I found the best piano bar in Miami—and it's hidden behind a dumpster
It's a balmy Thursday evening in Miami's North Beach. My friend, Jose, picks me up for a midweek rendezvous. We're heading to La Poubelle, a speakeasy cabaret in Normandy Isles, though neither of us is sure where to go. This place is a well-kept secret. They never advertise, they barely promote, and you won't find it on Google Maps, either. The exact location is revealed when you purchase tickets, and even then, you may struggle—but there are clues: poubelle is French for 'trash can'. I find the directions and read them out loud like I'm following MapQuest in the year 2004. After a few missed turns, we seemingly arrive at our destination: a nondescript parking lot. 'Are you sure this is it?' Jose asks. 'I think so,' I respond. 'I see a bunch of dumpsters over there. We must be close.' There's a handsome blonde man lingering by the dumpsters. That's definitely it, I think to myself, and that is definitely David. With sharp cheekbones and a charming smile, David Sexton is the face of La Poubelle. He's also the producer, maître d' and tonight, he's playing the doorman. 'Bienvenue!' he says. 'Are you here for La Poubelle?' Bingo. The making of Miami's newest speakeasy cabaret Chatting with David feels warm and familiar, like catching up with an old friend. He tells us La Poubelle just opened a year ago, in August of 2024. What started as a once-monthly cabaret has evolved into a neighborhood staple with 50 seats and five-plus shows per month, each one starring a Broadway-caliber talent. There's piano bar night and original one-man shows, songwriter debuts and even a 'cabaret dragaret' with South Florida's live-singing drag queen, Miss Bouvèé. Jose and I are giddy with excitement. Finally, the door swings open. Our jaws hit the floor. Behold, La Poubelle! My eyes widen to take it all in. Draped in crimson red and flickering candlelight, it's a fabulous supper club scene. The servers are decked in leopard-print tops, the bartenders in bowties. I hear the shake of an ice-cold martini while a platter of steak frites passes me by. There are feathered chandeliers and vintage lamps, and mismatched mirrors hung on the walls. It feels like we stumbled into a New York City jazz club, right down to the stage with red velvet curtains. That's exactly the idea, says Sandy Sanchez. Adorned in a leopard-print ensemble, Sandy is the founder and principal designer of La Poubelle. She's also the co-owner of La Fresa Francesca in Hialeah and Normandy Isles' Silverlake Bistro, two beloved restaurants with kitschy-chic interiors courtesy of Sandy and her curatorial eye. Sandy first envisioned La Poubelle as a vintage bazaar, perhaps with wine tastings and occasional live music. Soon, the vision grew as Sandy and David let their imaginations run wild. If we're doing wine tastings, why not food? If we're hosting live music, why not cabaret? David drummed up talent from his Rolodex of performers, acquired through years of theater and promoting the arts in Miami. Sandy got to sourcing all over South Florida, even procuring church pews from a local chapel. They brought on Yecid Benavides Jr. to design a custom stage. Finally, La Poubelle was ready to lift the curtain. Dinner that's as good as the show In a city notorious for tardiness, La Poubelle is packed well before showtime. The reason? Gnocchi mac and cheese rendered in duck fat. Also, torchon foie gras, bacon-wrapped dates and classic meatballs in a San Marzano sauce. Everything is catered by Silverlake Bistro and masterfully prepared by the restaurant's executive chef (and Sandy's husband), Benoit Rablat. Simply put, it's a feast for the senses. Jose and I opt for the flaky tarte flambée with onions and shiitake mushrooms, but really, it's the burger we're after: an ooey-gooey mound of double-stacked patties topped with thick-sliced bacon. But how do we order it? Neither the burger nor the steak frites is on the menu. Our table neighbors let us in on the secret: VIP ticketholders get access to a VIP menu and early entry. Guests of La Poubelle have their pick of cocktails, too, as well as wine by the glass (and bottle) from prized regions such as Bordeaux, Côtes du Rhône, and Napa Valley. Sandy orders the Vintage Savoir-Vivre, a frothy pink cocktail in a dainty coupe glass. It looks delicious, and so I do the same. We toast to the night and note the diverse crowd. Beside us, a 40th birthday party and a couple in their 60s. Behind us is