I visited Havana, Miami | Jimmy Butler Travel Vlog

In this unscripted travel vlog, Jimmy Butler arrives in Miami’s Little Havana and dives into the neighborhood’s everyday culture. He starts by ordering a traditional Cuban coffee (negro café con leche) and sampling pastelitos, describing the local “Cuban special” breakfast of fried ham, eggs, and tostada. Butler meets several local characters, including a man he calls “Big Papa,” a cigar shop owner, and a group of seasoned domino players. He learns that dominoes are used by locals to teach counting and that the game is a central social activity. Butler joins a high‑energy domino match, narrating the gameplay, scores, and his competitive banter, ultimately winning the 7‑game series. Throughout, he comments on the vibrant street art, the habit of sharing coffee, and the overall atmosphere of Little Havana, ending with a celebratory recap of his experience and gratitude for the community.
