Noise ordinances are often the bane of live performances venues. A jazz brunch in Miami Beach has sparked litigation between the city and a cafe owner with an interesting twist over the constitutionality of the city's noise ordinance.
Parisian-style cafe Bakehouse held a jazz brunch in January, the second of a weekly feature planned for the venue that opened in November in Miami Beach's affluent South of Fifth neighborhood.
