The Fontainebleau Miami Beach always knows how to throw a party—so it should come as no surprise that it’s going all out for the Chinese New Year. In honor of that special day, which will take place on Tuesday, February 5, the hotel’s upscale Cantonese restaurant, Hakkasan {4441 Collins Avenue, Miami Beach; 786.276.1388}, will celebrate with a limited-edition menu, an exclusive cocktail, and a special dessert. Promising to bring those “new year, new me” vibes, every dish on the menu will be made with ingredients believed to bring good luck and prosperity in the New Year. The best part? Guests can get this menu all month long.
Available as early as today, January 28, through February 24, 2019, the limited-edition menu is one that will surely leave foodies craving more. On Saturday, February 2, at 7:30 p.m., don’t miss the traditional “Chinese Lion Dance,” where lion troupes will make their way from the hotel’s iconic Bleau Bar all the way to Hakkasan, while the “lion” dances through latticed woodwork cages to promote symbols of luck, fortune, wisdom, and joy.
