nachosTuesday night, the dashing Nacho Figueras, polo star and Ralph Lauren model hosted Ocean Drive magazine’s cover party at Coco de Ville.

On Friday night, Rosie O’Donnell was spotted at Lucky Strike Lanes & Lounge with a group of tweens and a few adults. O’Donnell reportedly bowled two rounds and scored a 91 on game one.

Also on Friday night Kourtney and Khloe Kardashian enjoyed a “sisters’ night out” at Coco de Ville.  Sources tell us they toasted with a glass of champagne and then went crazy dancing when “I’m in Miami trick” came on.  At one point Khloe asked to play bartender and got behind the bar to take drink orders and pass out shots to partygoers.

On Wednesday, Serena Williams and five of her friends, including Jeremy Shockey enjoyed meatballs at Macaluso’s in Miami Beach.
