100 Car ats of Pure Luxury Only the r arest of diamonds warr ant a name - diamonds of exceptional size, quality and beauty.

This is one of those diamonds.

In GIA’s history, very few polished diamonds of gem quality have surpassed the 100-carat mark. Already part of an elite group due to its size, the highly transparent nature of this diamond adds to its rarity. This pure diamond is classified as type IIa which scientifically means it is lacking measurable levels of impurities like nitrogen, thus giving this diamond its pure white color.

This diamond was fashioned into a classic old world cushion cut, with its smaller table and open culet. Its faceting bears resemblance to other worldrenowned diamonds, such as the 45.52 carat Blue Hope Diamond and the 105 carat Koh-I-Nur.

FROM THE EDITOR

A Dining Renaissance

CAPEHART

Dining in the Palm Beaches has always been something of a sport, with points earned for scoring tough reservations, being seen at the right places, and being the first to discover under-the-radar gems. This year, that’s true more than ever. Not only has the restaurant industry emerged from the COVID bubble, it has come back with such vibrancy you’d never believe we’re on the heels of a pandemic.

This month, we’ve asked some of the foodies of the millennial generation, who were among the earliest patrons breathing life back into the restaurant scene, to share their take on where to go for brunch with the besties, who’s brewing the best coffee in town, which dishes are most worthy of an Instagram post, and more. Come along as five young “hosts” take us through their favorite haunts in “The Millennial’s Guide to Dining in Palm Beach County,” starting on page 62.

In Palm Beach, the youth revolution has such momentum that it has been dubbed a “youthquake.” The term is not new—the ever-chic Diana Vreeland coined it in 1965, when she was editor in chief of Vogue—but it certainly has never gained this much traction here.

Now, thanks to a growing segment of fashionable, socially active, and well-connected youthquakers, the culture is shifting—and our cover this month reflects it. Michael Gregson Reinert, Joanna Gong, Samantha Cerny, Will Buchanan, and Devon McCready were gracious enough to sit for our photo shoot at Le Bilboquet (at midnight, no less) to document this moment in time. Thanks to the artistry of Joriann Maye-Keegan and a full production crew, the cover speaks of the exciting new energy percolating in Palm Beach.

This concept comes alive in our fashion pages, as well. Influencer Bettina Anderson dressed to the nines and visited four area restaurants for a stylish takeover. In “Feast Your Eyes” (page 70), you’ll see Bettina making pizza at Elisabetta’s, crooning with pianist David Crohan at Café L’Europe, using the bar at La Goulue as her personal catwalk, and mingling with the marine life at 1000 North. Fashion has never been so much fun.

Enjoy the pages ahead, and don’t forget to connect with us on Instagram (@pbillustrated) for behind-the-scenes content from these shoots and more.

In “How to Hide $400 Million” The New York Times says, “Fisher was not a normal family lawyer. Early in his career, at the height of the South Florida drug wars, he worked for the United States attorney’s office in Miami, prosecuting cocaine smugglers and money launderers.”

Fisher Potter Hodas, PL, is a law firm that concentrates its practice on complex, high-stakes divorce cases involving corporate executives, closely held business owners, professional athletes, celebrities, and wealthy families. n

As a creative outlet beyond her corporate career at Nestlé, Boca Raton resident Cecelia Feathers launched a mobile flower truck, the first of its kind in the area. “I am not a florist by any means, but I’ve always loved pop-ups, flea markets, and community events,” says Feathers. “I would go to these events all the time.

For years, I found myself saying: ‘One day I’m going to do this,’ and ‘One day I’m going to do that.’ A mobile business has always been one of those ‘one day’ things for me.”

Last year, she decided to turn “one day” into “today.” Feathers found a Japanese Kei truck, converted it into a floral fantasy on wheels, and soon booked her first events, including a pop-up at Rosemary Square. Now Birdie Floral Truck makes appearances around Palm Beach and Broward counties with Feathers’ signature collection of fresh and dried flowers and stems, pampas grass, and other unique items. It is also available to rent for events and photo shoots. (birdiefloral truck.com)

INSIDER FRESH START

There’s perhaps never been a better welcome to Palm Beach than the one awaiting new arrivals at Good Samaritan Medical Center. This spring, just in time for Mother’s Day, the hospital partnered with the island’s most iconic resort wear brand to create birthing suites and a family waiting room decked out in a Lilly Pulitzer theme.

Think: hand-painted murals, bedding and window coverings in signature Pulitzer

prints, and a matching Lilly Pulitzer swaddle set for mother and baby. Additional features include concierge service, waterfront views, and a VIP food and beverage menu to elevate the experience for the whole family.

The suites cost $750 per night with a maximum two-night charge. They are available on a first-come, first-served basis, and can be booked by calling 561-650-6386. (goodsamaritanmc.com)

NEW NEIGHBORS West Palm Beach is layered with distinctive neighborhoods, but the latest to make its mark is the Norton Dining and Design District, or the Norton District for short. A project initiated by the Dixie Business Association, the Norton District represents businesses along South Dixie Highway between Okeechobee Boulevard and Belvedere Road, including the Norton Museum of Art, Hive, and Dixie Dining Corridor restaurants such as Table 26 and Civil Society Brewing. As part of an ongoing branding campaign, with a website soon to come, banners highlighting the designation (using the Norton Museum’s colors and font for the sake of cohesiveness) were recently installed along South Dixie Highway.

THE GOODS

MAY MUST-HAVES Every item by Cecy, Palm Beach Gardens resident Cecy Martinez’s luxury bag and accessories brand, honors the classic glitz and glamour of 1950s Hollywood, but one line is particularly eye-catching.

Martinez’s sustainable fish-skin bags are made from pirarucu, a massive freshwater fish native to the Amazon. The local indigenous population have long eaten pirarucu, but before they began to be repurposed, their skins were discarded. Now, after consumption, the scales are trimmed, dyed, and transformed into a luxurious leather alternative.

l

Martinez works only with ethical sources who harvest legally and in accordance with all wildlife regulations. While she will continue to stock bags made from pirarucu and other exotic skins, additional fish-based leathers are on the horizon, too. Her newest line features high-grain Canadian carp and perch skins in various finishes such as pearlized, suede, and matte.

Cecy handbags are available at various locations around Palm Beach, including Haven and Callidus, and by private appointment. (cecy.com)

Cecy’s newest line of sustainable handbags feature “leather” made from pirarucu, as seen in the Audrey (left) and the Lauren (above).

CULTURE

HISTORY in the Making WITH A REVERENCE FOR THE AREA’S PAST, PLANS ARE IN MOTION TO REVITALIZE WEST PALM BEACH’S HISTORIC NORTHWEST

In the spirit of renewal, the West Palm Beach Community Redevelopment Agency’s various revitalization projects in the Historic Northwest District will premiere this year.

The cornerstone of the CRA’s work in the area is the multimillion-dollar revival of the Sunset Lounge, a jazz landmark that dates to 1925. During the racially segregated Jim Crow era, the Sunset Lounge belonged to the Chitlin’ Circuit—venues where African American entertainers could perform safely— and drew notable acts like Ella Fitzgerald and Louis Armstrong. Over the years, the hot spot fell into disuse and became a relic. The project aims to honor and restore the club’s musical roots, reawakening it for a new era in Rendering of Heart & Soul Park, as seen from above

both music and racial relations.

Once complete this summer, the renovated lounge will include a complete rehabilitation of the existing barrel-roofed building. The first floor will feature a bar and restaurant, while the second will return to its original role as a ballroom with a stage and third-floor mezzanine. In addition, a new two-story building to the east will house a kitchen, dressing rooms, and a box office, as well as a rooftop bar, patio, and garden.

Across from the reinvigorated Sunset Lounge will sit the music-themed Heart & Soul Park, which will harmonize with the lounge by providing a place for the public to enjoy lush green surroundings and water

Heritage Tourism Many of these developments, most notably the Sunset Lounge, will position the Historic Northwest as a destination for cultural tourism, also called heritage tourism, particularly when it comes to Black history. Heritage tourism centers a place’s past as a vital part of experiencing its present—acknowledging and honoring its yesterday while embracing and celebrating its tomorrow. features. Currently under construction, the park is also expected to feature community gathering spaces as well as a heritage trail, a butterfly garden, a playground, interactive instruments, and more.

