizza which is celebrating its 70th Anniversary.

We will meet at Frankie's Pizza on 91st Avenue and Bird Road (40th street) and proceed to walk to 87th Avenue as we visit, hear about and taste some items from one of the first Pollo Tropical restaurants, then cross the street and visit La Carreta then back over to the north side of Bird Rd. heading west to Arbetter's Hot Dogs then to Bird Bowl, and along the way visit other newer places all the way to SW 97 Ave and the old Burger king there, then we loop back across discussing long lost shops like Jets Florida Outdoors and work our way back to Frankie's stopping at even more iconic places.

Duration: 10am to 2pm
Pricing: $60 per person, includes all restaurant tastings
