Help Raise Funds for Hurricane Matthew Relief
Local businesses come together to organize a bake sale where all funds will go to help the women and girls of Haiti

This year South Florida residents were very lucky that Hurricane Matthew missed them. After seeing the devastation in Haiti, Daniella Biffi, Managing Director and Founder of Pollen Theory- a local PR firm, decided to bring together local businesses and members of the community to donate their products and services to raise money for the victims of Hurricane Matthew at a local bake sale.

Every last penny donated will go to Heart to Heart International, whoâ€™s PowrServ program helps women and girls by donating ”Womenâ€™s Hygiene Kits.” This organization is recognized for its dedication to strengthening communities by improving health access, humanitarian development and administering crisis relief worldwide. This charity ranks amongst the highest on the Charity Navigator website.

Bake Sale Information:

Why: Women and girls are particularly vulnerable in the developing world when thereâ€™s a crisis situation like a natural disaster. We wanted to focus our efforts in helping them deal with Hurricane Matthewâ€™s devastation with dignity.

What: All proceeds will go to the PowrServ program, who puts together the women hygiene kits. Each kit includes: 2 pairs of underwear, 2 reusable menstrual pads, washbowl, 2 bars of soap, 4 condoms, a whistle, crank flashlight, shampoo, toothbrush, toothpaste, comb, Band-Aids, hand towel, wash cloth, nail clippers and the following educational materials: Menstrual Health, Stay Safe Use a Condom, Pad Use/Care, Stay Healthy Wash Your Hands.

The kits cost $20 each and are invaluable to these girls. Our goal is to raise enough money to provide 100 kits to the women and girls of Haiti.

For those who wonâ€™t be able to attend the bake sale and still want to make a donation please visit: https://www.gofundme.com/hurricane-relief-for-girls-in-haiti-2tzb2x8

Craft beer lovers know that Grovetoberfest is a fun way to do some serious beer tasting of over 300 craft beers from around the world. This year, Grovetoberfest will move slightly South to Miami Marine Stadium; a move geared towards allowing more people to experience Floridaâ€™s largest beer festival. In addition, it has upped the ante by bringing a beer connoisseur on board who has been hand-selecting some of the rarest beers available for this yearâ€™s festival.

â€œWeâ€™re overflowing with good news. In our new home, Grovetoberfest will continue to offer local favorites and mainstream craft beers, but with a renewed focus on elite craft beers. We are working directly with the brewers to secure and reserve batches of incredibly esoteric and unique brews,â€ says Tony Albelo, organizer and chief sample taster for Grovetoberfest. This year, Blackberry Farms Brewery will be pouring in the VIP area. Civil Society Brewing will also be pouring at the event, making this the first time theyâ€™ve ever poured at a Miami-Dade beer fest. In addition, for the first time ever, Grovetoberfest will be pouring Prairie, Crooked Stave, To Ã˜l, Mikkeller, and Slim Pickins. Aficionados will delight in sampling beers in the Sunshine State-of-Mind, a collection of over 40 Florida breweries including Wynwood Brewing Company, J. Wakefield Brewing, MIA Brewing, Funky Buddha, Saltwater, Banging Banjos, Due South and Biscayne Brewing, to name a few.

The new location allows for more room and easier parking. Other aspects of the festival include the VIP Lounge, which will be hosted by Chef M from Latin House Grill. In addition, it will offer certain perks not available to the general ticket holder such as specialty brews, covered seating area and air-conditioned bathrooms. The Homebrew Pavilion will showcase special brews made by passionate beer drinkers; the Food Row will offer food for purchase and the Kitchen Lab will feature beer/food pairing demonstrations by local chefs such as Ryan Martin from 180Â° at the DRB, and Zeke Man from 305 Brews. As usual, a Live Music Stage will feature dance-inducing music throughout the entire day.