Across the way is the pedestrian-oriented Styx Promenade project, which aims to preserve the legacy of the various pioneers who helped establish the area. Construction recently began to redevelop several buildings into replicas of the area’s traditional shotgunstyle homes, which will serve as mixed-use concepts housing eight local businesses.

Also in nearby redevelopment efforts, construction of a redesigned Currie Park is set to begin next year. Another project, Mickens Village, remains in the “concept” phase for now, but the intent is to create a bed and breakfast and a museum chronicling local Black history.

A revitalized streetscape along Tamarind Avenue is also in the works. (wpb.org)

All About PRODUCE

The dirt on pesticides and the war of organic versus conventional

By Ivey Leidy Photography by Kent Anderson Research has long shown that pesticide residue can contribute to health issues.

These chemicals act as endocrine disruptors, meaning that when they enter the body they can be mistaken as hormones, mimicking and disrupting the endocrine system.

The endocrine system is an intricate network of glands and organs that produce hormones that carry out the majority of our

34

bodily functions.

The hormones act as messengers to our brains and the rest of our organs and evoke corresponding responses. The hypothalamus gland, for example, controls water balance, sleep, temperature, appetite, and blood pressure.

The thyroid is responsible for our metabolism, while the pancreas takes care of digestion and produces insulin to regulate blood sugar.

The endocrine system also includes our reproductive organs, as well as our pituitary, pineal, thymus, and adrenal glands.

When faced with disruptors, the signals from our endocrine system can become mixed, affecting everything from metabolism to reproductive health. With chronic exposure, they may cause serious health issues. Pesticides collect over time and are stored in the colon. That one piece of conventional fruit is not the problem, but the buildup is. The best way to limit your exposure to pesticides is to choose organic.

Almost 70 percent of produce in the U.S. contains pesticides. Luckily, the Environmental Working Group (EWG) releases two lists every year: the Dirty Dozen and the Clean 15. The Dirty Dozen covers the conventional produce that carries the most pesticide residue. No. 1 on the list is strawberries. Studies show that one strawberry can have residue from 20 different pesticides. The Clean 15 outlines the conventional produce that is least likely to contain pesticides.

The benefits of eating organic don’t end at reduced pesticide exposure. Organic produce has 20 percent more antioxidants than conventional and no GMOs (genetically modified organisms), making them easier to digest and their nutrients easier to absorb.

Organic farming also produces less greenhouse gas emissions and better soil quality as it doesn’t result in pollution from run-off pesticides.

Eating in season can also help you get the most out of your produce. Because it’s being picked at peak ripeness, in-season produce has better flavor. These items are less expensive, given their abundance. They’re also significantly more nutrient dense as they aren’t being transported for weeks. Remember: The longer a fruit or vegetable sits on a truck or shelf, the more nutrient loss. We, as humans, are designed to eat seasonally. In the fall and winter, fruits and vegetables rich in vitamin C grow to strengthen our immunity. In the spring and summer, moisture-packed fruits and vegetables grow to ensure we are hydrated.

Read on for more helpful produce insight by the bite, as well as my recipe for a beautiful seasonal vegetable salad.

SPRING VEGETABLE SALAD THIS IN-SEASON, ORGANIC VEGETABLE SALAD MAXIMIZES NUTRIENTS AND ENHANCES HYDRATION INGREDIENTS 3 large handfuls of baby lettuces (such as, arugula or mixed greens) 1 large zucchini 2 radishes 1 bunch of asparagus, roughly chopped

1 tbsp. olive oil 2 tbsp. water 1/4 cup fresh mint Zest of 1/2 lemon 1/4 cup walnuts

LEMON VINAIGRETTE INGREDIENTS 2 tbsp. lemon juice (1/2 lemon) 1 tbsp. Dijon mustard

1 tsp. raw honey 1/2 shallot, thinly sliced and minced (optional) 1/4 cup olive oil Salt and pepper to taste

SHOPPING TIPS 1. Organic produce is labeled with a five-digit code beginning with nine.

2. Conventional produce is labeled with a four-digit code beginning with a three or four.

3. If the skin/husk is thick and tough like an avocado or a banana, it can be eaten conventionally, as the pesticide sprays are less likely to penetrate that thick skin.

034_LIVING_IVEY_0521.indd 35

In a lidded sauté pan, add the asparagus, olive oil, and water. Cook on medium for 5 minutes with lid on or until tender but still vibrant and green. Using a vegetable peeler, peel zucchini into ribbons. Using a mandolin or sharp knife, thinly slice the radishes.

WANDERLUST

Under the HAWAIIAN SUN

From the Big Island to Lanai, delight in Hawaii’s top island-chic accommodations and experiential adventures

By Paul Rubio DISCOVER THE RENEWED MAUNA LANI, AUBERGE RESORTS COLLECTION Following a $200-million renovation and rebranding, the grand dame of the Big Island, Mauna Lani, re-emerges as the latest addition to

047_ESCAPE_0521.indd 47

the Auberge Resorts Collection. Cast across 32 coastal acres in Kalahuipua'a, a sacred space of wide beaches, fishponds, and lush gardens once reserved for Hawaiian royalty, the reimagined resort exudes an understated contemporary

style that heightens the splendor of its historysteeped grounds and builds upon its former open-air design.

whimsical sofa swings leads to a design-forward six-story atrium.

At the base shines a single reflection pond, artistically embellished with palm trees, wood slats, and hand-carved outrigger canoes. Vegetation cloaks eco-chic nooks kitted out with sectionals and rockers, accented by floral fabrics and wall paintings.

The organic aesthetic extends to the resort’s 333 guestrooms and suites, all of which are draped in earthy tones and textures to recall sweeping mountain or ocean vistas.

Refreshed amenities at Mauna Lani also capitalize on Kalahuipua'a’s striking environs. A trio of swimming pools overlook either the Kohola Coast or the ancient saltwater fishponds.

A full-service beach setup graces a sandy strip bordered by black lava formations. Facing the Pacific, HaLani restaurant serves locally inspired

breakfasts; think Kona coffee and ube (purple yam) pancakes with griddled pineapple and roasted coconut.

Neighboring Ha Bar and Grill and the Surf Shack are two barefoot spots for tossing back a few Lani Tais, the resort’s spin on the Mai Tai. Come late afternoon, oceanfront CanoeHouse offers the island’s most memorable dining experience: a front-row seat to the Big Island’s pastel sunsets paired with elevated Hawaiian cuisine.

Noted restaurateur power couple Matt and Yuka Raso’s locavore concept consummates a foodie fantasy. Diners can expect island produce and ocean-to-table assets over dishes like Kahuku corn “ribs,” grilled Big Island hearts of palm, and whole Keahole lobster basted with miso butter.

When staying at the Mauna Lani, take advantage of fresh programming spotlighting local culture, folklore, and pride. On an early morning paddle, witness the sun’s ascent over Mauna Kea volcano while learning about Polynesian voyaging and ancestral ties to the land and sea. Go back in time to Kalahuipua'a circa 250 BC with in-house historian Daniel Akaka. At the spa, relax during massage treatments anchored by traditional rhythmic motions and using island ingredients like sandalwood, turmeric, and honey.

With its thoughtful redesign and reconceptualization, Mauna Lani advances to a new era of modern luxury while carefully honoring Hawaii’s rich culture and history.

Hawaiian Islands, this 4,028-square-mile ecological marvel boasts dramatic landscapes spanning disparate climate zones—from wet tropical and dry temperate, to arid desert and polar tundra—and constitutes nearly 63 percent of the state’s landmass. Shaped from five shield volcanoes of different ages, the Big Island’s topography shifts from steam plumes and molten lava to fertile mountains and valleys underscored by towering waterfalls. It’s a mind-blowing natural phenomenon that’s impossible to grasp—unless hovering above it.

On the Big Island Spectacular with Waterfall Landing tour from Blue Hawaiian Helicopters, soar to sights inaccessible by road and zoom out on the island’s volcanic fury and mist-shrouded mountain magic. Beyond the nonstop drone-like vantages, look forward to a descent into the fiery activity of Kilauea volcano. Then, brace for an epic landing at the base of a waterfall hidden among the Kohala Mountains, before rising above its 1,000-foot counterparts that cascade into the

Waimanu Valley. Though shorter island tours are available from Blue Hawaiian Helicopters, spring for the Spectacular for a true once-in-alifetime experience. (bluehawaiian.com) GO OFF THE GRID AT FOUR SEASONS RESORT LANAI With a resident population around 3,100 and an area of 140.5 square miles, Lanai is Hawaii’s smallest inhabited island—and about as farflung as it gets within the United States. In this remote land, a sole coastal property houses a self-contained world of luxury and serves as an access point to Lanai’s culture and geography.

Located along the island’s southernmost reaches near the white sand beach of Hulopo'e Bay, the open-air Four Seasons Resort Lanai features everything one could desire from an upscale tropical vacation. A total of 213 guest rooms—brimming with personality thanks to designer Todd-Avery Lenahan of TAL Studio— are spread throughout heavily landscaped acreage in multiple low-rise structures. The

heart of the resort is a lagoon-style pool overlooking Pacific Ocean blues. Oversized daybeds and cabana cocoons are tiered along the hillside, maximizing privacy. Close by is the Retreat, an adults-only pool and lounge encircled by lava-rock grottos and a waterfall. Big-deal names headline the restaurant offerings, including farm-to-table Malibu Farm (which services poolside food and beverage) and iconic Japanese sensation Nobu. There’s also the fabulous Hawanawana Spa and daily complimentary wellness programs, including restorative morning yoga on the beach.

This excess may not sound very off the grid, but that’s where the activities center comes in.

Explore Lanai’s interior by horseback or venture through the forest on a guided off-road Polaris tour. Rent a house Jeep and choose your own adventure across endless dirt roads and windswept rocky terrain, likely without encountering another human the entire time; along the journey, discover petroglyphs, storied places, and secluded beaches. Closer to the resort, hike the short cliffside path to

STOP OVER IN RETRO-CHIC WAIKIKI, HONOLULU The Hawaiian Islands are well connected with multiple daily flights, but interisland COVID testing requirements may prescribe an overnight in Honolulu, Oahu, to await results from the state’s main rapid-testing facility (check hawaii tourismauthority.org for the latest information).

Even if a layover isn’t mandated, spending a few nights in the Hawaiian capital is worth it to feel the city’s pulse and experience its legendary beach and surf cultures. Stay at Waikiki’s

Kaimana Beach Hotel, a mid-century icon on Honolulu’s most prized stretch of beach that recently removed the bandages from a major facelift courtesy of Hawaii-based interior design firm Henderson Design Group. Embrace its modern boho vibe, most palpable in the colorful lobby festooned with beach-inspired art and hanging surfboards.

To go all out, book one of the five top-floor suites to enjoy breathtaking panoramas from an outdoor balcony and dine beachfront under the stars at Hau Tree, a shared-plates concept by James Beard Award–nominated chef Chris Kajioka. It’s currently the hottest table in Honolulu. (kaimana.com) «

STAYCATIONS

Miami Beach BECKONS

By Abigail Duffy If sumptuous luxury is the heart of the Faena Hotel Miami Beach, then art is its soul.

Faena’s reverence for all things artistic is evident in its entry lobby—affectionately dubbed The Cathedral—which is decked in gold-leaf columns and lush murals by Argentine artist Juan Gatti. Glass doors tease the sight of the hotel’s most coveted art piece: Damien Hirst’s Gone but Not Forgotten, a nearly 10-foot-tall woolly mammoth skeleton gilded in 24-karat gold and encased in an enormous glass vitrine. The installation represents Faena’s penchant for the showstopping and its larger-than-life aura.

This sensibility continues in the chandelier-topped Faena Theater, currently home to Tryst: A Lovers’ Rendezvous. This original show marks the return of live performances to the opulent space reminiscent of European opera houses with an edge. The production fuses burlesque, cirque nouveau, and sultry music for a thrilling and cheeky evening of aerial art, magnificent costumes, group NIK KOENIG

dance, and a little flirtation courtesy of headlining emcee Kat Cunning. From the tipples enjoyed by candlelight to the theater’s sexy red glow and the can’t-take-your-eyes-off-it grace of the ensemble, Tryst is a recipe for a spellbinding evening. Take it all in on Thursday, Friday, or Saturday nights beginning at 9 p.m., through the summer.

Either before or after the show, wander over for dinner reservations at one of the hotel’s epicurean darlings: Los Fuegos by legendary Argentine grill master Francis Mallmann, which pays elegant homage to the traditional asado, or Pao by Paul Qui, which specializes in bold fusions of international cuisines. End the night with a creative cocktail in The Living Room.

The spirit of indulgence also permeates Faena’s glamorous suites and rooms. Here, the hotel’s signature red and white motif appears in the form of luxe linens and colorful touchpoints, anchored by gold accents, handcrafted teak furnishings, and Carrara marble. In the morning, settle into a beachside lounger beneath a striped umbrella to savor daydreams of the evening. (faena.com; faenatheater.com) «

DRAWN to D.C.

Émilie Dulles is an engraved stationery and letterpress invitation expert at her own company, Dulles Designs. She grew up in Switzerland, but her family has a long history of international diplomacy in Georgetown; she is a relative of John Foster Dulles, who was the U.S. Secretary of State under President Eisenhower and the namesake for Dulles International Airport. She and her husband formerly lived in McLean, Virginia, and in a typical year, they pay regular visits to Washington, D.C. to meet with families and organizations commissioning wedding stationery, political gala invitations, and holiday cards. “The D.C. region has something for everyone,” Dulles says. She and her husband split their time between Charleston, Charlotte, D.C., and Palm Beach.

Instant KARMA

With its stunning design—and nontrivial $60,000 price cut—Karma Automotive’s new GS-6 is HARD TO RESIST

By Howard Walker Forget that this curvy, sinewy-bodied Karma is a plug-in hybrid. Or that there’s a fully electric version around the corner. Or that its dashboard can be made from timber salvaged from California wildfires.

No, what will have your head rotating like the gal in The Exorcist is the car’s breathtaking shape. The most beautiful vehicle in the world?

This is surely one of them.

Maybe it’s all those rollercoaster swoops and sweeps over the giant 22-inch wheels. Or that raked-back windshield or ski-slope-like rear screen. Or the way the body looks like it’s been stretched like a dollop of Play-Doh. Remember, this is a car that’s almost as long as a BMW 7 Series but as low as a Porsche 911. Gaze at it in profile and it resembles a hip-high Italian supercar—with four doors and a trunk.

But first, a little history lesson. Back in 2011, the LA-based Danish car-designer-turned-entrepreneur Henrik Fisker began building his 56

Fisker Karma plug-in hybrid. Before the company went belly-up in 2013, he’d made around 2,450 cars.

Enter the Chinese Wanxiang Group, which snapped up the assets, kept the gorgeous design, and renamed the car the Karma Revero. The corporation started producing the modified version at a new factory in Moreno Valley, California, in 2016. Alas, a crazy-ambitious $130,000plus price tag, a punishing safety recall, and constant funding challenges meant the car never really gained traction—or sales.

Fast-forward to 2021 and all has changed. After a $100 million cash infusion last summer, a solid business plan, and a ramp-up in dealers—we now have enthusiastic Karma retailers in Boca Raton, Fort Lauderdale, Miami Beach, and Naples—Karma is back.

Arguably the biggest news is the smarter pricing. The newly launched Karma GS-6 plug-in hybrid has a starting sticker of $85,700. That’s down

The Right FORMULA Formula Boats’ SENSATIONAL new 53-foot 500 SSC family cruiser debuts Mercury’s 600-hp V-12 Verado outboard

By Howard Walker The ghost of Don Aronow must be smiling at the awe-inspiring sight of Formula Boats’ newest flagship, the 53-foot 500 Super Sport Crossover, spearing across the water at an insane 60-plus mph.

Prior to creating such iconic brands as Donzi, Cigarette, and Magnum out of his gritty Thunderboat Row factory on 188th Street in North Miami, Aronow—the undisputed king of go-fast boats—founded Formula Marine in 1962. He sold the company two years later, but not before his groundbreaking 23-foot needle-nosed Formula 233 had dominated the Florida powerboat circuit, winning the 58

grueling Miami-Nassau and Miami-Bimini offshore races.

Aronow lived and breathed high horsepower, so the mere sight of this new $2.8 million Formula 500 SSC would have had him salivating. That’s because hanging off the back of this sleek, stylish, XXL-sized bowrider is a quartet of 600-hp Mercury Verado V-12s. The 500 SSC has the distinction of being one of the first boats to not only be designed around these truly revolutionary outboards, but to offer them at all.

