It’s one of Miami’s most exclusive summertime foodie events… and YOU’RE INVITED.

On Tuesday, July 21, South Beach’s newest hot spot, Tantalize Miami {330 Lincoln Road, Miami Beach; 305.695.1401}, is hosting a private dinner presented by Gilt City and Lee Brian Schrager (of South Beach Wine & Food Festival fame). Prepared to indulge all your senses at this new dining destination, which combines pan-Latin cuisine with seductive entertainment.

The event begins at 7pm with a meet-and-greet cocktail hour, where you can personally chat with Schrager while noshing on specially crafted hors d’oeuvres like Pomegranate-Barbecue Octopus Tacos and Wagyu Sirloin Tartar with a sunnyside-up egg.

You’ll then sit down to an innovative five-course tasting menu by Tantalize’s Executive Chef Horacio Rivadero. The meal will start with a dish of lobster, shrimp, clams, and octopus in a citrus-passion fruit sauce. It continues with Lamb Foie Gras Meatballs with pistachio chimichurri and Cobia with chorizo and plantain gremolata. For the main event, there will be Filet Mignon Churrasco with yuca pastel, heirloom tomato escabeche, and chimichurri, while a duo of Quinoa-Coconut Pudding and Chocolate Flan will end your evening on a sweet note. Each course will be paired with an equally fine wine.

Not to mention that during your meal, you’ll be able to sit back and enjoy Tantalize’s cool décor and witness its unique twist on live entertainment.

Have you heard? The South Beach Wine & Food Festival kicks off on February 19, and with that comes country’s most celebrated and celebrity chefs to cook and celebrate right on Miami’s sandy shores. 75 events are expected to take place over the four day festival, including classic favorites and new additions.

“This is surely a year that our loyal fans will do a double-take at the program and new attendees will find plenty of events to choose from,” predicts Festival Founder & Director Lee Brian Schrager. ” “We have made significant changes to upgrade the experience at our signature Whole Foods Market Grand Tasting Village and are taking our beloved event, The Q, to the next level by partnering with Meatopia.”

So what are these changes? At the Whole Foods Market Grand Tasting Village, you’ll notice more seating and shaded areas this year, more live music and DJs, and complimentary ‘park and ride’ offerings to take you to and from the garage to the venue. You’ll also see the introduction of Culinary Captains, who will represent chefs from respective neighborhoods throughout South Florida.

There will also be entirely new events, notably, a Poolside Paella Party hosted by José Andrés of The Bazaar, a late-night spiced up soirée hosted by Bobby Flay and a tiki-themed poolside bartender competition hosted by Emeril Lagasse.
