Dear Sabah People,
With the weekend ahead, we're excited to share our 2024 Guide to Miami -- the city where the year always begins for us, and with 2024 marking our sixth annual residency at the Standard Hotel.
Sabah's guide to Miami features our favorite places to eat, drink, dance and visit -- a collection of recommendations to experience Miami, the Sabah way! For many of us, Miami is also our home, so we take pride in our knowledge of the city and its hidden gems.
We want to give special thanks to Highbeam, our banking partner, and the sponsor of this year's guide.
Read on for more, find our guide via Google Maps here, and follow along on Instagram as we highlight our favorite local Miami businesses and hangs. If you're in Miami, be sure to pick up the print version at our outpost at The Standard.
Enjoy!
Sincerely, The Sabah Dealer