Cost: Prices vary

Millions around the world are tuning into what will be the most remarkable Summer Olympic Games yet. On Friday, August 5th at 4:30 p.m., JohnMartinâ€™s Restaurant and Irish Pub will kick off their Brazilian-themed â€œPremiere Partyâ€ for the highly anticipated 2016 Rio Olympics. Watch the must-see Opening Ceremony streaming live from all seven of their TVs, while wearing a Carnival mask, sipping caipirinhas and eating Coxhina and Pastels. And if you look like the famed Brazilian model, Gisele Bundchen, nowâ€™s your time to win prizes!
JohnMartins will be the perfect place to watch and celebrate your favorite athletes. Guests will also be able to enjoy a selection of Brazilian cuisine and the hypnotic rhythm of a Brazilian dancer during the Olympic premiere party.
The evening festivities will begin just prior to NBCâ€™s scheduled telecast of the event at the world-famous futbol (soccer) MaracaÃ±a Stadium in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Guests at JohnMartinâ€™s will have the chance to order the national cocktail of Brazil, called las caipirinhas, which is made with cachaÃ§a, sugar, and lime. â€œWeâ€™re trying to get as close to Rio as possible, without having to buy a plane ticket. We anticipate it being a night of celebration and unity, as the world comes together in respect and honest competition,â€ said Martin Lynch, co-owner with John Clarke. â€œThis event is a great opportunity to experience the hype of cheering for your country amongst a fun and friendly crowd.â€
The 2016 Rio Olympics Opening Ceremony will be an artistic spectacle, including more than 6,000 volunteers, and will feature welcome remarks by dignitaries, the Parade of Nations, and the final leg of the torch relay before the Olympic cauldron is lit. The last torchbearer is a closely guarded secret during the months-long journey from Olympia, Greece to Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. It might even be soccer legend Edson Arantes do Nascimento, known as PelÃ©, but it will remain a mystery until the show begins. This celebration of Brazilian culture and world nations canâ€™t be missed.
JohnMartinâ€™s has been continually recognized for its delicious cuisine and voted â€œBest Pub Food.â€ The restaurant has Trivia Night on Thursdays at 8 p.m. and Karaoke on Friday at 10 p.m. On Saturdays, guests can expect contemporary top 40 hits to rock to todayâ€™s popular Irish ballads and Sundays the restaurant serves brunch and hosts an Open Mic Night for aspiring singers at 8 p.m. JohnMartinâ€™s is located at 253 Miracle Mile in Coral Gables.

Photographs of South of Spice by Bob Quesada

Posted on July 27, 2016July 28, 2016 by MrQ305

This past Tuesday, hundreds of Foodies stormed the Southern tip of South Beach looking to experience the ultimate gastronomic crawlâ€¦and my oh my!!!â€¦ did they ever!!!

La crÃ¨me de la crÃ¨me of the world-class restaurants in the South of Fifth neighborhood rolled out their red carpets and proceeded to showcase their greatest hits to welcome the participants of South of Spice.

Only in its second year, South of Spice is quickly becoming the â€œmust doâ€ event for all foodies in the South Florida area. Its popularity can be attributed to three factors: affordability, quality and execution. Where else can you experience eight Top-Tier restaurants for $45.00?

Now, this is not a one meal, one dish type of set-up. We are talking about an unending parade of samples of the best each restaurant has to offer. You can eat as much as you want. Each restaurant also included complimentary beverages to accompany the samples. We are talking from a wonderful Sterling Vineyards Merlot at Red, The Steakhouse to Caipirinhas at Fogo de ChÃ£o.

As if the price and the quality werenâ€™t enough, there are motor coaches, provided by miRide, on constant rotation to effortlessly chauffeur you from doorstep to doorstep. You donâ€™t have to walk if you donâ€™t want to but after several waves of delicious samples, a little walking helps.

Another good thing about the event is that South of Spice benefits the CI Foundation and their community initiative Eat Smart, which finds a balance between battling childhood hunger and providing healthy meals to promote youth nutrition.

The participating restaurants were: Red, the Steakhouse; Cibo Wine Bar; Il Mulino; Fogo de ChÃ£o; Izzyâ€™s Oyster Bar; The Local House;Â Radio Bar and Craft Social Club .

We couldnâ€™t visit all of them this time around but we canâ€™t wait for next year!

Prohibition Style Dining Destination Trust & Co. Debuts in the Gables

Posted on May 26, 2016May 26, 2016 by Chat Chow TV

For VIXI owner Melissa Stam, gelato is in her roots. Stam’s great grandfather, Giovanni Rattazzi, opened a gelato parlor in his home city of Genoa in 1865 and her shared passion for gelato inspired her to open Coral Gablesâ€™ gelateria VIXI more than a century later.

VIXI proudly boasts a large selection of authentic and healthy Italian gelato made without any artificial flavorings, colorings or additives, using only fresh natural ingredients. Flavors run the gamut from traditional varieties like chocolate, vanilla and hazelnut, to the more funky like parmesan cheese and pesto with basil sauce flavored gelato. Lactose-free sorbets are also available.

Curious to know what the difference is between gelato and ice cream? And how exactly it gets its intense smooth flavor? Check out the video above to find out that and more.
