Every Monday, we post The Five Best Things to enjoy in the upcoming week. These things are selected by the Plum TV staff and often times by you.
They range from humble to haute and include exciting events, festivals and performances as well as dining, shopping and playing at various treasured spots, shops and institutions.
This week we're looking forward to...

1) If you enjoyed last week's flick at the Spa at the Icon Brickell, but you also want a full dinner experience with your movie night, celebrated chef Michael Psilakis' Eos is located right upstairs for your convenience! On Saturday, October 17, the feature film is none other than the horror classic Rosemary's Baby, so you can do the movie portion of the night a mere steps away. We hear that you can even expect cool surprises like candy corn in October and spiked eggnog in December. Reservations at Eos are recommended, so give them a call at (305)-503-0369. Movie tickets are $12 and include a gourmet cupcake and popcorn!

3) Dine at Miami's oldest bar and restaurant, Tobacco Road. Open since 1912, they've witnessed many Miami land booms, hurricanes, Prohibition, the Great Depression, and the rise and fall of South Beach, but the two-story structure remains virtually unchanged. It's been a speakeasy, a gambling den, a gay bar, a blues bar, and even a strip joint. Celebrities such as Gloria Estefan have even celebrated their birthdays there! Tobacco Road is located at 626 South Miami Avenue. For more information, visit www.tobacco-road.com. More Miami history below:
