IWC. Engineered for men.

Spitfire Chronograph. Ref. 3878: Back in the days of the dogfights, there was no technology to do the flying for you. A pilot who wanted to get the most out of his Spitfire needed to have an eye on every detail. The same goes today for an IWC Spitfire Chronograph, incidentally: the big central seconds hand together with the day and date displays and the propeller-inspired hour and minute hands are all within the pilot’s field of vision. And that could hardly be more appealing. Mechanical chronograph movement | Self-winding | 68-hour power reserve when fully wound | Date display | Stopwatch function with minutes and seconds | Flyback function | Small hacking seconds | Soft-iron inner case for protection against magnetic fields | Screw-in crown | Sapphire glass, convex, antireflective coating on both sides | Water-resistant 6 bar | Stainless steel |

v FROM THE PUBLISHER

It’s All About Attitude ’m writing this on an interesting morning. I’ve just learned that two young friends have devastating illnesses, but once past the initial shock, they seem to be steeled for the battles ahead. I have a couple of emails from other friends with pictures of babies born in the past week, rife with words of pride and promise. Four members of our team dropped by to express thanks for the company wending its way through another difficult open enrollment season, ultimately offering a nice range of health plan options. One of our executives came by to tell me his decades of driving low-slung, two-seat sports cars may be nearing an end. But as he creaked out of my office with a stiff back, he turned, smiled and said, “Or maybe I just slept wrong last night.”

Struck at first by the physical component to all this otherwise unrelated news, the attitude communicated is what I find myself pondering. I’m pretty good at discerning stiff upper lips from sincere smiles. My ill young friends have a positive outlook. The new parents know they have to start saving for college right now, but it doesn’t diminish their joy. Our employees would rather have lower co-pays and out-of-pocket maximums, but they’re happy the options were better than expected. The guy with the stiff back will ease himself behind the wheel this afternoon, put the top down and smile as he accelerates onto the highway.

I’m smiling, too, because a 15-minute slice of life this morning reminds me of what another friend often says: “Life is hard and it’s probably not going to get any easier. So get on the bus with a smile.”

I usually write about the media business, observations from my travels or the wonderful things to see and do and the great people to meet in this community. But I’m stuck on attitude today. I’m inspired by the positive perspectives all around me, and I feel grateful. Life’s blessings, after all, often outweigh the challenges. With that in mind, I am going to do my best to enjoy the ride.

v EDITOR’S LETTER

Life of the Party ovember is one of my favorite months of the year. Not only do the temps grow cooler, but also familiar faces begin to reemerge from points north and beyond around Thanksgiving (and this year, for Election Day). As everyone gathers in Palm Beach for the season, there is a festive mood in the air that is absolutely infectious. Time to celebrate!

One of the most compelling reasons to do so this month revolves around one of my favorite philanthropic causes, the Children’s Home Society of Florida. CHS’ signature event, the Ultimate Dinner Party, celebrates its twentieth anniversary this year and, to mark the milestone, has received a special gift.

Palm Beach Entertaining, a beautiful coffee-table book released in September by Rizzoli, will be officially launched at this year’s Dinner Party, with all proceeds benefiting CHS. Conceived by local philanthropist Annie Falk, the book is a collection of Palm Beach parties ranging from a glittering soiree aboard a yacht to an outdoor barbecue in horse country. It features tips from local hosts and hostesses, recipes for prized family recipes and insight on how Palm Beach society entertains.

What makes the project unique, however, isn’t its content alone. It was an allvolunteer effort—and a pretty massive one, at that—that came together for a single purpose: to help the children and families of CHS rebuild their lives and look forward to a brighter future.

When Annie asked me to help produce the book along with her, Victoria Amory and Aime Dunstan—all terrific women, all friends—I accepted with pleasure. Not only was it a great creative exercise that cast a national spotlight on Palm Beach, it also was for a meaningful cause. I think I speak for the entire volunteer team, which also includes photographer Jerry Rabinowitz and stylist Katherine Lande, when I say it was a privilege to contribute time and talent to a group that so deserves it. Happy anniversary, CHS. For a glimpse at the content of Palm Beach Entertaining, see “Palm Beach En Fête” on page 66; for some of the recipes, such as Kit Pannill’s famous pecan pie, navigate over to palmbeachillustrated.com. I hope you will see it as we do: a true inspiration.

Enjoy the issue.

v Jonathan Adler

TRAVIS SHINN

Iconic designer Jonathan Adler aims to bring style, luxury and cheer to the home. Since opening his first boutique in 1999, the part-time Palm Beacher now has 20 stores, more than 1,000 wholesale locations, partnerships with national brands and a book series.

Adler’s latest book, 100 Ways to Happy Chic Your Life, hits shelves this month. —Seth Cohen n Your new book is about living happily and Stylishly. How do you achieve this in your life?

Whether designing an environment—or your life—build a chic foundation and then layer in playful punctuation. My secret to a happy chic personal life is being part of a happy throuple with my husband of 18 years, Simon Doonan, and our Norwich Terrier of 14 years, Liberace. The people you love are the key to a happy chic life. n What’s the most unique item you own?

Obviously my husband is the most unique item—he’s a real one-off. Other than him, I’m pretty partial to my four-poster Paul Evans chrome bed. n How do you set a chic Thanksgiving table?

I’m keeping it simple, symmetrical and graphic. I’m using two of my giant brass horn objets from my new collection lying the length of the table with one of my Dora Maar bowls in the middle packed with gourds.

These items are unexpected—and still leave room for plates with oodles of food.

first class v Private Paradise Get back to nature—with a generous dose of understated luxury—on the Seychelles’ exclusive Frégate Island. By Paul Rubio Despite increased competition from celebrity-luring islets in the Caribbean and designdriven atolls in the Maldives, the world’s original lavish eco-retreat, the Seychelles’ Frégate Island Private, still champions an unparalleled recipe of natural grandeur and bespoke luxury.

One of Earth’s only high-rising, mid-oceanic granite islands, 750-acre Frégate retains the ecology and topography of its genesis, a splintered sliver of the 75 million-year-old supercontinent of Gondwana in the heart of the Indian Ocean. And it’s yours to explore. Part of the allure is getting there:

palmbeachillustrated.com | november 2012 43

diversions v first class

Frégate’s luxury villas are nestled among the granitic boulders. Step down onto your own private beach for sunbathing or exquisite alfresco dining.

44

Nearly as far off the coasts of East Africa and Madagascar, once you land in Mahé, the capital of the archipelago that composes the French-inflected Seychelles, a 20-minute flight whisks you off to the Darwinian dreamland. The cerulean surf, delicate coral reefs and luscious sands surrounding this fantasy of a waterfront paradise and the extravagant amenities within and among Frégate’s 16 luxury villas represent an intense love affair between nature and exclusivity.

While a staff of 150 stands at the ready for guests, one particular staff member truly shapes the Frégate experience—your personal butler, who greets you upon arrival at the helipad and navigates through the labyrinthine trails over gargantuan granite slabs and into modern luxury. He whisks you to your private hideaway, an expansive Creole-inspired wooden villa, a nod to the local culture, appointed with elegant yet muted furnishings, and ensures that everything from the temperature of the sexy infinity-edge pool to the supplies in the minibar is pure perfection. This dedicated gentleman offers “insider” knowledge to help develop a tailored itinerary for exploring the island to the fullest. He also can arrange for indulgences like private breakfasts on the beach and sunset cocktails on the island’s apex or in the forest tree house. No matter which of the island’s seven stunning anses (bays) you choose, he’ll make sure towels, loungers and favorite chilled drinks are waiting for you on arrival and continuously replenished.

PALM BEACH ILLUSTRATED

Dining surfaces as a major theme on Frégate. Each meal is its own experience, often presented in a unique location and consisting of a vast assortment of farm-to-table and sea-to-table delights. All fruits, vegetables and spices are grown on-island and fish sourced from surrounding waters.

My first fabulous culinary day began at breakfast high in the forest canopy in an enchanting tree-house, with homemade pastries, banana and fig preserves and a seafood frittata washed down with fresh star fruit juice.

Next was a lunchtime beachfront Champagne picnic followed by the finale: a private seafood barbecue under the stars. The next morning, eating festivities commenced with breakfast on the beach and finished with a divine Creole dinner at the historic plantation house, featuring seven types of fresh breads with eggplant, pumpkin and papaya dips, lobster and breadfruit curry, and coconut rum sorbet for dessert. I quickly learned a valuable lesson: Don’t expect to shed any pounds here.

Frégate’s multifaceted endowments appeal to all types of jet-setters. Hardcore sybarites and privacy seekers hardly break away from the view-heavy hilltop balé (an Indonesian daybed pavilion) and poolside chaises on the secluded villa terraces. When they do, it’s to soak in the scene from the rock-hewn outdoor shower, greet the butler for the next room service extravaganza or ascend to the cliff-top Rock Spa for a decadent organic treatment using products formulated on-island. When beach time beckons, unapologetic R&R awaits along Anse Macquereau, a privateuse bay with a large wooden “Do Not Disturb” plaque warding off unwanted company. More gregarious patrons spend time in the Frégate House, where the principal restaurant, bar and common swimming pools serve as a central meeting point.

Nature enthusiasts have a field day combing the boulder-strewn beaches and hiking to remote, ethereal crannies, stumbling upon such prehistoric creatures as century-old giant tortoises, 101 different bird species and arguably the largest millipedes in the world. Daily nature walks and lectures, helmed by resident conservation biologists, elevate the ecology theme. For those eager to explore the Seychelles’

mystical underwater world—what draws most people to the reef-rimmed island nation— snorkeling and diving opportunities abound, as the resort has its own yacht club and PADI center.

Beach sophisticates revel in the stunning swaths of sand enveloping Frégate. The combinations of velvety sand, aquamarine water and lush landscaping are simply breathtaking. Suffice to say, the dreamy, palm tree-lined Anse Victorin is consistently awarded the title “most beautiful beach in the world” in travel polls. Yet Frégate’s six other beaches are hardly inferior, each with its own personality and edge, from Grand Anse, frequented by nesting hawksbill turtles, to Anse La Cour, strewn with gorgeous seashells.

One hundred countries deep in my travels, I am often asked to pinpoint the most magnificent place in the world. While I’ll never be able to single out one location, Frégate Island Private indeed reigns in my mind as one of the world’s most coveted addresses, harmonizing natural beauty and man-made luxury, and providing the ingredients for one of life’s most epic and pampering journeys. fregate.com u

Epic pampering awaits at Frégate, whether on the beaches, private infinityedge pools or at a table high in the forest canopy.

E U C N O T H G I R XTS, Cadillac adds With its bold new . to American luxury smart technology LKER

BY HOWARD WA

If you’re a passionate iPadder and love the swish, swipe, tap and pinch of that little glass screen, you’re going to love the new full-size Cadillac XTS sedan. If you’re a PC rather than a Mac guy, maybe turn to Spivak’s wine page now.

The suits at Cadillac are keeping their collective digits crossed that buyers will wholeheartedly embrace its bold, tech-rich CUE system—that’s short for Cadillac User Experience. They’d better, because every new Caddy for at least the next five years is going to feature it as standard.

Essentially, CUE consists of a big, fancy eight-inch touch screen mounted high up on the center console. Move your pinkie toward the screen, and a proximity sensor detects impending action and wakes up the system. So far, so good.

Like the iPhone/iPad, the screen is populated by an array of icons, apps and virtual buttons. A gentle tap opens what you’re looking for—audio, climate, navigation, phone, vehicle settings.

One cool feature is the subtle vibration—called haptic feedback— you get when you touch the screen button, just to let you know your command has been noted.

Cool feature No. 2 is the iPhone/iPad element of expanding the screen with your thumb and pointer finger. This is perfect for my deteriorating eyesight when looking at maps on the nav screen.

It all works exceedingly well, and much better than Ford/Lincoln’s awful MyTouch system, which I’m still trying to fathom. But 46

PALM BEACH ILLUSTRATED

like anything computeresque, you need practice. And probably the help of your geeky 14-year-old nephew.

Love it or loathe it, ignore CUE and focus on the impressive overall package that is this new Cadillac. If you love big-car American luxury, you will adore the new XTS. And it is a big car. Roughly the same length as a BMW 7-series—202 inches bow to stern—it’s actually based on the stretched underpinnings of the Buick LaCrosse. Front-wheel drive is standard (yes, I know, not very premium), although all-wheel drive is on the options list.

On the face of it, the car’s 3.6-liter direct-injection V-6 doesn’t sound too thrilling, especially for those Caddy aficionados who remember brawny Cadillac Northstar V-8s.

But on the road, it somehow all comes together to deliver a surprising, sophisticated driving experience. With 304 horses, the silky-smooth V-6 will waft this 4,100-pound XTS from rest to 60 mph in a creditable 6.5 seconds. Cruising at 75 on I-95 is like driving on a cloud. And while eight ratios would be nicer than six— eight is the new luxury car norm—the transmission shifts from ratio to ratio with the smoothness of liquid Teflon.

The real surprise, and what separates the XTS from Caddy DeVille and Seville luxo-barges of old, is the way it handles. A brilliant combo of magnetic dampers up front and air suspension at the rear, plus quick-ratio hydraulic steering, huge Brembo front brakes and either 19- or 20-inch slim-sidewall tires, makes the car feel precise, confident and surprisingly agile through the twisties.

Perhaps the real appeal of the new XTS, however, is the way it looks, outside and in. Seen on the street, its styling is drop-dead gorgeous. I love the sweep of the roof, the smooth curves sharpened by upright headlights and taillights, the rippled hood. To see the car in profile is to make a grown man swoon. Or at least suffer a descending jaw.

A big body makes for a big cabin. It offers best-in-class rear seat legroom and a seductive cockpit-style feel to the front. Tony Soprano would give two thumbs up to the PODS-sized trunk.

{

Follow Howard Walker’s The Wheel World blog on palmbeachillustrated.com

Opt for the range-topping $60,000 XTS Platinum—lesser models start at around $45,000—and you’re treated to the highest-quality interior Cadillac has ever offered. Perforated full-leather seats that vibrate if you drift out of your lane, mirror-finished wood, Alcantara headliner and the most gorgeous, Bentley-like detailing.

Cadillac has been missing a flagship model for a while. You could say this new XTS arrives right on CUE. u

KORS

righton kors The charismatic designer talks with PBI about his connections to Palm Beach, his inspirations and his career—then and now.

BY JENNIFER PFAFF

He’s one of today’s most successful American designers—and one of the most outgoing.

Known to many as the sharp-witted judge on the Lifetime TV reality series Project Runway, now in its tenth year, Michael Kors is recognized for both his larger-than-life personality and his simple yet chic aesthetic.

“I’m always going to be all about finding ways to make you look more empowered and feel more confident, so it’s all about the body,” he says. “At the same time, I like glamour, but I also like comfort and ease. Those are the key ingredients that are always part of the Michael Kors stew.”

Kors launched his line at age 19, in 1981, when there were few high-end American designers.

Since then, the Council of Fashion Designers of America has honored him three times, most recently with the Lifetime Achievement Award in 2010. The vibrant designer opens up to PBI about his journey through the fashion industry.

How do your designs fit Palm Beach style?

The nature of me as a person is the nature of me as a designer in that I love luxury, I love indulgence, but at the same time, I like to be barefoot, I like comfort, I like ease. That’s always been how I design. My favorite places in the world are places that combine a sense of glamour and luxury with a laid-back, barefoot approach—kind of the best

Do you have personal ties to Palm Beach?

I’m very friendly with Aerin Lauder—Aerin and Jane and their mother, Jo Carole. I’ve known them a long time, and they have such strong ties to Palm Beach. The same thing with my friends Marjorie Gubelmann and Phoebe Gubelmann.

Whenever I am in Palm Beach, it’s fun to see all the generations, from babies to grand dames, all in one family.

Naples versus Palm Beach versus Boca Raton? And there is a slight difference.

Your designs are very versatile. How did you develop a knack for that?

When I’m actually fitting the clothes, I’ll say to the model, “Let’s try it with a belt. Let’s take the belt off. What does it look like if we throw a jacket on over that? Let’s try it with trousers. Let’s try it with a skirt. Can you wear it with flat shoes? Can you wear it with high heels?” As a designer, I’m very empathetic with the customer.

of both worlds. … I also think my clothes are very much designed for someone who loves to travel—how [would she] pack? And Palm Beach [is] filled with people who have a lot of points on their compass.

When you were launching your line in the 1980s, was Palm Beach a stop in your trunk shows?

Oh, definitely. Palm Beach is not often barefoot [laughs]. If it’s barefoot, it’s a gold flat sandal. There’s this incredible opulence and glamour, but at the same time, someone’s jumping on a bike and going to Publix and picking up a quart of ice cream. And I love that idea, that you can have this kind of American glamour.

It’s a small town with big-city sophistication.

Kors’ resort 2013 collection was inspired by a trip to istanbul.

What do you remember about the early years of your career?

When I was in my early twenties, I kind of looked like Christopher Atkins in The Blue Lagoon. I had shoulder-length, curly blond hair and I was in torn-up jeans and basketball sneakers. But the clothes [I designed] were very sophisticated. I grew up in New York so I was more familiar with certain cities. But suddenly, when you got to travel, you got to see: Is there a difference between how you dress for dinner in Miami versus

Where do you find inspiration?

I’m constantly refreshed when I go to different places. For me, it can be anything from Big Sur, California to Bali.

When I’m inspired by a place, I always try to think about how we take the mood or the spirit of that place and make it work for people’s everyday lives so they never feel like they’re in a costume.

If you weren’t designing, what do you think you would be doing?

Well, I love the theater, and I’ve always been a theater fan. We go all the time. I don’t think I’d be a great Broadway star, but maybe a great Broadway producer.

Who knows? It could happen. Again, I love to travel, so I think theater is a way to travel without jumping on the plane.

What did winning the Lifetime Achievement Award mean to you?

When I was in my 20s and designers won the Lifetime Achievement Award, I always thought they were, you know, 80 [laughs]. And so when I first heard that I won, my first reaction was, “But I’m too young.” My second reaction was, “But I haven’t been doing it that long.” And then, of course, the dust settled and I really was incredibly flattered. We were entering our thirtieth year, and it made me think. It’s a competitive game, the fashion game, and it sounds cliché to say, but it really is like the Academy Awards.

When your competitive peers decide to acknowledge you, it’s very gratifying.

For me, it was almost the halfway point.

It wasn’t the crowning achievement.

What else would you like to achieve?

I think the biggest thing to achieve in fashion is to stay curious and to be ready for what’s next. The world changes so frequently, and it’s going to continue to change. What do I want to achieve? I want to achieve everlasting curiosity. Curiosity and energy. That keeps you going.

Your remarks on the show are always so creative and memorable.

How do you come up with them?

Honestly, I never think about it. I don’t always look to be funny. I just go with my visceral gut reaction when I see something. And sometimes it’s funny because I end up saying things that a lot of people are thinking anyway. Instead of the designer thinking that it’s all about ruffles—well, it looks like toilet paper.

So I’m just honest. But at the same time, I know how much work they’ve put into it, so I’m always conscious of that and try to get them to do the best work they can do.

What’s the best advice you were ever given?

Before I started my own business, I designed for a store in New York called Lothar’s that was across the

JASON SCHMIDT

What’s it like to look back on the last 10 years of Project Runway?

Honestly, it’s gone incredibly quickly. We’ve now had more seasons than I Love Lucy. … I have to liken Project Runway to fashion in general: It’s always changing. There’s always something new. And that’s what keeps it interesting and makes it fun. I get to spend my time with smart, beautiful, stylish women like Heidi [Klum] and Nina [Garcia]. So if you’re a guy who likes fabulous women, that’s not a bad gig.

street from Bergdorf’s. And at the time, I thought I should go to work for a designer, because that’s what everyone did. There was a designer named John Anthony who was very popular at the time, and he was a family friend.

I went to go see him and showed him my work, and he looked at me and said, “You don’t belong working for anybody but yourself. You really understand women, and you know what works for them. Just stay true to yourself. You’ll always be successful if you just go with your gut.”

Did you take his advice right away?

I got discovered shortly thereafter [laughs]. Dawn Mello was the fashion director at Bergdorf’s at the time, and she saw the clothes and she contacted me. The next thing I knew, I was whipping up a collection and within a few months, the clothes were at Bergdorf’s.

What do you want your legacy to be?

Hopefully [the notion] that you can have it all. You can be glamorous, you can be sexy, you can be powerful and you can be comfortable at the same time. u palmbeachillustrated.com | NOVEMBER 2012 65

Lars Bolander and Nadine Kalachnikoff Thai Vermicelli Salad When it comes to entertaining, interior designer Lars Bolander and Nadine Kalachnikoff take an informal approach. That often means having dinner at the kitchen table—they don’t have a dining room at their West Palm Beach abode—with a full view of the open butler’s pantry. It just adds to the fun. They particularly enjoy Asian-inspired dinners, which might include this Thai vermicelli salad with shrimp and fresh herbs— simple, clean and healthy.

CHARITY BEGINS AT HOME

When Annie Falk conceptualized her latest philanthropic project—a book on cooking and entertaining Palm Beach-style—she looked to the Ultimate Dinner Party for inspiration. The signature fundraising event for Children’s Home Society of Florida, a charity Falk supports, was a capsule version of the quintessential Palm Beach party—vibrant, gracious and benefiting a good cause.

Falk and her co-authors—Victoria Amory, Aime Dunstan and Palm Beach Illustrated’s own Daphne Nikolopoulos—volunteered their time and talents to assemble Palm Beach Entertaining: Creating Occasions to Remember, a beautifully illustrated volume featuring Palm Beach society hosts and their parties. The book, released by Rizzoli in September and officially launching this month, is full of ideas and inspiration for table design and party decor, entertaining tips from hosts, and favorite recipes.

In the spirit of giving, proceeds from the sale of Palm Beach Entertaining will benefit the programs of Children’s Home Society. Available at booksellers and online at amazon.com.

Annie and Michael Falk Chilled Avocado Soup Philanthropist Annie Falk, the mastermind behind Palm Beach Entertaining, has been planning parties—for friends and family as well as for charity—for as long as she can remember. If there is one signature element to her soirees, it is the focus on sourcing fresh, seasonal ingredients that are organic, sustainably grown and ethically harvested. This chilled avocado soup was the result of a trip to the local market, where Annie found “truckloads” of fresh avocadoes, just begging to be puréed and combined with crème fraîche and roasted red pepper for a simply chic presentation.

Her dinner parties often bring together political leaders, captains of industry, philanthropists and scholars, so it is imperative to fête guests in a warm and meaningful way. That often includes elements that are important to her—her wine glasses bearing the presidential seal, for example—and food that is both wholesome and elegantly prepared. Miniature chocolate tarts and other petite pastries are a thoughtful way to end a meal.

Gucci 4. Loosen up like you mean it. If you want to skip the socks and unbutton your shirt, your suit had better fit you perfectly. Otherwise, you just look like a schlub.

5. “Black tie optional” actually means “black tie mandatory.” And no rentals!

6. Always have a pocket square and always be prepared to let your date use it.

GENTLEMAN PLAYER Legendary golfer Gary Player travels the globe but always returns to the relaxed lifestyle of Jupiter Island.

By Linda Marx | PHOTOGRAPHY BY KIM SARGENT

Like many South Floridians, Gary and Vivienne Player live a global lifestyle, traveling the world for business and pleasure.

No less would be expected of the winner of 165 professional golf tournaments, including nine major championships on the PGA Tour and nine more on the Senior Tour. Gary, born in Johannesburg, South Africa in 1935, spends a lot of time on international greens, some of which he built. Over 40 years, he has designed 325 courses worldwide, including some in South Carolina, Scotland and South Africa.

Vivienne, whom Gary says he knew he wanted to marry at age 14, was a leading amateur golfer in South Africa. “She could have gone pro,” he says.

PALM BEACH ILLUSTRATED

The Players are on the road as long as six months a year for business, golfing tournaments and charity events through the Player Foundation, which has raised more than $35 million for underprivileged children’s education. They vacation in Singapore, golf in Scotland, snorkel in the Seychelles and relax in Hawaii, where they have celebrated many wedding anniversaries.

Yet they always navigate back to Jupiter Island, where they own a home facing the Intracoastal Waterway. They purchased the property six years ago, moving closer to their two sons.

“Vivienne and I enjoy our time in the Palm Beaches visiting with our children, grandchildren and friends like Jack and Barbara Nicklaus, who live in the area,” Gary says.

When the weather is nice, Gary likes to join his children and grandchildren in a game of soccer, football, baseball or tennis.

(He is also talented at rugby, cricket, track and field, boxing and diving.) The whole family is sports- and fitness-oriented. Vivi-

enne, who hails from the South African Verwey golfing family, still plays the game with her husband.

“We enjoy practicing or playing nine holes at Jupiter Island Golf Club, followed by dinner at local restaurants like Cafe des Artistes, just off the southern tip of the island on the Jupiter Inlet,” Gary says. “Later on, we could watch Western movies, like The Magnificent Seven and Lonesome Dove, or sing and dance. We keep very busy.”

Yet, he adds, “While we love to swim in our pool, do gardening, and view sunsets from our patio, entertaining at night is a grand passion.”

The couple hosts business associates and sponsors and also throws important parties for their children. They even hosted the wedding and reception of their youngest daughter, Amanda, on their patio and lawn overlooking the water.

The fêtes generally begin with cocktails around the pool or in the family room, a classic space designed with Ralph Lauren furnishings. Gary and Vivienne like to open the sliding glass doors and take in the spectacular water views, which seem to go on forever.

The Players host anywhere from two couples to as many as 70 guests, depending on the occasion. Dinner parties tend to be more informal and family-style, with a few formal soirees held in palmbeachillustrated.com | november 2012 83

A Love for the Land Gary Player enjoys working on his Thoroughbred racehorse stud farm in Colesberg, South Africa, an interest inspired by his older brother, Ian, one of the world’s leading conservationists. Ian Player founded Africa’s Wilderness Leadership School, which is dedicated to providing a perfect wilderness experience to people of all backgrounds, and the WILD Foundation, the heart and soul of the global wilderness movement.

“My brother contributed greatly to both South Africa and the African continent as a whole through his efforts to save the white rhino and protect Africa’s land and natural resources through his Wilderness Leadership School,” Gary says. “The reason we even still have rhinos today is largely due to his efforts.”

Throughout his life, Gary has had an appreciation of the land and the environment thanks to his brother’s influence. This is why he savors moments on his stud farm. “I love to touch, feel and smell the dirt on my farm,” he says. “And I am not afraid to dig in and get my hands dirty. Plus, I can see for miles, and I hear no manmade noise. I am at peace while there.”

Gary’s golf course design philosophy and approach to the golf-related environment are also influenced by Ian’s ideals. Long before it was demanded, Gary approached design projects in a way that would help enhance the natural environment, rather than contribute to its destruction.

And while his father, who worked in the gold mines, showed him the value of hard work and taught him to have a sense of humor, it was Ian who helped Gary develop his positive attitude about life and overcoming challenges.

“Ian has played a pivotal role in my life,” the golfer says. “He toughened me up and helped me be ready to tackle whatever comes my way. I respect him immensely.” —L.M.

With ample property overlooking the Intracoastal, the Players enjoy spending time outside. “We love to take advantage of the great weather for casual outdoor entertaining,” Gary says.

their formal dining room, which is visually anchored by white Donna Karan chairs.

The Players, who celebrated their fifty-fifth wedding anniversary this year, refer to themselves as “80 percent vegetarian.” They grow their own fruits and vegetables on their farm in Colesberg, South Africa; here, they source organic produce from local markets, including Whole Foods in Palm Beach Gardens.

This philosophy extends to their guests. “We often serve fresh fish, poultry or meat options, as long as we are sure they are organically grown,” Gary explains.

Their favorite dinner party menu includes tossed green salad with avocado, pasta with marinara sauce or vegetable lasagna and brown bread followed by mixed berries for dessert. Occasionally, they have meals catered by Christafaro’s in West Palm Beach.

And at the end of the day, whether entertaining or enjoying an active lifestyle, the man nicknamed the Black Knight, Mr. Fitness and the International Ambassador of Golf reflects on his many blessings—a long and successful career, a wonderful family and globetrotting adventures. From Jupiter to Jo’burg, he wouldn’t have it any other way. u palmbeachillustrated.com | november 2012 85

REYNALDO MARTIN

This Thanksgiving, we didn’t want to serve another pumpkin pie, so we asked Stephanie Steliga, pastry chef at Café L’Europe in Palm Beach, for something a little more special. Inspired by fall, her favorite time of the year, Steliga created a dessert reminiscent of the woods in her home state of Wisconsin. She reimagined Café L’Europe’s Million Dollar Bar with roast pumpkin chocolate and praline fondant with a cream center. For a little crunch, she garnished the bar with pumpkin spice tea streusel, pumpkin seed florentine and two types of pasta, which mimick branches.

The delicacy sits atop edible leaf-printed paper, as though it fell out of a tree and straight onto our plates. (561-6554020, cafeleurope.com)

The Rye Stuff

From our founding fathers to today’s cutting-edge mixologists, rye whiskey has had an enduring footprint on cocktail culture.

By MARK SPIVAK

After a history going back more than two centuries in America, rye whisky is trendy again.

Rye became the center of controversy during the 1791 Whiskey Rebellion, when a tax was levied against farmers and distillers to help pay off America’s Revolutionary War debt. The citizens rebelled, and President George Washington dispatched a militia to put down the uprising. The president, ironically, was distilling his own rye at Mount Vernon (the restored distillery is operating again today, courtesy of the Distilled Spirits Council, and produces a limited quantity of whiskey).

The market for rye whiskey—along with most other brown spirits—evaporated during the vodka boom of the 1970s and 1980s. By the time the cocktail culture rose again from the dead toward the end of the twentieth century, very few producers were making rye. The grain formed part of the mash bill formula for most bourbons, and a certain amount of rye was blended into other whiskeys, but it had ceased to be fashionable on its own.

The current boom in rye whiskey, spearheaded by a legion of cutting-edge mixologists, took the A number of industry by surprise. The mixologists were seek- high-quality ryes are surprisingly ing flavor, which rye has in abundance: The whisaccessible. key is dramatic, firm and spicy, with assertive flavors of toasted grain and pepper. Rye had been the original foundation of the Manhattan, after all, so it made sense that it form the basis for a new range of designer cocktails. It’s still in short supply, although most distilleries have increased production to meet demand (Canadian whiskey is often labeled as rye but is not obligated by law to contain any, whereas rye whiskey here is distilled from at least 51 percent rye).

palate v pour One of the most famous brands is Sazerac. The Sazerac cocktail was originally made with Cognac, but bartenders turned to rye when the Cognac supply disappeared after the phylloxera epidemic in nineteenth-century France that plagued the country’s grapevines. Today the Sazerac Company produces two versions, a sixyear-old (around $35) and the 18-year-old ($100), named the world’s best by Jim Murray’s Whisky Bible in 2010 (the spirits equivalent of winning the Super Bowl).

Today there are a number of high-quality brands available at a reasonable price. Heaven Hill, the bourbon distillery that makes Evan Williams and Elijah Craig, also turns out the layered and complex Rittenhouse Rye ($25). Wild Turkey has just released its 81 Rye (also $25), a tightly focused whiskey with a surprising sweetness that mingles with the spirit’s substantial earthiness.

Toward the high end of the scale there’s Templeton and Michter’s (both $45), as well as the 21-year-old made by the legendary A. H. Hirsch ($130). A personal favorite is WhistlePig, a 100-proof, 10-year-old rye made in Vermont ($70).

In addition to the Sazerac and Manhattan, the whiskey figures in some wonderful classic cocktails. The Vieux Carré, which originated at the bar of New Orleans’ Hotel Monteleone, is a variation on the Sazerac: rye, Cognac, Benedictine, sweet vermouth, and dashes of both Angostura and Peychaud’s bitters. The Brooklyn cocktail, which is a descendant of the Manhattan, features several ounces of rye, an ounce of dry vermouth, several dashes of sweet vermouth (preferably Amer Picon) and of-

Winning Catch The seafood is brilliantly fresh at PB Catch, the newest venture from the owners of West Palm’s Pistache brasserie.

By MARK SPIVAK

Montana Pritchard Photography

Counter-clockwise from top: grilled black grouper with tomato caper relish and caramel soy-infused brussels sprouts; lobster bisque; Chilean sea bass with caramel soy-infused brussels sprouts, enoki mushroom, glazed baby carrots and crispy leeks.

Running one restaurant is hard enough, but operating two establishments at the same level of excellence is infinitely more difficult. Yet that is the challenge that Thierry Beaud, Reid Boren and Julien Gremaud, partners in West Palm Beach’s Pistache brasserie, took on when they opened PB Catch in December.

Step into the elegant and understated world of this seafood house, and there are many immediate clues that they succeeded. The entrance area is devoted to a bar and casual seating. The more formal dining room is flanked on one side by a raw bar, where a dozen varieties of shellfish are displayed on ice (if you’re in a celebratory mood, platters are available for $45 and $95). The space is crisp, modern and attractive, with white leather banquettes setting off dark mahogany flooring. Simple table settings promise a calm and ordered universe, and the restaurant delivers.

Less is more at PB Catch. Gremaud, the mastermind behind the kitchen at Pistache, is the supervising chef here, ably assisted by Chef de Cuisine Aaron Black. Among the starters, white tuna tartare ($15) is lighter than air.

Chunks of pristine escolar are combined with pickled cucumber, watermelon, scallion and shiitake to make an appetizer crunchy in texture and refreshing in taste. By contrast, there’s more than enough umami to go around in the seared jumbo scallop ($16)—a pair of remarkably sweet scallops undercooked to perfection, presented with sautéed oyster mushrooms and white beans in an orange broth.

The restaurant prides itself on promoting local fishing and sustainable seafood programs, and the entrée side of the menu is divided into Local Catch and World Catch sections. From the former group, grilled pumpkin swordfish ($32), a special of the evening, is plump and juicy, placed on a bed of sautéed spinach, garnished with a white bean puree and napped in a brandy sweet corn sauce. It takes an exceptional Maine lobster roll ($24) to impress a woman from Boston, but my wife was wowed by Gremaud’s version. The tender meat is chilled in a salad of red onion, celery, dill, tarragon and preserved lemon aioli, served on a potato bread roll and accompanied by some stunning sea salt fries. Diehard meat lovers may choose among

short ribs, chicken scallopine and a 16-ounce dry aged bone-in ribeye.

The wine list includes about 150 carefully selected choices, heavy on the classics of Bordeaux and Burgundy but with a good representation from California as well. Even better are the threedozen wines offered by the glass, including Familia Zuccardi Torrontes ($11), Pascal Jolivet Sancerre ($16) and Jordan Cabernet ($22).

Service is provided by a coed staff who seems to genuinely enjoy the work. Servers are friendly, accommodating and forthcoming with recom-

mendations, and they have good reason to be proud of the food quality they serve. Managers make a point to greet each table on arrival and check back in the course of the evening; Beaud, splitting his time between here and Pistache, makes the rounds of the dining room as well.

PB Catch enters its second season with a confirmed core of regulars, who are determined to keep the place among the island’s best-kept secrets. Despite that, the restaurant can get crowded on most evenings, and reservations are well advised. u

Typically, when summer ends, so do those much-loved specialty menus that offer divine culinary combinations at criminally low prices. Thankfully, Josef’s Table has bucked tradition and extended its summer prix fixe dinner menu well into fall—and beyond.

Now approaching its second year in operation, the Boca Raton establishment led

by Chef Josef Schibanetz, who began training in Vienna at age 15, serves a “Euro-fusion” of cuisine steeped in Schibanetz’s Austro-Italian roots.

The prix fixe menu, which runs through March, includes an appetizer, entrée and dessert for $42.95—a steal considering the generous portions. For starters, the jumbo lump crabmeat tower is assembled with even layers of crab, tomato, cucumber, avocado and mango. You won’t be able to finish the 1.5-pound Maine lobster entrée stuffed with crabmeat, but if you save room for dessert, order the apfel strudel, the restaurant’s hallmark confection. Josef’s deconstructed version of traditional Austrian apple strudel consists of sautéed apples and raisins between crispy phyllo dough, sweetened with cinnamon and sugar and served with whipped cream and mixed berries.

HEALTHY THANKSGIVING The average American consumes 3,000 calories during a Thanksgiving meal, according to a recent study by the University of Michigan Health System. How can you ensure those calories are as healthy and beneficial as possible? One way is to purchase a free-range turkey, which studies have shown is lower in calories and fat and higher in Omega-3s than a factory-farmed bird.

