Crudo from Around the World
Long before there were Viking ranges and wood-fired ovens, there was crudo.
The time-honored art of slicing and seasoning raw fish has been practiced in cultures around the globe for millennia, with the first mentions of similar dishes originating in China nearly 3,000 years ago. While the means of creating a perfect crudo may have changed, the principle remains the same: an artful dance between preparer and materials, relying on the delicate balance of flavors to highlight the fish, not mask it. While the Japanese are often credited as the first to popularize raw fish, the practice may have actually originated in China, where kuai, a dish prepared from thinly-sliced raw fish or meat, has been a staple for thousands of years, with the first mentions of the dish originating during the Zhou Dynasty, beginning in 1045 B.C. While Japanese sashimi was thought to have originated around the turn of the last millennium, the first mentions of the dish arrived nearly 1,000 years later, during the Muromachi period in the 11th century. During the same time sashimi was becoming an integral part of Japanese culinary culture, a similar dish, ceviche, was rising to prominence
in Latin America. Ceviche has since become such a staple in Peru that it was honored with a national day of celebration in 2008. More recently, crudo, an Italian take on raw fish, has made its way into the mainstream, with preparations of this flavorful raw fish dish taking off at some of the world’s most famous eateries. As poke and carpaccio have become welcome parts of many American meals and ceviche in Latin America, crudo has similarly seen its profile rise. While the intricacy of preparing raw fish properly can make it seem like a task best left to the pros, Paul Qui believes that, with the right training and tools, a well-prepared crudo can be executed by even an amateur chef. "The art of making a crudo can seem intimidating, but it's actually surprisingly simple,” says Qui. “It's all about understanding the fish and balancing qualities like temperature, acidity and salt.” Flavorful oils, fresh fish, and a little inspiration can turn even the most nervous crudo creators into experts with just a little practice.
ART OF CRUDO CLASS
Join as on August 20th for an Art of Crudo Class with Chef Paul Qui, where guests learn the art of preparing the perfect crudo dishes from around the world including ceviche, sashimi, carpaccio, and more. Cool off with freshly muddled cocktails while Pao’s chefs walk you through ingredient preparations and cooking techniques such as slicing, marinating and curing. The most difficult part of the class? Deciding which dish you like best. In-house guests may dial the Concierge at 4037 for further information. Reservations can also be made at 786 655 5600. AUG

“I LOVE SUSHI” In Japan, there is a culinary tradition of ordering omakase, a word that translates to respectfully leaving another to decide what is best, or in gastronomy terms, a chef’s selection.

How many times have we heard the phrase: “we are all made of stardust.” Maybe the most recurring form of this quote is that of Carl Sagan (Cosmos, 1980), but we can name a vast number of references. Among them, the memorable George Bataille's phrase from Guilty comes to mind: “What am I but a ray from a dead star?,” and another by Neil de Grasse, Sagan's literary heir: “We do not only live among the stars, stars live inside us.” The extraordinary thing is, although there are moments when it is hard to grasp, the undeniable fact is that, yes, we are fundamentally made of stardust. To get ourselves beyond metaphorical assumptions which are, by the way, deeply inspiring, we can understand this idea from the objective point of view: chemical-composition, which permeates all the bodies in the universe. Stars produce light due to the power of fusion in their nuclei. This fusion happens because gravity blends hydrogen balls in the nuclei until the hydrogen atoms react by casting away protons that coalesce with helium atoms. This process continues until the helium becomes the dominant element of a star, which is where “helium” gets its name; it is a word historically associated with the sun. If a star is copious enough it will explode as a supernova, dispersing all of its elements throughout the universe.
All the atoms, as well as the hydrogen are made of these stars -that includes us as well. It should be noted however, that not all elements are made from the fusion in the stars' nuclei; some of the heavier elements are composed from what is known as neutron capture. For example, gold is hard to obtain though the use of fusion, due to the odd number of protons and the heaviness of the element. The process that happens is hence the opposite, a division of the atoms. The iron nuclei that have more neutrons than protons come apart. These neutrons are projected towards the adjacent elements creating neutron deposits in them. When some of these neutrons become protons, golden elements such as lead and uranium are consequently created. The heavy elements are also the product of the alchemy takes takes place in “the Athanor of the stars.” Thus, it is safe to say that if every single atom in the universe had a working memory, they'd remember being part of a star. So, are you ready to embrace the exciting responsibility implied in the fact that we are all star stuff? Top image: from “The Comet Book” (France, 1587)

Intimate Private Events LIVE ENTERTAINMENT AT THE LIVING ROOM & SA XONY BAR THE LIVING ROOM NIGHTLY EVENING ACTS
Rock the Mic!
Unleash your inner rock star at Faena Theater’s karaoke night. This unique karaoke experience pairs guests with Miami’s hottest cover band, Higher Ground, as their back up ensemble for a rollicking evening you won’t soon forget. Whether you’re excited to sing the latest Top 40 hit, can’t wait to test your lyrical skills with a hip-hop track, or are eager to show off your vocal prowess with a classic rock ballad, you’ll instantly feel like a star the second you hit the Faena Theater stage. Presented in partnership with Toys for Boys magazine, this exhilarating event is lightyears away from your average karaoke dive, thanks to Faena’s intimate theater venue and supportive social scene. Evoking Hollywood’s gilded age, the 150-seat Faena Theater feels more like a sexy cabaret than a karaoke bar, infused with vintage charm from its red banquettes to its Art Deco-inspired lighting to the oversized chandelier hanging from the ceiling. Although hitting the stage solo can be an intimidating experience, you’ll have professionals to guide you. Formed in 2006, Higher Ground cut its teeth in venues around Miami, beginning their work as a backing band for live band karaoke nearly seven years ago. While the band usually boasts a seven-person lineup, you may find yourself performing alongside both Higher Ground’s core members and a live brass section,
perfect for punching up those ‘60s soul numbers, or enjoying a more intimate show with a pared down group, ideal for those performances where you really want your vocal range to shine. Fortunately, if you’re feeling those pre-show jitters, Higher Ground’s talented lead singer, Aaron Hudson, can help you out with backing vocals or serve as an accompaniment to your own dulcet tones. Just because your performance is over doesn’t mean the celebration is through; after picking up an edited, multi-angle video of your performance to share on social media, or file away for posterity’s sake, you can head to Faena’s Saxony Bar, an elegant lounge where you can celebrate your 15 minutes of fame with a perfectly-prepared cocktail and good company, keeping the party going well into the wee hours like the rock star that you are. Free and open to the public. RSVP to party@faena.com to choose your song and reserve your spot. For more information, visit www.faena.com or call 786 655 5600. AUG

A live septet band singing you happy birthday in a theater filled with your favorite people. The moment she whispers “yes” in a sea of rose petals and shimmering crystal candelabras.

Hosting a private dinner with friends, just because. Bring us your dreams, and we’ll bring them to life.
Imagine yourself in Faena Miami Beach’s red velvet theater sharing a multi-course feast with friends and family that have traveled from near and far to celebrate your birthday. After dinner, a band appears, and so do the continuous surprises. Suddenly the guests are decked out in Mardi Gras masks and blinking hats, there are stilt walkers and tango dancers, live music fills the room and everyone’s dancing in a whirl of LED lights and red bow ties amidst a flurry of glitter and feathers. Or perhaps you prefer a full moon party with a bonfire on Faena’s private beach under a blanket of stars where your loved ones lounge in a colorful Bedouin tents humming with sound bowls, and dance to live drummers with freshly-muddled cocktails in hand as they celebrate your latest trip around the sun. For a more private fete, Faena’s Duplex Penthouse suite offers a canvas fashioned from Alan Faena and the hands of Hollywood’s golden duo filmmaker Baz Luhrmann and Academy Award-winning production designer Catherine Martin. Infused with an air of The Great Gatsby meets Moulin Rouge!, the penthouse—with its art deco trimmings, glass walls overlooking sweeping ocean views, twofloor terrace, elegant dining room and jet-black grand piano—is the perfect setting for grand affairs and real-life romance to play out.
In La Cava, our 20-seat private dining room, we offer culinary experiences personally designed by our world-famous chefs Francis Mallmann and Paul Qui, or we can arrange a variety of guest chefs to prepare a gastronomic adventure, each cooking a different course of the tasting menu. Whatever flavor pleases your palate, from Cuban to Italian, vegan to kosher, gluten-free to raw, Faena will cater to your discerning taste with mouthwatering cuisine. Bridal parties flock to Faena for the promise of wild nights, world-class entertainment and personalized pampering to celebrate the last days of singlehood. Bachelorettes love the embroidered silk robes with matching flip-flops, private yoga sessions on the beach with coldpressed juices, poolside cabana lounging with bottle service and late-night dance fests in The Living Room, while bachelors revel in custom cigar and rum pairings, authentic Argentine asados (barbecues), beach soccer tournaments, and sipping top-shelf whiskey to Miami’s hottest DJs in Saxony Bar, followed by a housemade hangover cure the next morning. The Faena District Miami Beach, a destination in itself, is a fantasyland of fun for families with our custom multi-day itineraries that keep every age-group entertained. Think beach volleyball and cabana parties, scavenger hunts and catamaran sailings, Sunday brunches and world-class magic shows, spa treatments and movie screenings, and of course, babysitters for the kids so the adults can enjoy carefree nights that rival the good ol’ days. When you trust us to handle the details, you won’t miss a single moment of making memories with the ones you love most. For reservations, dial 305 535 4697 or email reservations-miamibeach@faena.com

The secrets of Plasma Rich Fibrinogen. What is my secret to a pore-less, glowing, smooth complexion? The second generation of PRF (Plasma Rich Fibrinogen), which is an extract of your own blood that contains platelets, growth factors, and other active proteins which promote healing. It has been used medically for years to accelerate wound healing; repair tendon, ligament and joint damage; heal diabetic ulcers; and help regrow muscle and bone. When PRP/PRF is placed back into the skin by injection or micro-needling, it initiates collagen stimulation, improving the quality of your skin with each treatment. Within a few weeks of treatment, an overall improvement in skin hydration, texture and tone can be seen. PRF will help to reduce fine lines and wrinkles, tighten and tone skin, minimize the appearance of pores giving you an airbrushed look and increase the radiance of your skin. It’s easy to see why this is one of my personal go-to treatments!
Peace is always a choice. No matter where you are in life, nor what's happening around you, you always have the power to choose your response to any given situation. It can be difficult to find the peaceful option, but if you apply the tool of mindfulness in action you will find it. Difficult yoga poses prepare your mind for similar moments in life. By learning to choose a peaceful path in your practice you develop the same skill to choose a peaceful path in in every situation. Every experience is colored by the story the mind tells about it. If you see the world as a violent fluctuation between dramatic highs and devastating lows, you will be blown up and down like a leaf in a storm. The more you draw your attention to the severity of the twists and turns of life the more these intense emotional fluctuations only seem to get worse. What you put your attention on quite often determines what you will experience. In your yoga practice you face tightness, weakness, and impossibility. Yoga asks you to remain equanimous and calm in the face of the struggles of the body. The real yoga is the inner state of a calm mind that is balanced and steady no matter what it faces.
Dr. del Campo receives appointments by referral at Tierra Santa on Tuesdays, from 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. For more information and reservations, email spamiami@faena.com or dial 786 655 5570

Turbulent times can either shake you to the core or make your stronger. Just like some days your yoga practice will feel amazing and other days you will feel like you're made of tin. The difficult days are actually when yoga happens. You learn not to hold on to the high and not to fight against the lows. Yoga is a state of being, and that beingness is characterized by peace. You can start today. Assume any comfortable seated position. Sit for five minutes. Watch your breath. Practice observation without judgement (no good or bad). Train your mind to be at peace. Refrain from reactions and just be. You can change your world by changing your mind.
Classes at Tierra Santa Studio: Wednesdays, Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays. Drop ins welcome. For more information and reservations, please email spamiami@faena.com or call 786 655 5570.