These V-12s boast two-speed automatic transmission and a steerable gearcase—the en-

gine itself doesn’t turn, just the lower section.

Also impressive is that the engine is made to run 200 hours between oil changes and routine servicing, as well as a staggering 1,000 hours (or five years, whichever comes first) before more in-depth maintenance is required. No wonder they each come with an eye-watering $77,000 price tag: They’re a head-turning addition to a boat that already turns heads.

“Super Sport Crossover” is a fitting description for this multitasking powerboat. It’s part

PALM BEACH ILLUSTRATED

058_HIGHSEAS_0521.indd 58

3/30/21 10:52 AM

dayboat, part luxurious weekender, part grininducing thrill ride. Stretching 53 feet from bow to stern and with a 14-foot-6-inch beam, the SSC offers ample space for entertaining. Formula calls the concept SmartZone; here it totals 40 linear feet of cockpit on one continuous level.

The area under that vast hardtop is especially great. To open it, either power back the glass roof or lower the vertical glass sections between the cabin and the rear seating/eating area. And did I mention that the push of a button levitates a 65-inch flat-screen TV out of a cabinet? It’s ideal for watching the game or an after-dinner movie at anchor.

While that huge rear swim platform (which totals 71 square feet) kind of looks like an afterthought, it does give easy access to and from the water. It also provides a place to stow a paddleboard or two—or a spot to simply stand and gaze at those mighty Verado V-12s.

Stepping through the 500’s slide-open windshield leads you into the party-perfect bow area. There’s room for a crowd of 10 on

You can also drop the table to create a stretch-out tanning lounge.

If you plan to spend the night, the cabin feels more like a posh penthouse. It’s all sexy Corian surfaces, gray hardwood cabinets, and creamy Ultraleather sofas and wall coverings.

There’s a spacious aft stateroom with a fixed queen-size bed and large hull windows, plus a 32-inch LED TV and soundbar. Close by is the oversized head with a separate stand-up shower. And speaking of “stand-up,” the 500’s cabin boasts an impressive 6 feet, 7 inches of headroom. Other cool features include the

U-shaped sofa up front that converts from a dining area to a double bed, a built-in Dyson vacuum cleaner system, 16,000 BTUs of air conditioning, and multicolored LED lighting.

Regardless of aesthetics, the 500 SSC is all about performance. The hull has Formula’s patented FasTech multistep design that helps lift the boat onto the plane with ease, slice through gnarly whitecaps, and turn on a dime. And the 650-gallon fuel tanks should get you to the Bahamas and back with gas to spare. That would make Don Aronow very happy indeed. «

Millennials sometimes get a bad rap, but if there’s one thing we understand, it’s the holistic experience of dining—from an Instagrammable ambiance to the flavors and presentation of the food (yes, we’re always going to snap a photo before we dig in). Here, a few of our favorite local millennials highlight their top picks for dining and drinking around town.

The outdoor tables are surrounded by a hanging garden with incredible flowers, plus there’s poolside youthful energy—and tartare.

Favorite brunch spot: Almond Palm Beach Anyone who puts lobster in my omelet has my heart.

I love going to Fedco Pharmacy and grabbing caviar from its probiotic fridge and a Champagne split for a beach picnic. So Palm Beach!

Favorite hole-in-the-wall: Brass Ring Pub I love a salty dive bar, and this is an old Floridian bar and local staple. You see everything in the parking lot, from motorcycles to Mercedes with Everglades Club stickers.

Hidden gem: Blue Provence I order sandwiches to go, paired with a classic Coca-Cola.

Neighborhood haunt: Buccan You always will find an old friend at Buccan. My favorite dish is the shaved brussel caesar.

Instagram-worthy meal: Mac ‘n’ queso from Avocado Cantina There’s just something about a cheese pull that makes me revert back to being a kid. This one’s made with five cheeses, and you won’t regret diving into the majestic cheesy goodness.

Special occasion: Treehouse at Canopy by

Hilton West Palm Beach A nighttime view from the tallest rooftop in town is perfect for special occasions with a significant other, family, or friends. I especially love to dine at the cusp of sunset, overlooking downtown; it’s perfect for a toast.

Grab and go: Aioli

Celebratory dinner: Elisabetta’s in West Palm Beach The newly opened location is impeccable. The rustic Italian style is quite romantic. I recommend reserving a gazebo for smaller parties as it is outdoors with a beautiful view and a sense of exclusive seating. Everything on the menu is made fresh and ready for sharing.

Island vibes: Mr. Mack’s Island Grill Mr. Mack’s brings the Caribbean feeling I miss by serving up authentic Jamaican cuisine. Its signature jerk chicken is prepared in the outdoor grill; order it with peas and rice, hard dough bread, or steamed vegetables. The location is small, with not much indoor seating, but you can sit outside on the patio or hang around the grill for what we in the Caribbean call a “lime.”

There’s definitely a secret ingredient in Aioli’s biscuits that makes them addictive. If it’s early in the morning or if you need an afternoon boost, order the crack coffee.

Hidden gem: 215 Speakeasy If you’re looking for a bar with a little mystery, look no further than this secret bar that everyone knows, developed by Vincent Toscano. He knows exactly what you need without having to ask.

Best place for a cheat meal: La Fonda Sports Bar I have to go back to my roots for this one—La Fonda has some very good Colombian food.

I order the bandeja paisa, a traditional dish in Colombia. If you’re not in the mood to eat three pounds of food, the churrasco is really good, too.

Favorite brunch spot: Grato Grato does a lot of things right and brunch is no exception. The breakfast pizza is my go-to, as well as the omelet, which changes regularly.

Brewery: Civil Society Brewing Co.

This has been my go-to place for years. Civil Society brews all its own beer and is constantly collaborating with other breweries. I’m a huge fan of the Beach Access and a sour called Grandma’s Lemonade that is a must-have.

Neighborhood hangout: Cholo Soy Chef Clay Carnes doesn’t have to go so hard all the time, but he does. I’ve been a regular here since it opened, so I’ve run through the menu multiple times. My go-tos are the pork belly tacos, the cholitas, and the steak tacos.

The ceviche is always fresh and changes regularly.

Calm Waters

Hauk Cornell, Galley at the Hilton West Palm Beach For this chai-inspired cocktail, lead bartender Hauk Cornell sought a harmonious balance between spice-oriented tea and herbal tea.

He used his own chai spice mix as the base tea and paired it with a Canadian maple whiskey to complement the rich flavors. A syrup made from lemongrass and hibiscus flowers yields undertones of fresh florals and bright lemon. The blue color comes from oat milk, which Cornell steeped with butterfly pea flowers. The best part: The cocktail can be enjoyed on ice or heated and served warm. (galleywestpalmbeach.com)

As a mixologist at Palm Beach Gardens watering hole The Parched Pig, Rachel Amato takes cues from art and the seasons when creating a new cocktail.

For the Petal Pusher, she was inspired by springtime in South Florida, when cool mornings give way to sunny afternoons before transitioning into breezy evenings when open windows are de rigueur. Amato begins with Lady Grey a la Crème tea– infused Gray Whale Gin and then incorporates Velvet Falernum, a cucumber lavender shrub, oleo syrup, lemon juice, aquafaba, vanilla extract, and lavender bitters. The result is a refreshing and beautiful tipple ideal for a spring day. (thecoolpig.com)

Forget swanky soirees.

JENNIFER AND OMER HOREV prove that when it comes to entertaining, breakfast is the new dinner.

enowned chef and culinary explorer Anthony Bourdain once asked a simple question: “What nicer thing can you do for somebody than make them breakfast?” For Jennifer and Omer Horev, a healthy breakfast has become a way of life, a business venture, and an opportunity to entertain friends and family.

“Breakfast for us is the most important meal of the day,” says Jennifer, who serves as chief brand officer of Pura Vida, the couple’s health-conscious cafés with locations across South Florida, including one at Rosemary Square. “We sit down with no electronics and enjoy family time in our home.”

“

IT IS MOST REWARDING TO GET TOGETHER WITH FAMILY AND FRIENDS AND START THE DAY WITH A HEALTHY MEAL.” —Omer Horev

Omer and Jennifer worked together to organize the festivities, with Omer leading the kitchen and Jennifer working with Liz Ryan of Orange & Rose Events on the design. The meal began with passed hors d’oeuvres, including chia seed parfaits with granola (opposite page), and ended with croissants in flavors such as goat cheese, Nutella, and pistachio hazelnut.

084_PuraVida_0521.indd 87

Omer, Pura Vida’s chief executive officer, says that starting with healthy, casual food is at the center of everything—in his restaurants and his home. “It is most rewarding to get together with family and friends and start the day with a healthy meal,” he says. “That is very important to me.”

Both Omer and Jennifer grew up in homes filled with food and entertaining. Born and raised in Israel, Omer recalls that, thanks to his mom and grandmother, cooking was everything. “We grew up in the beach town of Netanya near Tel Aviv,” says Omer. “For Friday night Shabbat, we had an open-door policy for neighbors, friends, and my grandparents. So food and hospitality are a natural for me.”

Jennifer was born in Chicago (her grandparents owned a restaurant in Skokie) and raised mostly in Weston, Florida.

She learned about hospitality from her mother.

“My mom taught me how to create comfortable spaces with a feminine touch and insisted I learn to put things back where they belong,” she says.

But food and hospitality wasn’t the first career path that either Omer or Jennifer took. Instead, the Miami real estate market beckoned them.

Good thing, too: The pair met when they were realtors working opposite ends of a transaction.

Jennifer brought the buyer; Omer was representing the seller. “I believe Omer got the best deal of his life that day,” quips Jennifer.

With the sale complete, Jennifer and Omer soon became a couple. But they’d had it with real estate and wanted a new adventure. So they pivoted, pursuing a healthy dining concept Omer had been conceptualizing. “I was looking for a great healthy breakfast place in Miami for myself and could not find one, so I thought about creating my own,” he says.

“With the natural colors and vegetables that I loved in Israel, the idea of locally sourced, organic foods in a wellness hub concept was a no-brainer for me.”

Omer started Pura Vida Restaurants—serving healthy breakfast options all day—in 2014; Jennifer joined the following year. The first location opened on Washington Avenue in South Beach, followed by outposts at the University of Miami in Coral Gables, Edgewater, the Miami Design District, PALMBEACHILLUSTRATED.COM | MAY 2021

West Avenue in South Beach, and most recently Rosemary Square in West Palm Beach (with new spots in Aventura and Fort Lauderdale coming soon).

So when the couple recently invited a small group of friends to their waterfront home for a party, they decided to serve the most important meal of the day: breakfast. While Omer handled the bar, moved the furniture, selected the music, and took care of the dishes, Jen designed the decor, selected the flowers, and whipped up the eggs.

Their home is airy and open, an indoor-outdoor masterpiece with whitewashed oak floors, lots of stone, plenty of natural light, and a backyard pool and patio area that overlooks the Intracoastal Waterway. “When we bought this house, our thoughts were about entertaining friends and family here,” says Jennifer.

t used to be blue-chip bottles (classified Bordeaux, Premier and Grand Cru Burgundy, vintage Port and Champagne) that experts most prized—and that earned collectors credibility as they began the process of building a cellar.

But all that has changed in recent years, as the Golden State has gained equal footing in the wine world. Thanks to the

92

rise of California’s cult Cabernets, suddenly Harlan and Screaming Eagle have become just as valuable as Lafite and Mouton.

What follows is our roundup of vineyards and vintages emblematic of the newest batch of California collectibles. Like their predecessors, they can be expensive and difficult to find, but they will evolve over time and provide an exhilarating drinking experience.

VÉRITÉ

Pierre and Monique Seillan arrived in Sonoma in 1997 at the request of the late Jess Jackson, who wanted to make a wine as good as the legendary Château Petrus. Jackson had the deep pockets to make it happen, and Seillan supplied the winemaking talent. The result was Vérité (French for “truth”), a remarkable trio of wines that combine French sensibility with American charm—and boast an opulent mouth feel. Seillan picks the grapes before they become overripe, which yields high acidity, an appealing freshness, and a level of alcohol moderate by today’s standards.

The Range: La Muse (93 percent Merlot), La Joie (84 percent Cabernet Sauvignon), and Le Désir (82 percent Cabernet Franc); all $375.

PROMONTORY When you’re Bill Harlan, you can afford to be fussy: You can purchase land in the wilderness of southwestern Oakville, wait for the vines to mature, and scuttle the entire first vintage (2008) if you don’t think it’s good enough. With his son Will installed as managing director, Promontory is now coming of age and promises to be every bit as amazing as both Harlan Estate and Bond. It’s all part of Harlan’s plan to establish a “California first growth” and a 200-year legacy.

One and Done: The estate produces a single Cabernet Sauvignon, labeled (like Harlan and Bond) as a Napa Valley Red Wine; $700-$800.

Some translate the name as “word of mouth,” but it literally means “broadcasting from the hillside”—a good description of winemaker Eric Sussman’s (pictured right) graceful, artistic treatment of high-altitude Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, and Syrah. Sussman studied agriculture at Cornell and worked in France, Washington state, and throughout California before settling down in western Sonoma. His wines balance pure, vibrant fruit with an unmistakable sense of place. People collect wine for many reasons, but these are wines that collectors will actually buy and drink.

Seek Out: Savoy Chardonnay and Pinot Noir ($60-$70), La Neblina Pinot Noir ($55), and Las Colinas Syrah ($50) 94

OVID

Named for the Roman poet, Ovid is located high up on Pritchard Hill, which has been described as “Napa’s Rodeo Drive.” Ovid’s 15 acres of Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc were planted in 2000, on rocky, iron-rich soil that gives the wine an earthy, mineral-infused flavor. In addition to having one of the best vineyard locations in Napa, Ovid has benefited from superstar viticulturalist David Abreu and famed consulting winemaker Michel Rolland. The result is a powerful, concentrated, and age-worthy wine that has fired the imagination of collectors. Roughly 1,000 cases are produced in a typical vintage, with most of it sold to a mailing list.

Pride of Possession: Ovid Proprietary Red Blend ($325)

NICOLAS-JAY In 2011, entrepreneur and music producer Jay Boberg teamed up with lifelong friend Jean-Nicolas Méo (of Burgundy’s legendary Domaine Méo-Camuzet) to establish a small winery in Oregon. Pinot Noir is sourced from organic, biodynamic, and certified LIVE vineyard sites across the state. The partnership combines Boberg’s energy and enthusiasm with Méo’s intuitive knowledge of winemaking, not to mention the same coopers and barrels used at Méo-Camuzet. While the results have been electrifying, Nicolas-Jay is still in its early stages, and the quality arc has nowhere to go but up.

Don’t Miss: Single-vineyard Pinot Noir such as Momtazi ($125), Nysa ($95), and Bishop Creek ($120)

ADAMVS

Denise and Stephen Adams purchased 80 acres on Howell Mountain in 2008, at elevations of nearly 2,000 feet. As owners of Château Fonplégade, a St. Emilion Grand Cru Classé, as well as Pomerol’s Château L’Enclos, they were no strangers to the wine business. The couple spared no expense, hiring vineyard manager Michael Wolf and consulting winemaker Philippe Melka. The result is a rendering of mountain-grown Cabernet that stands all the clichés on their heads. Rich, supple, and sensual, the wines are a delight to drink now, while fine-grained tannins promise a long life. Production is low and might necessitate a search, but you will be rewarded for it.

Trio of Winners: TERESVS ($130), QUINTVS ($190), and the flagship ADAMVS ($350, pronounced “adam-us”)

ULTRAMARINE

A California cult sparkling wine? Absolutely. Ultramarine is vintage dated, composed only of grapes from the celebrated Charles Heintz vineyard, and bottled, riddled, and disgorged by hand. Self-taught wine scientist Michael Cruse was smitten with the high end of French grower Champagne (think Jacques Selosse) and decided to replicate that style in the Golden State. For those unable to find Ultramarine (or unwilling to spring for it), consider Cruse Wine Co., his second label, a collection of natural wines made from unconventional grape varieties.

Unparalleled: Ultramarine Charles Heintz Vineyard Blanc de Blancs and Blanc de Noirs ($200)

LITTORAI

Ted Lemon studied winemaking in Dijon and became the first American to manage a Burgundy estate (Domaine Guy Roulot in Meursault). After returning to the U.S., he and his wife, Heidi, spent years searching for suitable vineyard sites, while Ted worked as consulting winemaker to some of the state’s most prestigious estates. Littorai is a collection of high-altitude sites along the Sonoma Coast, from which Ted Lemon crafts California’s finest Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. No one does it better.

