Josephine Baker didn’t just perform; she stood for something greater.
At a time when Miami Beach was divided by race, she refused to accept the barriers placed before her, using her voice, her presence, and her power to challenge the status quo.
Her courage helped push change forward.
That legacy lives on Washington Avenue, the heartbeat of Miami Beach, where culture, history, and progress come together every day. From global icons to the people walking the street today, the legacy continues here.

Washington Avenue BID welcomes Naked Tomato.
Renowned Chef Eyal Shani Opens Naked Tomato on Washington Avenue
A new culinary concept has arrived on Washington Avenue.
Globally recognized chef Eyal Shani—the force behind HaSalon and more than 50 restaurants worldwide—has opened Naked Tomato at the Moxy South Beach.
The restaurant takes over the former Como Como space, most recently used as an event venue, and introduces a concept rooted in simplicity and precision.
Despite its name, “Naked Tomato” is not about presentation—it’s about philosophy. Shani describes it as a commitment to stripping away excess and focusing entirely on the ingredient. The approach demands selecting the highest-quality products, understanding their character, and guiding them to their purest form. In his words, it is “high-risk creation… it is purity.”
What to Expect
The menu blends new creations with signature dishes from Shani’s global portfolio, spanning cities like New York, Tel Aviv, Paris, and London.
Guests can expect:
Roasted eggplant, Moroccan salad, and classic spreads like hummus, babaganoush, and labneh
Israeli-style skewers (shipudim), including wild mushrooms, shrimp, harissa chicken, and lamb kebab
Larger plates such as fresh catch of the day, tomahawk steak, and chicken schnitzel
The space, designed by Jacob Turgeman Design, also features a full bar, reinforcing its position as both a dining and social destination.
Washington Avenue Continues to Evolve
The arrival of Naked Tomato adds to the growing mix of internationally recognized chefs and elevated dining experiences shaping Washington Avenue.
Shani, who first launched HaSalon in Tel Aviv in 2008 and expanded globally, continues to deepen his presence in Miami Beach—further positioning the corridor as a destination for culinary innovation and global influence. #washavebid #nakedtomatoes