a table of young twenty-somethings. Everyone is chatting and moving about, running into friends and befriending those around them. I sit back and watch in awe. If only more places in Miami had this magic. In classic piano bar fashion, guests are encouraged to tip the artists in exchange for a song request. I'm astonished at Victor's and Rick's encyclopedic memory (they rarely glance at sheet music), and the stellar musicianship on display. Guest performers grant Victor a short break. Some of them are professional singers, others are simply regulars. All of them are incredibly moving. An older gentleman with grey-blue eyes bares his soul for 'La Vie En Rose'. Songwriter Janice Robinson leaves us speechless with her performance of 'Beautiful' by Christina Aguilera. Victor brings us back to earth with a 'slutty' Broadway tune. Naturally, Billy Joel is thrown into the mix. One last ballad and a well-placed butt joke, the evening concludes to roaring applause. Heading home, I find myself wholly enamored, not just with La Poubelle, but the spirit of it all. The friendliness, the bonding with strangers, the unbridled joy of Broadway…all of it a testament to the kind-hearted folks who bring La Poubelle to life. David and Sandy, Miss Bouvèé, Victor and Rick, and the audience, too. The wonderful servers, Silverlake's team, and the bartender in the back who whips up perfect martinis. Life in 2025 feels a bit like a dumpster fire, but I'd happily dance through flames if it led me to La Poubelle.

MrBeast's wildest videos amid ‘real-life Hunger Games' idea
MrBeast has floated the idea of doing a 'real life' version of Hunger Games - without the killing, of course. The YouTube megastar is known for his extremely wild stunts in his videos. He shot to mainstream success after he released his $426,000 Squid Game in Real Life back in November 2021. Costing a reported $3m to make, the video has passed 800 million views on YouTube as of August 2025. But MrBeast might not yet be done with remakes of dystopian death games. In an appearance on The Today Show over in the US, he was asked about his idea for a real life version of the Hunger Games. Jennifer Lawrence starred in the movie adaptations in the 2010s, while another prequel film is due to arrive in 2026: Sunrise on the Reaping. The books and films feature teenagers forced to compete in brutal death matches, for the entertainment of the rich in the capitol. MrBeast told Today Show his version would 'not use real weapons' and involve dropping 26 people on an island, with the last one standing winning $1m. He pitched using 'laser tag' instead of actually killing the contestants, like in the original novels. It comes after his own reality show Beast Games came to an end earlier this year and crowned its first winner. Find out more about that here. Now he is talking about doing his own version of Hunger Games, I thought I would take a look at some of MrBeast's wildest and most extreme video ideas so far. Are your kids fans of MrBeast and his YouTube channel? Let me know what you think of his videos by email: . If you love TV, check out our Screen Babble podcast to get the latest in TV and film. 1 . $456,000 Squid Game in Real Life Even if you hadn't heard of MrBeast before 2021, you definitely heard about his remake of Squid Game at the time. He got real people to compete in a non-lethal version of the Netflix hit. It featured games like Red Light, Green Light, Dalgona and musical chairs. |for Netflix Photo:for Netflix Photo Sales 2 . I Built Willy Wonka's Chocolate Factory MrBeast, who now is a chocolate-maker of his own with his Feastibles brand, has in the past recreated Willy Wonka's Chocolate Factory in real-life. 10 players had the chance to walk away with the factory at the end of the video, as was the prize in the original book/ film. |for Netflix Photo:for Netflix Photo Sales 3 . I Paid A Real Assassin To Try To Kill Me For $100,000 Have you ever imagined what it would be like to be hunted by a real-life assassin? Well, MrBeast has had that experience. A 'real assassin' had a day to try and stab the YouTube star with a rubber knife to win $100,000. |Photo:Photo Sales 4 . Survive 100 Days Trapped In A Private Jet, Keep It One of the more recent efforts from MrBeast, this video came out in mid-July. He tasked a pilot with staying in a luxurious private jet for 100 days, with the carrot that if he accomplished it, he would get to keep the jet. Not sure I would be able to manage that. | Alberto E.
