Eat Free: Nite Cap Lounge Sundays
Sundays, 11am to 4pm: 15544 W Dixie Hwy; North Miami Beach; 305.940.6700
Head to Nite Cap 1) any NFL Sunday to devour free hot dogs, kielbasa, and sliders all afternoon, and 2) this coming Labor Day at 2pm, when they're throwing a free BBQ with dogs, burgers, and potato salad aplenty. The interior's fan-tasticly decked with semi-ancient 'Fins memorabilia, including original Csonka and Griese posters, but isn't everything when you're serving that much fatty food?
Wear: Moderna Tigre Tees
From a Tallahassee design freak who won a t-shirt contest on KindredMarket, MT makes things more fun the old fashioned way: by putting tiger heads on them. Tees include "Tigre Papi", which shows The Godfather's Vito Corleone with a big-cat cranium replacing his own, and "Tigre Ficcion", depicting Pulp Fiction's Vincent and post-Ezekiel-passage Jules drawing their guns, only they've got giant tiger heads, meaning later conversations will surely center on Royales with fleas.

Watch: Movie Night at Icon Brickell Spa
Saturdays at 7:30pm: Icon Brickell Spa; 465 Brickell Ave; Brickell, Miami; 305.503.0369
Starting Sat night and running through Fall, the Philippe Stark-designed Icon Brickell Spa opens its doors for flick viewing in their date-ready, living-roomish 30-seat screening area, offering velvet couches, a 9ft hi-def screen w/ surround sound, free popcorn & gourmet cupcakes, and the option of ordering Champagne. September'll show classics like Citizen Kane, Casablanca, and To Kill A Mockingbird, while October shifts to horror flicks -- handy, as people will think your date is screaming at the movie when she totally overreacts to your Yawn Move.

Drink For A Cause: Shuichi Take Summer Soiree
Thurs, 7 to 10pm: Shuichi Take Fitness; 3250 NE 1st Ave, # 504; Midtown, Miami; 305.856.4588
Shuichi Take Fitness is hosting a Make a Wish benefit featuring passed food by celeb chefs Michelle Bernstein and Michael Schwartz, free drinks, including antioxidant-filled Take-tinis with Russian Standard Vodka/sake/pomegranate juice, plus additional booze like Appleton Rum and Corazon margaritas. For your viewing pleasure, there's a poolside fashion show by Rumeur Boutique, with fall stuff like colorized leopard prints, bold necklaces, and boyfriend blazers -- aka, "stop stealing my blazers".

Eat Free Again: Maya Tapas & Grill Tapas Tuesdays
6 to 8pm every Tues: Maya Tapas Grill; 809 Lincoln Rd; South Beach; 305.538.0058
Watch people on Lincoln Road, while devouring free tapas like bruschetta, chorizo & garbanzo beans, Argentine blood sausage with marinated onions, assorted cold cuts (prosciutto, serrano ham, mortadela, Genoa salami), and a cheese platter with smoked Gouda, Manchego, Brie and Roquefort with toast points and grapes. To keep you alcoholically lubricated, there's $4 sangria, mojitos, wine, and beers like Corona, Peroni, and La Rossa, a double bock loaded with malty flavor that pours with a big orange head, much like Vincent and Jules up there.