Top Wines: Chardonnay from the Mays Canyon, Thieriot, and Charles Heintz vineyards; Pinot Noir from Hirsch and The Haven on the Sonoma Coast; as well as Cerise and Savoy in Anderson Valley; $70-$120.

ACCENDO CELLARS When F. Scott Fitzgerald observed that there were no second acts in American lives, he hadn’t met Bart and Daphne Araujo (this page, top). After spending 25 years at their acclaimed Araujo Estate, the couple sold the winery and opened a new venture. Accendo Cellars is devoted to reviving the style of Napa Valley wines of the 1950s, ’60s, and ’70s. Grapes are sourced from some of the region’s top vineyards, including several owned by the Araujos, with the goal of producing wines with “balance and restraint.” The Cabernet has been sought after since its first vintage in 2013.

J.J. Cohn, producer of The Wizard of Oz, established his winery in Rutherford in the 1940s.

The property was sold after his death, with part of the acreage (including some of the original 1945 Cabernet vines) going to his grandson, Bret Lopez. Lopez has assembled a winemaking dream team and named the venture for a major character in his grandfather’s magnum opus. No more than 2,000 cases are produced each year of the flagship Cabernet Sauvignon, a rich and silky wine in the Bordeaux tradition that has been described as “combining power, ripeness, and restraint.”

OPENINGS

Ralph and Laura Lewis, the third-generation owners of Okeechobee Steakhouse, are penning a new chapter of their culinary legacy with Okeechobee Prime Seafood. Plans for this venture have been in the works for some time, but Ralph notes that the pandemic prompted action.

With COVID flattening their catering business, the Lewises decided to transform their event hall into a seafood restaurant. The space, which opened in March, now features a 138-seat dining room plus a 48-seat covered terrace known as The Barn.

“Our hope is to give our patrons a one-of-akind, elevated seafood dining experience,” says Ralph. “Providing an opportunity to enjoy impeccably sourced and prepared seafood, combined with the legendary hospitality the Okeechobee Steakhouse family is known for, will set us apart.”

Regional seafood takes center stage, with Ralph stressing that they’re procuring as much as they can from area fishermen. This includes Florida lobster, pompano, snapper, and “whatever is available fresh and seasonal from local sources.”

Patrons can expect artfully prepared classics such as tuna tartare, as well as dishes with a tropical flair, like scallops with a mango gastrique.

“Our culinary style starts with superior product,” adds Ralph. “Having been in the restaurant business for nearly 75 years, we have access to the best purveyors around. Our menu preparations are designed to ensure the seafood is the star, with a refined approach to sauces, seasonings, and cooking methods that enhance each variety of fish, shellfish, or steak we serve.” (okeeprimeseafood.com) —Mary Murray

Clay Conley’s innovative small plate restaurant, Buccan, celebrates its tenth anniversary this year. Long before he made his way to South Florida, Conley grew up on a farm in Maine and started his first restaurant job as a dishwasher at age 13. He worked in Boston with Todd English, eventually becoming the culinary director for 18 of English’s restaurants around the world. He gained fame as the executive chef at Miami’s Mandarin Oriental before moving to Palm Beach County and opening Buccan in 2011.

HOT SPOT

FRENCH FETE COURTESY LE BILBIQUET

When New Yorkers migrated to Florida for this year’s winter season, one of their most popular restaurants came with them. Le Bilboquet, the elegant French bistro on Manhattan’s Upper East Side, opened in Palm Beach in February with the goal of bringing a new level of excitement to island dining.

“When we first started looking in 2019, we felt the restaurant scene was missing some energy,” says Dobromira (Dobi) Trendafilova, managing partner for the group, which operates locations in Sag Harbor, Atlanta, Denver, and Dallas. “We think of Le Bilboquet as something very vibrant, like a house party where everyone knows each other.”

Designer David Lucido drew on Art Deco themes for the dining room and courtyard, situated in Via Encantada off Worth Avenue. Open doors allow the two spaces to blend together in good weather. The courtyard is typically full by noon, resonating with the sound of popping Champagne corks. On any given day, the most popular dishes are the Cajun chicken

and Le Bilbo Royal, a seafood tower with oysters, clams, shrimp, Alaskan king crab, and whole lobster. Almost exclusively French, the wine list is heavy on the classics of Bordeaux, Burgundy, and Champagne, and there’s an innovative selection of craft cocktails to begin a meal.

Owner Philippe Delgrange, who supervises the service at Bilbo (as New Yorkers refer to it), arrived in Palm Beach to set the tone for the opening. Reservations are only accepted on the restaurant’s website, rather than by phone or third-party platforms. Prospective diners should take notice of the dress code: Shorts and flip-flops aren’t permitted at this house party, particularly in the evening. (lebilboquetpb.com) —M.S.

Those who have visited Café L’Europe recently have surely noticed a change in both ambience and cuisine. The South County Road icon has received a much-needed “Palm Beach facelift,” says general partner Emanuela Marcello, who runs the 41-yearold institution alongside her husband, Mark.

After closing in early July for some minor renovations, the restaurant experienced flooding that necessitated a more substantial overhaul. The Marcellos embraced the opportunity to reimagine Café L’Europe for the next generation, while still maintaining its character. They knocked down an existing wall to create one large space unified by a U-shaped bar. Working with interior designer Sara McCann, they opted for more contemporary decor and coastal colors. They also added outdoor seating—a must during COVID times, but an addition that feels in step with the restaurant’s European essence.

“We wanted to maintain some of the architectural features of the original,” says Emanuela. “We wanted a guest to walk in and still feel like they were walking into Café L’Europe, but it’s a better and more updated Café L’Europe.”

REINVENTION

When the café reopened in November, it did so with two new executive chefs in the kitchen: Benoît Delos and Alain Krauss, both of whom previously worked at Chez Jean-Pierre, which closed last summer. Now, at Café L’Europe, diners can select longtime favorites such as wiener schnitzel, as well as Jean-Pierre mainstays like the beloved scrambled egg and sturgeon caviar appetizer. There are also a few new surprises, including a popular grilled Caesar salad and dill-crusted salmon topped with crispy leeks that resonate as elevated onion rings.

Emanuela notes that the changes are part of an effort to balance the chic and casual vibe that permeates the island. This reinvention also brings into focus the fact that Café L’Europe is a family-run restaurant, where all can gather for a social drink, a weekday meal, or a celebratory feast.

“Our motto is come in your jewels or your jeans,” says Jennifer Marcello, Emanuela’s mother-in-law, who often spends evenings circulating around the dining room. “We want to represent who we are, which is a warm, loving family. We want that to be extended to our guests.” (cafeleurope.com) —M.M.

TRY THIS

From Lebanon, With LOVE

Lebanese cuisine is grounded in the health benefits of the Mediterranean diet and based on the concept of sharing small plates, or meze. Nicolas Kurban is on a mission to bring that authentic cuisine to Delray Beach’s Atlantic Avenue with Amar Restaurant. “I wanted to offer something that didn’t exist here,” he says. “To me, a restaurant is not just about food but also service, ambience, design, and music. It’s a total experience.”

Nearly half of Amar’s menu is devoted to vegan and vegetarian dishes, based on recipes from Kurban’s father’s restaurants in Lebanon. Must-try items include classic meze such as hummus, baba ghanouj, and tabouleh; an entrée of el mehchi (eggplant stuffed with spinach, onions, and chickpeas, baked with tomato and red pepper sauce); and homemade desserts like kanafeh (a semolina and melted cheese tart with orange blossom and pistachios). A sampler option is available, and all dishes are accompanied with freshly baked pita bread from the wood-burning oven.

The wine list is sprinkled with selections from Lebanese properties such as Château Musar, Château Kefraya, Massaya, and Château Ksara. “Lebanon has some of the oldest and greatest wine estates in the world,” says Kurban. “We wanted to give customers the opportunity to experience them with our food.” (amardelray.com) —M.S.

SAVOR the State Discover FLORIDA’S homegrown craft distillers

By Mark Spivak If you want to visit a distillery, there’s no need to hop on a plane to Louisville and drive across the Bourbon Trail. Around 40 distillers currently belong to the Florida Craft Spirits Association, and they produce everything from rum and vodka made with local ingredients to aged expressions of whiskey. Here, we present a subjective list of the best.

Florida Farm Distillers: Marti and Dick Waters craft their awardwinning Palm Ridge Reserve whiskey on a small cattle farm outside Umatilla. This bourbon-style spirit is handmade in small quantities, aged in charred-oak barrels, and bottled at 90 proof (“whiskey the way it’s supposed to be,” according to Dick). Despite the low production, Palm Ridge Reserve is available at select Florida retailers. (palmridgereserve.com) Manifest Distilling: Located in downtown Jacksonville’s Sports District, Manifest is a full-scale organic distillery producing regular and barreled gin, potato and Florida citrus vodka, rye whiskey, coffee liqueur, and fernet. The facility includes a bar and tasting room. Tours are offered, as well as a monthly Discovery Series that allows consumers to get hands-on experience in the blending and formulation of spirits.

St. Augustine Distillery (left) is located in an old ice plant built by FPL in 1907.

Kozuba & Sons Distillery: Zbigniew Kozuba began making cordials and single malts in the Polish village of Jablonka. In 2014, he relocated the business to St. Petersburg with his sons, Matthias and Jacob.

The family still makes cordials (ratafia, triple sec, quince, and cranberry) along with vodka, straight bourbon, and high-wheat rye whiskeys. Visitors may observe the production of spirits in the copper stills brought from Poland. (kozubadistillery.com) Loggerhead Distillery: Named for Florida’s endangered sea turtle species, this Sanford distillery draws on local sugarcane, citrus, grains, and botanicals to create three varieties of moonshine, regular and sweet tea vodka, a key lime gin, bourbon, rum, and single-malt whiskey. Visitors are welcome every afternoon except Monday. (loggerheaddistillery.com) St. Augustine Distillery: Situated in a historic FPL ice plant originally built in 1907, St. Augustine Distillery is committed to community preservation as well as sustainability: They source Florida-grown agricultural products to make their vodka, gin, bourbon, and pot-distilled rum. Free tours and tastings are available, and the distillery is a stop on St. Augustine’s Old Town Trolley Tours. (staugustinedistillery.com)

Steel Tie Spirits Company: The Etheridge family has lived in West Palm Beach since the late 1800s and helped lay the tracks next to the distillery (hence the name). Steel Tie’s non-GMO, pesticide-free, and locally sourced spirits include vodka and three Black Coral rums, all made in a still hand-built by Ben Etheridge. (steeltiespirits.com) Tarpon Springs Distillery: Where else can you find ouzo but in the largest community of Greek Americans in the country? In addition to Papou’s Ouzo, the distillery produces Gramling Woods High Rye Moonshine, Anclote Very Small Batch Gin, and Claresso, an espresso-based spirit. (tarponspringsdistillery.net) Wicked Dolphin: Founded in 2012 in Cape Coral, a few miles from the sugarcane fields, Wicked Dolphin distills local ingredients in southern Florida’s largest copper pot still. Their Reserve rums (spiced, silver, and gold) are aged for a minimum of three years in barrels that once held Kentucky bourbon. Free distillery tours are offered by reservation. (wickeddolphinrum.com) Winter Park Distilling Company: Hometown natives Paul Twyford and Andrew Asher make everything from vodka and white corn whiskey to beer-barrel-aged rum and Florida’s first single-barrel bourbon. Tours may be reserved on the website, and aficionados can mash bourbon with the distiller and “adopt” their own five-gallon barrel, whose contents are bottled for them when ready.

SINGING the Blues Shani Core of Shani Core Interiors has a special affinity for this room. Not only is it located in her Palm Beach Gardens home, but it is also the space that launched her interior design career.

A native Texan, Core expressed her Southern charm through a curated collection of sterling containers filled with candies and treats, flow blue porcelain, antique cloisonné, and crystal. From the large footed silver tray she found in London to the monogrammed silver nut dish she purchased at Croghan’s—her favorite store in Charleston—on her fortieth birthday, each item evokes a memory.

“I love to use unusual objects not typically found in decoration and as many custom pieces as the budget will allow to create one-of-a-kind spaces,” says Core. “Sometimes it is only a few pillows, but these special pieces make all the difference.”

The end result, in this case, is an elegant yet comfortable open area where she can entertain. The room itself is more than just eye candy; Core draws inspiration from the process she used in this design when delivering personalization to her clients. (shanicoreinteriors.com)

BRIGHT EYED Chelsey Neuhaus of C Studio Interiors & Design kept the elements of this home office intact while refreshing the space with a welcomed earthiness. “The room had great bones and architectural features with the ceiling coves, wood flooring, large built-in wall, and windows overlooking the courtyard, but it was dark and uninspiring for our client to work in,” says Neuhaus. “We also wanted to add a feminine touch to the room through the use of brass, acrylic, and metallic elements. We achieved the look by painting everything from floor to ceiling in a bright, fresh white tone and then layered back in earth tones and traditional decorative accessories so that it would flow with the theme of the rest of the home and still feel warm and inviting.” Tequesta (cstudio-id.com)

If you visit Waterfront Properties’ corporate office, it will be obvious Waterfront is as much a marketing firm with expert knowledge and a budget to focus on the sale of your property as it is a real estate brokerage.

THE WATERFRONT ADVANTAGE

The last word that could ever be used to describe Waterfront Properties is ordinary. At Waterfront’s marketing headquarters, a diligent and enthusiastic staff works hand-in-hand with real estate agents. Together, they collaborate to expertly market their sellers’ properties and reach buyers all over the world.

Don’t assume this is the norm in every real estate office.

David Abernathy, Business Manager at Waterfront, says “my colleagues at other brokerages are envious of Waterfront’s 20+ person marketing team because we don’t need to outsource key marketing projects.” The company’s dedicated marketing budget provides the marketing team with the most up-to-date marketing technology, equipment and strategies.

How? Here is a glimpse behind the scenes…

PHOTO EXPERTISE / GRAPHIC DESIGN

In the digital arena, Waterfront’s in-house photographers, graphic designers and photo editors are highly trained and work with agents to understand home features buyers are looking for. Then the team is able to highlight the best features of sellers’ properties in all marketing materials. Using specific, proven strategies, they’re able to captivate buyers’ interest with photos and designs that make an impact.

EMAIL MARKETING

Through use of email marketing, Waterfront is able to communicate directly with thousands of potential buyers looking for properties similar to your home’s location and price range. Waterfront’s agents often know about properties before they are on the market which allows buyers to hear about them before they appear in MLS.

PRINT PRODUCTION

Waterfront’s team of production specialists and graphic designers collaborate to create high quality marketing materials such as brochures, postcards, local publications and special mail pieces. Their massive, industrial-sized printer allows the team to create all materials in-house and in a timely fashion.

Behind the scenes, the marketing team assists Waterfront agents to solely focus on quickly connecting sellers and buyers.

Owners/Brokers from many other areas have come to Waterfront to learn from Rob Thomson, Waterfront’s managing partner, about how the marketing team is able to free up agents’ time to focus entirely on finding buyers for their sellers’ properties.

When deciding to sell a property, Waterfront invites you to visit their marketing headquarters to meet with Thomson and the marketing team. They promise it will be anything but ordinary.

WEBSITE / SEARCH & SOCIAL MEDIA

In today’s world of digital giants like Amazon and Facebook, Waterfront knows the importance of web dominance. With a dedicated team focusing on the Internet and digital marketing, Waterfront’s websites consistently appear at the top of Google.

Their sellers’ properties are promoted on thousands of local, national and international real estate websites and social media channels, creating maximum online exposure for homes to the right audiences all over the world.

BERRY Interesting

While other berries may be headliners on produce shelves, goji berries are rising stars that are earning accolades for their health benefits. Also known as wolfberries, goji berries grow on a shrub native to China and have been used for centuries by those looking for a fountain of youth.

In addition to being a good source of protein, fiber, and iron, gojis (which can be eaten raw, freeze-dried into a powder, or consumed

as juice) are also rich in vitamins C and A. Better availability in recent years has led to a growing fan base and greater popularity in both diets and beauty products. Touted aesthetic benefits include the promotion of collagen, elastin, and hydration, and a reduction in hyperpigmentation.

It is important to note that goji berries can interact with certain drugs like blood thinners and medications for diabetes and blood pressure, so be sure to consult with your doctor before adding them to your diet.

GRAB IT ON THE GO. Head to Playa Bowls in Boca Raton for a Goji Bowl. The eatery’s blend of pitaya, banana, pineapple, and coconut milk is topped with goji berries, granola, bananas, pineapple, coconut flakes, and honey for a delicious, nutrient-packed combo. The Jetty Bowl is another way to get your goji on. Granola, goji berries, strawberries, blueberries, and honey are layered atop a chia pudding. Want to design your own? Goji berries are offered as an add-on to any of the seven bowl bases. (playabowls.com)

BLEND, SPRINKLE, OR STIR IT IN. Navitas Organics’ Goji Powder (available locally at Whole Foods) is freeze-dried goji berry juice that maintains all of the berry’s intrinsic vitamins. The company’s website offers recipes that highlight the ingredient, such as Gingerbread Goji Latte, Superfruit Applesauce, and Beet Coconut Sugar Cookies. (navitasorganics.com)

FOOD FOR THOUGHT

The path to healthy eating and achieving your ideal weight may involve simply trusting your instincts. The concept of intuitive eating came to prominence in the mid-1990s, when registered dieticians Evelyn Tribole and Elyse Resch coined the term and outlined 10 principles for incorporating it into daily life. In essence, intuitive eating lives outside of diet culture and instead prioritizes eating mindfully. Christie Caggiani, a registered dietician, nutrition therapist, and certified intuitive eating counselor with Therapeutic Oasis in Jupiter and Boca Raton, shares more about this innovative approach. (therapeuticoasis.com)

PBI: How does intuitive eating differ from traditional dieting?

Caggiani: The first major distinction is that intuitive eating is really about reconnecting with our bodies, its signals, and, as a result, rebuilding trust.

In contrast, we know that traditional dieting and rigid, restrictive rules [can] disconnect us and harm our relationship with food, our bodies, and the way our bodies actually work. Intuitive eating is about making peace with food and knowing that food is not good or bad, just different, thereby allowing us to honor what we’re needing in the moment.

Why is it important to distinguish between physical hunger and emotional hunger?

Physical hunger is our body’s biological message letting us know it’s time to refuel, something our body needs many times daily. When we diet, we disconnect from that crucial signal—sort of like losing the connection to the gas gauge in our car. Food is often used as a coping mechanism, either distracting us or attempting to comfort us, though it won’t truly “fix” the underlying feelings.

Becoming aware of the times we use food [in this manner] is a priceless piece of healing our rela-

PAMPER

tionship with food, as long as we can approach it from a curious, noncritical way.

What kind of successes have you seen with people who have adopted intuitive eating?

So often I see people who have come to the realization that dieting doesn’t work, but they don’t know what to do next. The joy that they experience when they realize they can eat real food, feel better, and trust their body to tell them when they’re content is priceless. As they learn to throw away the scale and start to respect their bodies, they find they become more confident in their own skin than they ever did on a diet. They learn to move their bodies with activities that are actually fun, rather than punishing themselves with gym memberships that they hate. And one of my favorites is when people learn that they can keep any food in their home—even food they used to overeat or thought was “off limits”—and no longer feel fearful of it or out of control around it. They feel at peace in their relationship with food, and their physical, mental, and emotional health is better for it.

How would you recommend people get started on a path to intuitive eating?

OCEAN SPRAY

Yoga teacher and aromatherapist Danielle Belliard founded La Femme de le Mer, an essential oil company based in West Palm Beach. Belliard formulated her States of Being collection as a means of balancing the body’s chakras, allowing energy to flow freely.

“The sense of smell has direct communication to our brain and can trigger energetic and physical responses in our body,” she says. “Although the effect may be subtle, scents can be used to

Get the fourth edition of Intuitive Eating, which was released last summer. The amount of research backing up the non-diet paradigm continues to grow, and [the authors] include some of those amazing findings in their latest book. Additionally, they created The Intuitive Eating Workbook, which can be done separately or in tandem with the main text. You can also seek out professionals who have been trained as certified intuitive eating counselors to help you through the journey.

evoke strong memories, instill calm, promote sleep, and support healing.”

The first four—Earth, Water, Fire, and Air—represent the physical elements of nature and evoke emotions associated with them. For example, the Earth mist is meant to inspire feelings of being secure and grounded. The other three focus on concepts such as mental clarity and intuition. The mists can be used on the body, in the air, or on linens. (lafemmedelamer.com)

Ever catch a glimpse of yourself in a mirror and notice that you’re slouching? Worried that your balance problems will lead to a fall? Posture and balance issues are not reserved for older individuals and they can have far-reaching health implications.

Good posture is actually a type of fitness. The muscles of your body are supporting your skeleton in a way that is efficient and stable. However, many factors can impede that ideal support structure. Some of these include pain or past injury, genetics, extra weight, or inactivity.

Technology addiction can also be to blame. Sitting at a computer, using a tablet or smart phone, or slouching on the couch while watching TV for extended periods of time can cause you to stoop or bring your shoulders forward. There’s also “text neck,” caused by continuously bending your neck forward. Even stress can result in overly contracted muscles and poor posture.

Forward posture can shift your center of gravity and increase the risk of falling. It also means your muscles have to work harder to

keep your body balanced, making them progressively tighter.

“Balance is the base of support, so poor balance affects the quality of everyday activities,” says Narisa Steinberg, co-owner of The Facility for Personal Training in Boca Raton. “Poor posture leads to conditions such as poor digestion; misaligned spine; back, neck, and shoulder pain; headaches; jaw pain; and breathing difficulty. If not corrected, poor posture can worsen health consequences.”

The facility’s state-of-the-art balance and posture lab offers a full-body scan that produces a graph indicating the position of the head, neck, and spine. The analysis reveals areas that need improvement and offers a library of efficient movements that can be done with trainers at the facility, at home, or both.

“Anyone suffering from poor posture or balance is a candidate for the balance and posture lab,” says Steinberg. “Posture and balance are predictors of a shorter life span, but they can improve at any age.” (thefacility bocaraton.com)

137_CALENDAR_0521.indd 137

nectedness of the universe, pinpointing the intersection between scientific phenomena and Buddhist principles. During his life, Iwasaki used his art as an expansion of his devotional practice of shyakyo— the reverent act of hand-copying sacred Buddhist texts—and drew on characters from the Heart Sutra. He interpreted this inspiration in imaginative ways, giving it new life as the glow around a flame, a DNA helix, lightning bolts striking an expanse, and more. (morikami.org)

DANCE OF THE SWANS After a year-long live performance hiatus, the Boca Ballet Theatre will honor the enduring spirit of dance with one of the most beloved ballets of all time. The renowned local company will stage Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky’s Swan Lake at the Countess de Hoernle Theater at Spanish River High School in Boca Raton May 8 and 9. Tchaikovsky’s devastatingly beautiful composition and the whimsical costuming will set the stage for the story of Odette and Prince Siegfried, who fight to overcome the cursed evil of sorcerer Rothbart.

Staying true to its mission to pair local talent with distinguished dancers from the ballet world, Boca Ballet Theatre has invited American Ballet Theatre principal dancers Skylar Brandt and Aran Bell to lend their talents to the dynamic roles of Odette and Prince Siegfried. Boca Ballet will also broadcast the performance virtually on Saturday for ballet devotees watching from home. (bocaballet.org)

Celebrate this sentimental holiday with items every mom will adore

By Emily Pantelides

This month I curated things that bring me joy and that I hope your mom will love as well, beginning with a handcrafted orchid from The Enchanted Orchid. This Palm Beach–based company makes forever orchids that are shockingly realistic. If she’s more of a fashion maven, give her a pair of earrings from Loren Hope or a purse organizer from Luxe Goodz. Making Mom’s home look and feel like a Zen getaway is a gift in and of itself. Start her home spa day with fragrances from Zent, which are reminiscent of high-end locales. For a matching moment, opt for these Mommy and Me sunnies from Pearl Girl Accessories or customizable bows from Bebe Theory. Of course, you can never go wrong with food and a strong cup of coffee, so l FOR MORE FASHIONABLE be sure to check out iGourmet, BUYS, WATCH THE “EMILY’S PICKS” Dylan’s Candy bar, and Franca SEGMENT ON CBS12.COM.
