Peter Greenberg Worldwide—EAST Miami—August 12, 2017

Locations in this article:  Miami, FL

This week, the Peter Greenberg Worldwide Radio Show broadcasts from EAST Miami at the Brickell City Center in Miami, Florida. Joining Peter will be Mark Hatfield, Assistant Aviation Director and Chief Security Officer at Miami International Airport (MIA), who talks about airport security and the wild things—and animals—confiscated by the TSA. He also discusses the lingering confusion surrounding TSA’s liquid rules. Even though it’s been more than ten years since the 3-1-1 rule became official, many people are still not sure what counts as a liquid. There is also a discussion about the usefulness of the three standard security questions Americans are asked when returning from overseas trips. Jose Izquierdo of the Gold Coast Railroad Museum will have a history lesson on how Henry Flagler’s railroad shaped Miami. Carlos Frias, Food & Dining Editor at the Miami Herald, reveals why Miami restaurateurs are loving Peruvian food with an Asian twist. He tells the story of Zach the breadmaster and what makes the perfect Cuban bread. Maruchi Mendez & Roxanne Vargas, Authors of 100 Things to Do in Miami Before You Die, sit down and talk about where to get the best burger, Miami’s booming vinyl, and where to go for stone crabs if you’re not in the mood to brave the line at at Joe’s. Chef Nano, EAST’s Executive Chef of Quinto La Huella, discusses how Argentinean and Uruguayan culture—along with the local seafood in Miami—shapes his menu. There’s all of that and more as the Peter Greenberg Worldwide Radio Show broadcasts from EAST Miami at the Brickell City Center in Miami.
