Here in Miami, there’s always a jaw-dropping dinner we say we have to try. But every once in awhile, there’s a dinner so intriguing that we do more than just say it—we make a reservation and actually go. Cue: this week’s Pappy Van Winkle bourbon-pairing dinner at StripSteak by Michael Mina {4441 Collins Avenue, Miami Beach; 877.326.7412}. It hasn’t even happened yet, and we already know it’s going to be one for the books.
Part of the Fontainebleau Miami Beach’s Cellar 1954 dinner series, a monthly event that couples some of the best wines and spirits from across the globe with top dishes from the Fontainebleau’s award-winning restaurants, this dinner pays homage to the hotel’s iconic inauguration in 1954. July’s Cellar 1954 installation will take place this Friday, July 21, at 8 p.m., and with it, it will celebrate one of the finest and most respected whiskeys on the market. Each course will be paired with 10-, 12- and 13-year-old Pappy Van Winkle Bourbon, and after dinner, whiskey-lovers can head down to the lower restaurant deck for cigars and a nightcap of 15-, 20- and 23-year-old Pappy.
