IRIO MACCIONI— A Tribute to a Living Legend | Sat. December 8, 2012 The highlight of the sixth annual Palm Beach Food and Wine Festival is undoubtedly the tribute to the world’s most famous restaurateur— Sirio Macccioni— Internationally recognized as the face of his award winning flagship restaurant, Le Cirque. Sirio is much more than that. “Sirio has an innate ability to make every guest feel special... Catering to the regulars’ needs to feel specially welcomed, and greeting first time guests who need to feel equally important. I remember one special occasion in the late 80’s when Margaux
Hemingway escorted my 80 year old mother to Le Cirque for lunch. Sirio made sure my mom felt as important if not more than the celebrities and power players who surrounded us,” says Maribel. “True Class is the natural ability to be anywhere, with anyone and everyone, treating everyone with the respect they deserve, Sirio exemplifies this definition.”