Florida Fields to Forks, a communitysupported agriculture farm based in Malabar, offers a variety of grass-fed, free-range meat and poultry options, including turkeys. Members order online and then pick up their orders at one of two delivery locations in West Palm Beach (floridafieldstoforks.com).

When it comes to side dishes, opt for organic. For a membership fee of $30, Palm Beach Organics will deliver a smorgasbord of seasonal produce, devoid of insecticides, chemicals and synthetic fertilizers, straight to your home (palmbeachorganics.org).

{

For more information on the health benefits of eating organic and free-range, as well as healthy Thanksgiving recipe alternatives, visit palmbeachillustrated.com.

There are two key ingredients to any weight-loss plan: diet and exercise.

Rapoport’s Restaurant Group takes care of both. Bogart’s Bar & Grille in Boca Raton, Deck 84 in Delray Beach, Henry’s in Boca Raton and Burt & Max’s—Rapoport’s newest restaurant, opening this month in Delray Beach— have rolled out an “Eat Well.

under the needle What if you could rewind the aging clock without surgery or chemical injections?

Mei Zen Cosmetic Acupuncture has gained national attention for its ability to replicate Botox-like results through acupuncture alone. The needles used, which are as thin as a strand of hair, can target a number of areas, including the face and abdomen. And it doesn’t stop there.

Traditional acupuncture and Chinese holistic medicine aim to heal from the inside out, so in addition to tightened skin, some patients see benefits like increased energy, improved digestion and decreased anxiety. In South Florida, treatments are available with Bella Lauren, a holistic physician based in Jupiter. Sessions last from 50 to 60 minutes, and treatment packages include 10 sessions.

CAREGIVER TLC When caring for a loved one with Alzheimer’s disease, you simply cannot go at it alone.

The Alzheimer’s Care Resource Center, based in Lake Worth, provides a network of resources for caregivers, including the blog alzheimerscareathome.com, which since January has focused its coverage specifically to the caregiver. The blog provides news, tips, coping mechanisms, coaching and community forums, but the main goal is to empower caregivers to relax, renew and reach out for assistance. Cindy Brown, vice president of the center, says the best advice for caregivers is to plan ahead, try to understand the patient’s perspective and take time for yourself.

Vine Beauty

Miracle Molecule

Scientists at Scripps Research Institute in Jupiter have designed a compound that reverses some of the complications with fragile X syndrome, the only known single-gene cause of autism. The condition, which can lead to mental retardation, memory impairment and autism, is closely linked to tremor ataxia syndrome, which normally affects men older than 50 and results in Parkinson’s-like symptoms. Both fragile X and tremor ataxia syndrome are caused by a structural motif known as expanded triplet repeat, in which a series of three nucleotides are repeated more than normal, causing problems with RNA processing. While the compound is still in the early stages of testing, it is capable of targeting the right RNA and reversing the defects that cause tremor ataxia, according to Mathew Disney, the Scripps researcher who led the study. scripps.edu

From the seed to the skin, the stem to the vine, grapes are packed with beautyenhancing antioxidants. Resveratrol, found in the skin and stems, restores firmness. Polyphenols, located in the seed, fight signs of aging and protect against sunlight and pollution. Finally, Viniferine, a naturally active ingredient derived from grapevine stalk, lightens dark spots. Caudalíe Paris has harnessed the power of the grape in its line of skin-care products, which includes the cult favorite Divine Oil ($48, us.caudalie.com).

Firefighter Anthony Ramos underwent pectoralis surgery.

REPAIRING PECS

A pectoralis major muscle tear sounds like Velcro ripping apart. Despite the distinctive sound, many are misdiagnosed. And even when these injuries are accurately identified, it can be difficult to find a surgery center that offers the procedure necessary to repair the tear. The Jupiter Medical Center’s Orthopedic Center of Excellence is one of a handful of centers in the country that perform this surgery in large numbers. Matthew Stiebel, an orthopedic surgeon specializing in sports medicine, has performed more than 40 pectoralis repairs using a special weave technique. Patients regain an average of 90 percent to 95 percent of their pectoral muscle strength. (561-263-3633, jupitermed.com)

agenda

Jake Shimabukuro is serious about the ukulele in a not-so-serious way. The Hawaii native first picked up the ukulele when he was 4 years old and quickly moved beyond the traditional uke repertoire to music he could more readily relate to: pop.

He gained international notoriety in 2006 when his cover of The Beatles’ “While My Guitar Gently Weeps” went viral on YouTube. Known for pairing a laid-back attitude with lightning-fast fingerpicking, he’s since followed that remake with other popular covers, such as Queen’s “Bohemian Rhapsody” and Adele’s “Rolling in the Deep.” On November 2, Shimabukuro will take the stage at the Kravis Center for a performance that will include crowd favorites, as well as music from his new album, Grand Ukulele, which was released last month.

Tickets start at $15. (561-832-7469, kravis.org) —Mary Gibble

FINALE

Dylan Lauren didn’t earn her nickname the “Candy Queen” without reason. The daughter of fashion designer Ralph Lauren is the founder and owner of Dylan’s Candy Bar, a colorful sweets emporium and real-life candy land that stocks more than 7,000 sweets—making it the biggest brand of its kind. While the flagship store is in New York, Lauren is bringing her love of candy to Miami Beach, where Dylan’s Candy Bar will open this winter on Lincoln Road.
