Walkable area in Coral Gables or Coconut Grove
I'm heading down to MIA for a short trip and am planning on checking out the Venetian Pool. I might also stop at the Biltmore for a snack or lunch. Since I'm in the area, I figure I might as well check out Coral Gables or Coconut Grove. Does either one of those neighborhoods have a walkable area with restaurants and window shopping worth checking out?

Miracle Mile sounds like it would fit the bill for you. It is an interesting stroll.

A couple of restaurant recommendations in the Gables:
Located directly on the MM, I recommend Ortanique:
