GRANDE TOUR ARIANA GRANDE STAGES THE ULTIMATE HOMECOMING CELEBRATION: A ONE-NIGHTONLY CONCERT AT MIAMI’S AMERICANAIRLINES ARENA.

Ariana Grande was destined for stardom from a young age—the Boca Raton-born pop sensation was just 8 years old when she made her national television debut singing “The Star-Spangled Banner” at a Florida Panthers hockey game. Flash forward to the 2014

46  OCEANDRIVE.COM

NFL kickoff game, and Grande performed the same song—this time for a reported 26.9 million viewers. As a child, Grande also caught the acting bug and joined the Fort Lauderdale Children’s Theatre, where she starred in a production of Annie. In 2008, while still

in high school, she was cast in the musical 13, which landed her a National Youth Theatre Association Award. Though she left Boca for the bright lights of Broadway, Grande remained enrolled at North Broward Preparatory School and graduated in 2012. But come April 14, the

singer returns to the Sunshine State for the Dangerous Woman Tour, now armed with three certified-platinum albums, four Grammy nominations, and more than 7 billion online views of her music videos. It’s safe to say AmericanAirlines Arena (where she first performed

in 2015 during her debut arena tour) will be packed when she belts out her sexy single “Side to Side.” Grande is, after all, the third-most-followed celebrity on Instagram, surpassing even Beyoncé by 2 million. 601 Biscayne Blvd., Miami, 786-7771000; ticketmaster.com

PLAY BALL! THE MIAMI MARLINS KICK OFF THE 2017–2018 BASEBALL SEASON WITH EXCITING BUZZ BOTH ON AND OFF THE FIELD. BY JARED SHAPIRO

“This is the year” is something every sports fan says about his or her beloved home team at the start of every season. But for the Miami Marlins, the sentence hasn’t really been uttered since 2003, the last year they won the World Series. This year, however, there is a new buzz of optimism, thanks to new faces and old, plus a work ethic in part due to second-year manager Don

48  OCEANDRIVE.COM

Mattingly. Hitting coach Barry Bonds is gone, replaced with Mike Pagliarulo. And as the team and the city continue to mourn the death of star pitcher José Fernández, who lost his life in a boating accident in September, the goal is to continue on towards a bright future. A 79-82 record last year just put them out of the playoffs. Familiar faces

Giancarlo Stanton, Dee Gordon, and Christian Yelich are stronger than ever, while new pitchers Edinson Vólquez (previously with the Royals), Dan Straily (Reds), Brad Ziegler and Junichi Tazawa (Red Sox), and Jeff Locke (Pirates) now will all proudly don Marlins uniforms. The fish will already be six games into the season when they return to Miami

to take on the Atlanta Braves for our home opener on April 11. Three days later, it’s Don Mattingly Bobblehead night on the 14th against the Mets (the first 10,000 fans will win the big-headed doll), and fireworks following the Friday-night game on April 15. Mark June 22 to 25 on your calendars, too, as the Marlins play host to the World Series Champions,

the Chicago Cubs, on a four-day home stretch. But the tickets that everyone wants will be the 2017 All-Star Game as Marlins Stadium hosts a jam-packed, days-long extravaganza from the Home Run Derby to FanFest at the Miami Beach Convention Center, culminating with the July 11 All-Star game for the first time ever in Miami! miami.marlins.mlb.com

Knight Foundation. This year, you won’t be able to walk the streets, go to the beach, or stay at a hotel without reading a sonnet. For the hotels, “I have four Miami poets writing lyrical versions of the ‘Do Not Disturb’ and ‘Please Service the Room’ signs,” says Cunningham. “We wanted to do something fun and very Miami—the opposite of what you would expect from a poetry event.” On the streets, noteworthy poets will unite for a community gathering of bites and ballads at the Miami Beach Bandshell on April 1. Balladry continues through the rest of the month thanks to a variety of celebrations, interactive events, and workshops with the world’s leading poets— from live readings to tips on how to write your own rhymes. On the beach, FIU’s Department of Architecture alumni Juan Gelez and Delia Rivera’s ingenious giant Poetry Roller returns, engraving poems into wet sand so you can literally and figuratively leave your mark on the Magic City. Says Cunningham, “We wanted to be ambitious and pretend as if this is the biggest and most important thing that has ever happened [in Miami].” The O, Miami Poetry Festival takes place April 1–30.

LETTER FROM THE EDITOR-IN-CHIEF

It’s never hard to sustain the momentum of South Florida’s exciting energy. Whatever the month, whatever the season, there’s always something going on. As I scroll through my iPhone pictures, I see a ton of amazing selfies and snaps of everything from the South Beach Wine & Food Festival to the Miami Boat Show, parties with our cover star Charlotte McKinney, a Miami Heat game, lunches at Nobu, dinners at Plant Food + Wine, grand openings, groundbreakings, and a trip to the Pérez Art Museum among my favorites. And that was just February. March took me to the Miami Open tennis tournament, the Ultra Music Festival, the Big Brothers Big Sisters gala, Joel Osteen live from AmericanAirlines Arena, the grand opening of the Four Seasons Surf Club, and of course the never-ending ocean horizons and sunrises and sunsets (insert palm tree in the foreground). You’d think that in April I would finally have time to head back to the beach on a weekend day (or lunch break—shh… don’t tell!) or check out

some brand-new restaurants that just opened, like Estefan Kitchen and Hank and Harry’s. Fingers crossed I can. But I’m also looking at a jam-packed calendar. The Miami Marlins season opener, a celebration with our current cover star, Joe Manganiello, the Tortuga Music Festival, Red Hot Chili Peppers in concert, and more are all a prelude to a summer brimming with amazing concerts and events down here. The reality is we get the best of both worlds in this town where we all brag on social media, “We live where you vacation.” Because, full calendar or not, I can always just delete everything on my schedule and literally spend the day staring at the ocean, which, even with all of the aforementioned talent and excitement, is still the best bang for your buck—$15 margarita or rosé not included. #Miami

in hand to get the latest on our cover star: actor, author, and activist Joe Manganiello. When he’s not starring in major films like Magic Mike or this month’s Smurfs: The Lost Village, he’s dedicating his time to a variety of nonprofits and enjoying married life with the irresistible and hilarious Modern Family star Sofia Vergara. We’re honored to be able to share his story with you this month. So whether you nosh on hot dogs at the ballpark, dance all day and into the night to top country tunes, or lounge by the beach, I hope you take a few days (maybe even the entire month) to explore our marvelous city. I know I certainly will. I hope to see you around town…

Another March, another Winter Music Conference, Ultra, and Miami Open for the books. And while we’ve said sayonara to the accompanying megastars (we’ll see you next year, Roger Federer and Carl Cox), don’t close up your calendars just yet, because the Magic City is about to get even hotter. That’s because some of the biggest names in country music are making their way to the sands of Fort Lauderdale for the fifth annual Tortuga Music Festival. From April 7 to 9, you’ll be serenaded by chart-topping country crooners like Luke Bryan, Kenny Chesney, Chris Stapleton, and so many more. Talk about fun in the sun. And for all the baseball fans out there, be sure to get your tickets to witness our Miami Marlins take on the Atlanta Braves in the home opener on April 11. If kicking back and relaxing is more your thing, there’s no better way to unwind (and celebrate Earth Month) than on the sands of our beautiful beaches, which attract people from across the globe. And while you’re lounging by the water, make sure you have a copy of this issue (and perhaps a cocktail)

JOHN RUSSO John Russo is one of the world’s top celebrity photogra­ phers, having shot the likes of George Clooney, Leonardo DiCaprio, Angelina Jolie, and many others. His work has been featured on the covers of Vogue, Elle, and GQ. He is also the author of About Face, a collection of Type 55 portraits of today’s most recognizable male actors. See his work in this issue’s cover story, “The Shirt on His Back,” featuring actor Joe Manganiello. What do you enjoy most about celebrity photography? Creating iconic images that have social immortality. Who are you dying to photograph, and where would you shoot? I’m just finishing up a charity book called 100 Making a Difference that features 100 people who are making a difference in the world. I think taking a trip to Maui to photograph Oprah on her property would be an amazing way to end the book.

ROBYN A. FRIEDMAN

JEFF CRAWFORD

JON WARECH

Writer Robyn A. Friedman has been covering the real estate and housing industries for more than two decades. She has written for The Wall Street Journal, New York Post, and realtor.com, among other outlets. In this issue, Friedman explores a modern mansion in Coconut Grove and previews Fort Lauderdale’s most anticipated new devel­ opments. A South Florida home isn’t complete without… Air­conditioning. For sure. Favorite South Florida neighborhood? I love Fort Lauderdale. I’ve lived in Boca Raton for 22 years, and now that I’m an empty­nester, I’m looking into moving there. Fort Lauderdale has come a long way since I moved to Florida. It has fine restaurants, world­class performing arts, and great shopping. City residents are warm and friendly. And my trips to Miami will be shorter!

This issue’s accessories and fashion features were shot by advertising and editorial photographer Jeff Crawford. A specialist in luxury photography, Crawford is a staff photographer for GreenGale Publishing, whose work has appeared in Gotham, Philadelphia Style, Vegas, and other publications in addition to Ocean Drive. What do you love about your visits to Miami? It’s glamorous, relaxed, warm, and friendly. It reminds me of how Las Vegas used to be back when service was the most important thing. The art scene in Miami is so fresh and inspiring, free from constraint. I always come away recharged and try to bring that easy­going attitude to my work. What is your dream photo shoot? I’m fortunate to work in the world of luxury and lifestyle, but what I’d really like to photograph next time I’m in Miami are some alligators in the studio.

Miami­based writer Jon Warech has covered entertainment and pop culture for Us Weekly and AOL’s mandatory.com. His work has also appeared in the New York Daily News, Vibe, the Miami Herald, and ESPN the Magazine, among others. Recently, Warech coauthored Slam-Dunk Success with Byron Scott and Charles Norris, out this month. In “Center of the Universe” (page 146), Warech reveals how Miami became a global destination, and why it will continue to grow. Your must-try Miami restaurants right now? Upland is definitely my favorite new restaurant, and Naiyara is an old favorite. Both have great food and a fun scene. An underrated favorite of mine is K Ramen. Burger. Beer. at Townhouse. It’s a cool spot. Best place to people-watch? Wynwood Walls and South Pointe Park are two spots where you can sit and see all sorts of people walk by and maybe learn a new language or two.

COMING UP ROSES ROSE-GOLD TIMEPIECES FOR HIM ARE BLOSSOMING IN THE LUXURY WATCH WORLD. BY ALDOUS TUCK

The popularity of rose gold for men’s watches has grown quickly, bringing a breath of spring to the finest designs in the luxury market. Though this gold alloy can be traced back hundreds of years, its richness and depth still catch the attention of today’s trendsetting Miami men. Now a number of watchmakers are offering proprietary shades of rose, pink, or red gold that turn their timepieces into must-have collectibles. The blush hue gives these watches a vintage look that makes them an elegant choice— both timeless and on trend. For more watch features and expanded coverage, go to oceandrive.com/watchesand-jewelry. FROM TOP: TOP: Brand-new for spring, Cartier Cartier’ss Drive de Cartier Extra-Flat watch ($15,600) represents the next generation in the stunning Drive de Cartier collection, unveiled last year. Fashioned from 18k rose gold, this sleek timepiece boasts an innovative cushion design that’s both sporty and dressy while measuring a mere 6.6 mm thick. The ultrathin, handwound automatic movement, calibre 430 MC, is manufactured in-house and provides a 36-hour power reserve. Tourneau Bal Harbour, 9700 Collins Ave., 305-866-4312; cartier.com

The Patek Philippe Ref. 5711/1R Nautilus ($51,030) offers understated style with its rose-gold case and light/dark brown gradated dial, featuring an inset date indicator, a sweeping second hand, and gold applied luminescent hour markers. The calibre 324 SC, a mechanical self-winding movement, provides up to 45 hours of power reserve. This oh-so-dapper timepiece is sturdy, too, with water resistance to 120 meters for Miami beach lovers. Kirk Jewelers, 142 E. Flagler St., Miami, 305-371-1321; patek.com

Rolex blends its patented 18k pink gold with the classic Daytona design to create the Cosmograph Daytona in Everose gold ($37,450). This world-class watch allows a driver to measure average speeds of up to 400 mph while bringing a sophisticated style statement along for the ride. The calibre 4130, a self-winding mechanical chronograph movement manufactured by Rolex, powers this prodigious timepiece. Kirk Jewelers, 142 E. Flagler St., Miami, 305-371-1321; rolex.com

ROCKING THE PLANET HOW DO YOU DRESS LIKE A ROCK STAR IN MIAMI? WITH LEGENDARY MEXICAN ROCK BAND MANÁ’S ETHICALLY MADE, BENEVOLENT APPAREL LINE, RITOS DEL SOL. BY CARLA TORRES

above, from left: Threads for turtles: Tortoises are a favorite motif, seen here on the ecofriendly line’s paint-brushed black Turtle T-shirt; men’s destroyed and repaired jeans have a turtle design on the rolled-up cuffs.

Peace, love, and rock ’n’ roll are what Maná is all about. So it’s fitting that the four-time Grammy and eight-time Latin Grammy Award-winning band would create a T-shirt and denim line—Ritos del Sol—that’s not only edgy enough to appeal to rockers, but sustainable and charitable, too. Drummer Alex Gonzalez and frontman Fher Olvera

(both of whom are parttime Miami residents) talk about their thoughtful threads, making a fashion statement, and how you can save sea turtles, one pair of jeans at a time. Your first hit single was called “Rayando el Sol” and your clothing line is called Ritos del Sol. What’s the connection? Fher Olvera: The sun is

our god. Without the energy, the light of the sun, life on our planet is not possible. Alex Gonzalez: We wanted to make a line that was casual and cool, and that represented us and our [Mexican] culture while being accessible in price. The designs have to do with the sun, the moon, things you’d find in the rainforest, and the Day of

the Dead—which is very celebrated in Mexico. Turtles are a big focus and sketched on all the jeans. AG: We’ve been protecting sea turtles and have released over a million of them to the ocean since we started our environmental organization, Selva Negra, in 1996. FO: I grew up by the ocean, so I love turtles.

We have camps where we protect their environment, and if you buy a shirt or jeans, you get good fit, quality, and you’re helping turtles in the camps and doing something for our planet. How are the pieces made? AG: It’s completely ethical—the materials, the dyes. It’s very important employees have a good salary, that the conditions are good, and everything is made in Mexico. FO: One of the important things was finding an environmentally friendly factory that uses recycled materials, and fortunately we found that factory in Puebla. The jeans are fit for a rock star. FO: The fabric is elastic, so it’s comfortable for the car, the plane, playing and drinking and jumping onstage for two hours, or whatever else you’re doing. You don’t feel tight. Favorite pieces? AG: Black is my favorite color, so I like all the darker items— especially the skulls. FO: I jump around onstage a lot with the skull and the falcon. Right now, I’m wearing the big turtle to go to Cancun. What statement are you hoping to make? AG: We’ve never had a stylist tell us what to wear. This wasn’t forced upon us. We wanted to do it because we have the opportunity and platform to be onstage and put out a positive message. It doesn’t matter if you are rich, poor, black, white, Latino, gay, straight, whatever. We all have to take care of this world because we are all a part of it. FO: Mexico and the United States are neighbors, and you should never be mean to your neighbor. Fashion is political and environmental; these issues aren’t separate. Global warming is not a joke. Twenty years of science and scientific research prove it is happening, and one of the most affected places is Miami. ritosdelsol.com; selvanegra.com

A Fort Lauderdale native (and fourth runner-up in the 2014 Miss USA pageant), Brittany Oldehoff has been modeling since she was 10 years old and has walked runways for Michael Kors, Zac Posen, and Oscar de la Renta.

If you weren’t a model… I’d be doing something in law enforcement. I studied criminal justice at Florida Atlantic University. Favorite shoot to date? GQ South Africa. [The photographer] had me do all of these crazy poses, and I thought to myself, There is no way this is going to look good! But when [the magazine] came out, it was flawless. You competed in the 2014 Miss Florida USA pageant. What’s the difference between modeling and pageants? The pageant world is very glamorous. It’s hard for me to adapt to that because I am somebody who loves to wear sweats and no makeup. Fitness routine? I lift weights. For me and my body type, it just works better to build muscle. Cheat meal? I’m a girl who likes burgers. If I just want to eat something to feel good, full, and happy, Shake Shack is the way to go! Favorite place for a night out? LIV. The music is always really good and there’s [a lot of] space to dance. Favorite Miami hangout? Crandon Park in Key Biscayne. It’s such a quiet, gorgeous beach. I also work there a lot. Advice to aspiring models? Show your personality and that you’re a human and not just a coatrack for clothes. @brittanyoldehoff

The heart of country music will once again beat on the sands of South Florida as some of the genre’s biggest stars perform here this month, all in the name of marine conservation. The three-day, multistage Tortuga Music Festival—which last year drew almost 100,000 fans—is a lively oceanside country and roots music bash. A Southern-style celebration of tunes, brews, and local bites, the festival raises awareness of issues affecting the world’s oceans through an interactive Conservation Village, with a portion of ticket proceeds benefiting ocean research and preservation. And this year’s event introduces The Reef, a daily ticket upgrade that guarantees you a spot right in front of the main stage. Here’s the breakdown:

Riding a wave of support from our ocean-loving community, the Tortuga Music Festival returns to raise funds for global and local conservation groups, including South Florida’s Sea Turtle Oversight Protection and the Reef Environmental Education Foundation.

What: A music festival to benefit the planet—threequarters of it, anyway—produced by Huka Entertainment. “Word has spread, both in the artist community and with fans worldwide, that our vibe and community make for country music’s ultimate beach party,” says Evan Harrison, the company’s CEO.

ARTISTIC SPIRIT MIAMI-BASED JOSE MERTZ’S WHIMSICAL WORKS ARE TAKING OVER THE 305. BY KATIE JACKSON

Water dragons. Lucky tigers. Centaurs. These are just a few of the mythical creatures—and intricately detailed works by Magic City-based artist Jose Mertz—you’ll come across strolling through the colorful streets of Wynwood. His creations (everything from larger-than-life murals and installations to graphic T-shirts and stickers) both captivate and inspire viewers as they blur the lines between fantasy, reality, and spirituality. Like many artists before him, Mertz’s desire to create started in early childhood. “I was 5 years old when I knew I really liked drawing and wanted to keep doing it,” he says. As he grew older, he expanded his exploration into music, papier-mâché, collage, and cutting and pasting. “I even put chocolate syrup on a sketchbook.” Eventually, the novice creator went from experimenting with melted confections to honing his craft at prestigious institutions, including Miami’s New World School of the Arts for high school, before moving to Baltimore to study at the Maryland Institute College of Art. “I liked the fact that MICA romanticized the art of painting,” he says. But it was during a semester studying abroad in New York City that Mertz discovered Zen Buddhism, a practice he says has profoundly impacted him both personally and

professionally. “I met Stan Kholer, a Zen teacher. He inspired me to come back to New York after graduation and study the internal arts.” Mertz returned to the Big Apple to learn “the spiritual side of things” and inevitably discovered meditation, a practice he now lives and breathes, and works in, too. “When I paint and draw I’m in a meditative state, but I’m still using brain power,” he explains. “The idea is to stop thinking. Not even a thought of a thought.” Nowadays, Mertz does his no-thinking yet thoughtful painting in Miami, where his thriving hand and mind have landed him collaborations with major apparel brands like Adidas, Victoria’s Secret, and Old Navy. He’s also participated in nonprofit projects with Re-imagining the Arts in Wynwood (RAW) and opened a new gallery dubbed Studio Invcbl in the latest extension of the Arts District, Allapattah. “They call [the area] the West of Wynwood,” he says. Though well established and in demand, Mertz attributes much of his success to mastering the art of meditation and remaining focused on his original goal: to pursue his passion and inspire and connect with others along the way. “If I can make somebody feel something, anything, just for a second, I’ve done my job.” @josemertz

HIGHER GROUND RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS HEAT UP AMERICANAIRLINES ARENA FOR THE FIRST TIME WITH A SOLD-OUT, ONENIGHT-ONLY CONCERT.

With over 80 million records sold, six Grammy Awards, and a spot in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, one might not expect the Red Hot Chili Peppers to suddenly start singing a different tune. But after more than three decades of success, the band has done just that with its latest album, The Getaway, which lucky Miamians will hear live when the Chili Peppers play at AmericanAirlines Arena for the very first time on April 29. Released last June, the 13-track studio album was produced by Brian “Danger Mouse” Burton, who introduced a new creative process involving writing together in the studio and playing to a click track, according to an Entertainment Weekly interview with lead singer Anthony Kiedis. The new approach worked, with the album debuting at number two on the Billboard 200 and number one on Billboard’s Top Rock Albums chart, while the first single, “Dark Necessities,” became the band’s 13th number-one on the Alternative Songs chart. Still, there’s nothing like hearing Kiedis kill it onstage. Along with other new tracks, like “Sick Love” (featuring Elton John on the keys), there’s no doubt you’ll hear classics like “Scar Tissue” and “Californication” when the Chili Peppers take the Magic City. Miami just got a whole lot hotter. 601 Biscayne Blvd., Miami, 786777-1000; aaarena.com

EAT, SIP, BREATHE, REPEAT THE LAS OLAS WINE & FOOD FESTIVAL KICKS OFF THIS MONTH TO BENEFIT THE AMERICAN LUNG ASSOCIATION.

The only thing better than a festival of food, wine, and revelry is one that also supports a worthy cause. And for over two decades, Fort Lauderdale’s Las Olas Wine & Food Festival has done just that, with ticket proceeds benefiting the American Lung Association in its goal to improve lung health. Now in its 22nd year, the celebration showcases South Florida’s finest eateries and international wineries, with live music, mixology demos, and interactive retail displays. “Not only does this festival support the American Lung Association, it supports the fine merchants on Las Olas Boulevard and provides national exposure for our beautiful venue,” says Vann Padgett of The Las Olas Company, a longtime supporter of the event. “It continues to grow and attract the very best.” On April 21, from 7:30 to 10:30 PM, five enclosed blocks will be flooded with guests who will savor samples from 70 restaurants and more than 45 wineries, spirit brands, and breweries.

RUN, RAVEN, RUN AFTER LOGGING MORE THAN 125,000 MILES ON MIAMI BEACH OVER THE COURSE OF 15,092 DAYS, LEGENDARY BEACH RUNNER RAVEN IS IMMORTALIZED IN A NEW BOOK. BY JARED SHAPIRO

Who is Raven? “He’s a 66-year-old retired security guard who encourages other people to keep the parts about them that are unique. He values people who are themselves. He is 100 percent committed to himself and his word. He was a loner, but he hasn’t run by himself in 11 years.” How fast does he run? “Fourteenminute miles these days, so it’s about a two-hour run. In the 1970s, he did seven-minute miles.” How does he cover expenses? “Recently two runners started a foundation for him. His living expenses are low. He really hasn’t left Miami Beach in over 40 years, doesn’t have a car or driver’s license.” How healthy is he? “Inside, he is extremely healthy. He has a pretty rigid dietary structure, with lots of fruits and veggies. Doesn’t eat out at all. And no alcohol or smoking. But eight miles every day for 42 years has externally caused him spinal

In the winter it’s 4:30 pm, and 5:30 pm in summer.” Who would play Raven in a film adaptation? “Jared Leto, who played [Steve] Prefontaine. Or Tom Hanks, because of Forrest Gump.” Running with Raven will be available on amazon.com and kensingtonbooks.com on April 27.

In 1975, Robert “Raven” Kraft—a high-school dropout and aspiring songwriter down on his luck after a singer stole one of his songs—was approached by two boxers on Miami Beach. They saw his disheveled appearance and suggested he run with them to feel better. And ever since then, whether in 103-degree heat or 86-mile-per-hour hurricane winds, Raven hasn’t missed a day. Along the way, 2,536 people (and counting) have joined him on his daily eight-mile beach jog. Laura Lee Huttenbach, author of the new book Running with Raven, shares his story:

CLEAN CONSCIENCE THE MAGIC CITY’S FIRST ON-DEMAND WATERLESS CAR WASH SERVICE, WASHMYWHIP, IS AS GOOD FOR THE PLANET AS IT IS FOR MIAMIANS’ ON-THE-GO LIFESTYLE. BY CARLA TORRES

The only thing worse than spending a beautiful 70-degree Miami day at the car wash is having a filthy (and sandy) automobile. Enter WashMyWhip, the first eco-friendly car washing and detailing service in the 305 that comes directly to you, so you can beat traffic, save time, and

protect the environment. The idea of two former J.P. Morgan investment specialists turned entrepreneurs, Tarek El Gammal and Nathan Bekerman— who set out to create a business model as lucrative as it was green— WashMyWhip sets itself apart with a waterless

detailing solution that took a year of research, development, and “testing, testing, and more testing” to perfect, says El Gammal. So what’s in this magical spotless potion? “It’s kind of like our secret sauce: a mix of hyperlubricants that raise and break down dirt,” he explains. The most

important thing to note is that after you order the service through the company’s app, a WashPro shows up with nothing but a backpack and uses less than a cup of H2O to get your vehicle sparkling. “Each wash saves 50 to 100 gallons of water.” With the future of car

care in Miami shining bright, WashMyWhip has also partnered with Uber to become the car-cleaning provider of choice in the Southeast US, with a presence in Atlanta, Philadelphia, Houston, Dallas, and Tennessee as well. No more ridin’ dirty. washmywhip.com

LIVING IS EASY GROVE BAY HOSPITALITY JOINS FORCES WITH GOLF ICON ERNIE ELS TO BRING SOUTH AFRICAN CUISINE AND THE BIG EASY TO BRICKELL CITY CENTRE.

PHOTOGRAPHY BY GARY JAMES

BY CARLA TORRES

South African pro golfer Ernie Els is easy to love—hence his nickname “The Big Easy”—due to his imposing physical stature and fluid swing. So when the former world number oneturned-winemaker-turnedrestaurateur launched his first wine bar and grill, The Big Easy was a natural moniker choice, especially given that it, too, is easy to love. After all, what is there to dislike about pork belly popsicles doused in South African mango braai (barbecue) sauce and jalapeño jam “cowboy candy,” fried green tomatoes crowned with tomato chutney and fried morsels of more pork belly and bacon jam, or a four-hour-braised lamb shank served in a bread bowl? “That dish has rich history dating back to the 1960s, when Bunny Chow [a South African street rice bowl commonly made with beans and chicken] was the standard blue-collar lunch for South Africans,” says Executive Chef Maryna Frederiksen, reflecting on her own heritage. “We have elevated the bowl with a lamb shank and bread. A lot of love and work goes into it.” Prior to landing in the kitchen at The Big Easy—which boasts two locations in South Africa, one in Dubai, and the newly opened spot in Miami, with

Chef’s selection: Peri-peri chicken with duck-fatroasted fingerling potatoes at The Big Easy.

The dining room is at once casual and cosmopolitan, reflecting The Big Easy’s worldly menu.

“SOUTH AFRICA IS THE TEXAS OF AFRICA. THEY LIKE TO SHOOT THINGS, BARBECUE, AND DRINK A LOT OF WINE.” —maryna frederiksen South African-born Executive Chef Maryna Frederiksen cooks the food she grew up eating, incorporating Indian, Malaysian, European, and Nuevo Latino flavors. right: The Big Easy Burger with onion jam, braai “barbecue” sauce, and hand-cut fries.

another soon to come in Malaysia— Frederiksen honed her culinary skills all across the globe, from Switzerland to San Francisco to South Africa and even Walt Disney World. But the chef feels most at home when she’s cooking the food she grew up eating, giving it her own unique and flavorful spin. Think an amalgamation of Malaysian, Indian, and European cultures with a dash of Nuevo Latino peppered in. This being The Big Easy’s debut in the Western Hemisphere, Grove Bay Hospitality (the group behind Glass & Vine and Stiltsville Fish Bar), Ernie Els, and chef Frederiksen wanted to make the menu appropriate for Miami. What better than chili-coffee-rubbed pork flatbread topped with seasonal apples? “South Africa is the Texas of Africa. They like to shoot things, barbecue, and drink a lot of wine,” Frederiksen laughs. But it’s not all barbecue and wine— though the grill offers plenty of cuts, from prime dry-aged Kansas City strip and bison rib eye to the mother of all steaks, a 40-ounce dry-aged tomahawk chop, while an extensive wine list features multi-award-winning blends from Els’s own vineyard. There’s also a bounty of seafood: African spice-crusted corvina served over risotto verde; grilled Nigerian prawns doused in garlic butter and peri-peri chili sauce; and a Cape Malay seafood pot chockful of PEI mussels, prawns, and the day’s fresh catch swimming in a piquant coconut curry broth. Sides, too, abound and are not to be forgotten, like Brussels sprouts with bacon marmalade and roasted cauliflower with tahini and sumac. But go easy on the savory fare, as you’ll want to go hard on dessert. And by dessert, we mean all the desserts: Who can resist Nutella and salted caramel bread pudding, a Cape-Dutch version of a tres leches cake, malva pudding with Amarula crème anglaise, or a Kahlua, whiskey, and vanilla ice cream milkshake? Living is easy with boozy ice cream milkshakes. Brickell City Centre, 701 S. Miami Ave., Miami, 786-814-5955; bigeasymiami.com

and has been COO of the house for 15. “Very few brands, very few houses, have been able to sustain 300 years of exposure,” he says. Indeed, it seems hard to imagine how a wine merchant founded in France in 1725 could still be relevant— and thriving—in over 130 countries around the world today. But with an endorsement from none other than Thomas Jefferson, who, after a visit to Bordeaux in 1787, included Barton & Guestier in a list of

“vintage wines of the finest quality,” it’s evident that these bottles are special. The secret? A wine-making process that has remained relatively unchanged. “The quality of the wine comes from investment in the quality of the barrels, the grapes, the terroir… and attention to detail when you bottle [it],” says Surville. Fast forward and jet to present-day Miami, and the brand is popping up in upscale wine shops and

restaurants, like the chic Paris 6 (2200 Collins Ave., Miami Beach, 305-3636806; paris6.com.br), all across the city. Because contrary to popular belief, Miamians aren’t just sipping sugarsoaked, umbrellagarnished cocktails. “Florida is the second state in terms of consumption of wine in the US, just after California,” says Surville. “It shows the attention in Miami Beach for health-conscious lifestyles.” bartonguestier.com

IN GOOD TASTE FROM AN UNDERGROUND JAZZ JOINT AND NYC SPEAKEASY TO MAINE LOBSTER AND NATIONALLY ACCLAIMED SUSHI WASHING UP ON OUR SHORES, HERE ARE THE GREATEST CULINARY AND BOOZY HAPPENINGS IN MIAMI. BY CARLA TORRES

clockwise from top far left: Assorted dishes at Cake Thai; the bar scene at Floyd; Floyd’s mint julep; outside Jack’s; a psychic sign leads the way to Employees Only, perfect for intimate post-dinner drinks or late-night bites (bottom far left).

For Fried Chicken and Fish: BLUE RIBBON

For All that Jazz (and Cocktails!): FLOYD

Good news: You no longer have to plan culinary getaways to New York City to satisfy your craving for Blue Ribbon’s oxtail fried rice and melt-inyour-mouth raw fish. That’s because you can now get your fix of fried chicken steeped in wasabi honey and sushi on sushi on sushi right on the sands of South Beach. 336 21st St., Miami Beach, 305-800-0404; blueribbonrestaurants.com

The last place you’d expect to find late-night jazz, craft cocktails, and a sultry vibe is a clandestine watering hole adjacent to prime afterhours discotheque Space, but that’s exactly part of Floyd’s charm. Other reasons to visit are the classic and revamped cocktails (sip on a Manhattan or thyme daiquiri) and unexpected musical programming from the team of nightlife and hospitality veterans behind Link, Miami Rebels, III Points, and Life in Color. 34 NE 11th St., Miami, 786-618-9447

For Upgraded Thai: CAKE THAI

Once upon a time, you had to bring your own beer to Cake Thai, use the restroom next door, and eat your tom kha soup outside (on the sidewalk) because of the lack of A/C. Such is no longer the case at its new outpost in Wynwood, where you can have green papaya salad, tamarind prawn pad Thai, Japanese eggplant doused in miso and chili, and a fried whole catch of the day that will feed the entire table. Plus, they’re pouring beer, cider, wine, and sake (so you can leave yours at home). 180 NW 29th St., Miami, 305-573-5082; cakethaikitchen.com

For Serious Drinkers: EMPLOYEES ONLY

For post-dinner drinks and 2 am munchies, make your way to famed New York speakeasy Employees Only—look out for the neon psychic sign—and knock back their classic Lazy Lover (cachaça, jalapeño-infused green chartreuse, lime, and agave Benedictine). Also: bone marrow poppers, hand-cut steak tartare, and bacon-wrapped lamb chops. The proper term here is trifecta. 1030 Washington Ave., Miami Beach, 786264-3945; employeesonlymiami.com

For Lobster Dinner: LUKE’S LOBSTER

With Joe’s Takeaway closing its doors next month, you’re going to need a suitable lobster roll to get you through October. Enter Maine transplant Luke’s Lobster, bringing its sustainable lobster, crab, and shrimp rolls—each one packing a quarter pound of seafood atop an impeccably buttered, griddled New England bun—to Brickell City Centre. Pro tip: New England clam chowder makes a mean lobster sidekick. 701 S. Miami Ave., Miami, 786-837-7683; lukeslobster.com For Italian Family Supper: JACK’S MIAMI

Nothing says Italian quite like homecooked spaghetti and Nonna’s (that’s Italian for “Grandma’s”) meatballs in secret gravy sauce—except maybe a glass of nice red wine and freshly baked garlic bread for sopping measure. Get it all and then some (chicken Parmesan, braised short ribs, meat loaf, rosemary roasted potatoes) at Jack’s. 2426 NE Second Ave., Miami, 305-640-5507; jacksmiami.com

BLONDE AMBITION BAYWATCH SENSATION CHARLOTTE MC INNEY JETTED TO THE MAGIC CITY TO CELEBRATE HER FIRST OCEAN DRIVE COVER AND SPLASH AROUND OUR SHORES. BY SHELLIE FRAI

PHOTOGRAPHY BY WORLD RED EYE

Two years ago, the world turned upside down when 114 million people witnessed blonde bombshell Charlotte McKinney take a bite out of a Carl’s Jr. all-natural double cheeseburger while strutting down the street, in what was undoubtedly the steamiest Super Bowl commercial of the year. Fast-forward to today and nothing has really changed; McKinney continues to steal the show (and turn heads) everywhere she goes. Case in point: All eyes were on the blue-eyed beauty as she arrived at Byblos Miami to revel in the unveiling of her gorgeous Ocean Drive February issue cover.

Model Charlotte McKinney stunned in a sultry all-black Guess crop top and midi skirt while celebrating her Ocean Drive cover at Byblos Miami.

The model and Florida native stunned on the red carpet in head-to-toe Guess (you can see her in the retailer’s Spring 2017 underwear campaign alongside heartthrob Joe Jonas), donning a sexy black crop top and sleek lace-up midi skirt, before stepping inside the South Beach lounge. When asked how it felt to return to the 305 (the city where she launched her thriving career), the model couldn’t stop gushing. “I love the warm weather, the beach, and, obviously, the nightlife!” said McKinney. Come May, you can catch her splashing around our shores (and saving lives) in a red-hot one-piece when Baywatch, which was filmed right on our world-famous beaches, makes a comeback and hits theaters worldwide.

THE SHIRT ON HIS BACK Lauded as one of the sexiest men on the planet,

actor Joe Manganiello returns to the screen

with a new role that highlights his best feature: pure talent. by JARED SHAPIRO photography by JOHN RUSSO

“WHAT ARE YOU WEARING?” It’s the question that celebrities probably loathe more than any on the red carpet—the triviality of naming the brands they’re sporting as they enter a party or premiere. But no one loves that question more than Joe Manganiello, I would suspect. He’s just happy to be wearing anything. After almost two decades in Hollywood—and despite the fact that he is a classically trained actor from Carnegie Mellon with many years’ worth of theater experience under his belt, as well as an author, philanthropist, and avowed bookworm—what Manganiello is most recognized for are pecs and abs. Shirtless—that’s how Hollywood has always categorized him: sweaty and barechested in blockbusters like Magic Mike, aggressive and dangerous in five seasons on True Blood. Even his latest role, voicing Hefty in the animated film Smurfs: The Lost Village, comes shirtless (though in Manganiello’s defense, Smurfs typically don’t wear shirts). But that’s a thing of the past. In upcoming roles in the highly anticipated The Batman (as the villain Deathstroke, opposite Ben Affleck), his own inde-

pendently produced Stano, and Rampage (in which he stars with Dwayne Johnson), Manganiello is fully clothed, showing his acting chops only. He’s also fully clothed on our cover, as he returns to South Florida, where he wed his wife, actress Sofia Vergara, at the Breakers Palm Beach.

You just turned 40. How does that feel? It’s great! Forty is like the new 25. I feel better physically than I did in my 30s and definitely in my 20s. I’m not prone to make the same mistakes that I made in my 20s. I’m a little smarter and definitely have more money in the bank. Getting older has its benefits. How do you maintain your physique and health? Probably right around True Blood and Magic Mike—that chapter of my career where I had a lot of these physical roles—was a great excuse for me to see how healthy I could get. And what a difference it made. Heading into my 40s, I really thought, I’m going to be 40 in a couple of years; I

“That chapter of my career where I had a lot of these physical roles was a great excuse for me to see how healthy I could get. And what a difference it made.”

should make sure that these years are healthy and I’m pushing as hard as I can. Because, for example, the trainer that I’ve had for the past seven or eight years [Ron Mathews] became the world’s fittest man over 45, and so I looked at him as a model for me. How ripped were you before Magic Mike and True Blood? I’ve worked in film and television since I got out of school, starting with Spider-Man [2002], and built for that. What dictated my getting into the kind of shape I was in for True Blood and Magic Mike was recognizing that it’s work. If you’re going to play a character that’s described in the novel as being built [as in True Blood], then you’re kind of lazy if you don’t do that. And in Magic Mike, if you don’t look like you’re in the best shape of your life, what are you really doing? Do you want to be an actor? Do you want to be successful? Do you want to make money? Do you want to have a career? The Spider-Man role as Flash Thompson happened pretty fast. I screen-tested for Spider-Man the week that I got out of Carnegie Mellon. It was very quick. I was a 40-year-old man trapped in a 23-year-old’s body at that time. Did you worry about making it in Hollywood? Totally. Hollywood’s a really tough business. Even when it seems easy—like for example, Spider-Man. I met Sam Raimi [the director] and immediately screen-tested. That was in June. They didn’t call me back until November to say that I got the part. Everyone [in Hollywood] knew I was shooting the movie: It was this unbelievable couple of weeks for me, and everyone was throwing parties and I was invited to everything. And then two weeks later, my roommate came home and said that her friend auditioned for my role. I called my agent, and as it turns out, the old head of Sony didn’t think I was right for the part. Because I wasn’t blond-haired like the character was in the comic books. And they started, unbeknownst to me, seeing other people. And that went on for a month and a half, and it almost broke me. Then on Christmas Eve, my agent called and said, “Congratulations! They didn’t find anyone else. You got the role back.” And I just gave an

unenthusiastic “Great.” That was my first job, and with it came a really tough meal to digest, which was the fact that Hollywood gives you [a role] and they can just take it right back. Under the surface was this unbelievable disappointment that the rest of the public doesn’t see. They don’t understand that I went through the worst roller-coaster ride of my entire life. Did you worry after Magic Mike about being typecast? I remember when I got the first script for Magic Mike, I was working with Chris Rock and I kind of put my head in my hands, and Chris said, “What’s up?” I told him, “I got this script to read, this offer, this movie. It’s about male strippers.” And he kind of made a face like “Mmm” and said, “Well, who’s directing it?” I told him it was Steven Soderbergh, and he said, “You’ve gotta do that movie.” My response was: “I know, but I have my shirt off a lot on True Blood, and now I’ll have my shirt off in this movie. I’m worried that people aren’t going to be able to see past that and actually look at the work.” And he said, “Look, man, Brad Pitt had his shirt off for 15 years; he’s doing just fine.” Look, True Blood was my big break, but when you do A Streetcar Named Desire at Yale [Repertory Theatre] and the first half of the review talks about your physique, it’s like, Jesus Christ, you know I can act, right? Does it frustrate you that the media seems to always focus on that? It is what it is. I think the vast majority of writers ask me questions about the work, but they don’t care about the work. It’s the physique questions or the relationship questions that wind up becoming the clickbait that kind of covers up the project that I’m in. Speaking of which, it must have been nice to get a call for a movie where they don’t care about your physique. It’s the Smurfs! It’s a cute movie about little blue people who go on adventures. It’s going to be fun. But once again the press is like, “So your Smurf has his shirt off?” Every Smurf has his shirt off—they all do! If they asked you to do another Magic Mike… I’ll do it in, like, 20 years, when we’re all in an old-age home. I hope I’m in that kind of shape in 20 years! Fingers crossed.

“Hollywood gives you [a role] and they can just take it right back. Under the surface was this unbelievable disappointment the rest of the public doesn’t see.”

I’ve spent about a year and a half saying no to all that stuff, and I literally said no to everything that came my way. It’s not interesting to me. If it’s funny, I’ll do it. But I can’t even tell you how many superhero or supervillain roles along the way were not right for me. You know, because I didn’t want to cash my chips in. I wanted to get the one that was the right one, that had the right legs, that was going to be directed or written by the right person. That was going to tell a great story. I finally wound up with something that I thought was interesting in [Deathstroke]. How do you let loose? I’m an avid reader, so I’m always reading something. I love just hanging out with my wife. We just have a great time together—we’re great, we just laugh all day long. If I had my choice, it would be just jumping in the car with my wife and taking a weekend trip somewhere. You got married here in West Palm Beach—why? You know, the marriage is for both of you, but the wedding is for the wife. She wanted to get married here, at the Breakers, which is such an unbelievable hotel. It’s like a European castle on the beach in Florida—it is insane. She expressed that’s where she always wanted to get married, so we flew out and checked it out and it seemed amazing. And that was it. There are certain things you choose your battles for, and when it comes to the wedding, I recommend every guy out there just do what she wants. My wife was definitely right: It was amazing, the most incredible weekend of my life. It was unbelievable. As a classically trained actor, you’re trained to be in front of the camera, but did you ever expect you’d be part of an A-list couple in the limelight? No, I just married the girl that I love. That was it. I really do believe that we were put on the planet to be with each other. From the first date, it was just like wow! It was so easy in all the ways that you want it to be easy and challenging in all of the most fun ways possible. So I knew right away and that was it. I was never part of a celebrity couple before this, because I never wanted to go through the difficulty that can bring in

terms of paparazzi and attention. Those people want to interfere with your serenity; they want to interfere with your relationship. They want to write things that hopefully will instigate trouble in your relationship so they can sell magazines or get clicks. And it’s a really insidious side of the business, as I’ve found out. The two of us knew that once it became public that we were together—and we had conversations about how that would change a lot of things, and she is the only woman on the planet that I was willing to go through all of that for. Because she’s the greatest. And all that pressure has just brought us closer together. It’s not something that we welcome into our lives. We try to stay private. At the end of the day, it’s really nobody else’s business but ours. It’s just that I love her and she loves me and here we are. And there is a price for that, when living in the public eye. Moving forward, what is a role or a project that you really want? I’d love to get back up on stage. Maybe something on Broadway. I haven’t done Shakespeare in a while. I’m certainly getting old enough to start doing Chekhov roles properly. I love the process of theater; I love table work. I love working for three weeks to a month before you put something up, then you invite an audience in. What charity are you involved in? I’m on the board of trustees for Children’s Hospital of Pittsburgh (chp.edu), and I’m headed there soon to bring the Smurfs to the hospital for the kids, and Sony has been kind enough to let me screen the movie for the kids who can’t go to the theater. We’re going to have a big fundraiser. I love those kids in the hospital, man. Watching kids fight what they’re fighting through just makes your heart swell. You want to do absolutely everything you can to make their fight a little bit easier. What do you love about Miami? I usually visit at least once a year. I love Miami. If I had my way, or if I could live anywhere, it would be Miami, 100 percent. Or somewhere in Southern Florida. I like that humidity, the culture, the Cuban coffee, the cigars. So maybe one day I’ll wind up retiring here.

CENTER of the

UNIVERSE No longer just the gateway to the Americas, Miami is now a true global hot spot, attracting attention from Asia, the Middle East, and beyond.

For years, Miami was a place to watch the sun rise, Jet Ski across the bay, and spend untold hours soaking in the scenery. Heaven on earth hopped up on Cuban coffee, the city’s location made it the perfect escape not just from frigid weather to the north, but from political turmoil to the south. The whole world, it seemed, wanted to come to Miami. They still do, of course, but increasingly now, they all want a piece of the action. “It’s a tropical paradise and a truly urban city,” says Craig Robins, CEO and president of Dacra, the real estate development crew behind Miami’s latest boomtown, the Miami Design District. “Miami has become a city of global cultural substance. It’s hard to define tourist and local. We have full-time residents, we have people who spend the winter here, we have people with second, third, fourth, and fifth homes here, and then we have people staying in hotels. It’s that combination of people who are experiencing Miami in different ways that makes up the totality of our city. It makes Miami a much bigger city than its population.” Indeed, the multimillion-dollar penthouses with helipads at One Thousand Museum (1000museum.com), the Formula One simulators at the Estates at Acqualina (estatesatacqualina.com), the Olympic-size infinity pools and every other amenity under the sun are attracting tenants from across the planet, turning Miami into a genuinely multicultural city. “The first few buildings that we started selling in 2010 right after the down cycle, 80 to 90 percent of my buyers were from Argentina, Venezuela, and Colombia,” says Sonia Figueroa, senior vice president of development for the Related Group. “Then you saw buyers coming in from Turkey, Brazil, and Europe.” Related’s Gran Paraiso (gran paraisoresidences.com) has drawn customers from more than 40 countries—from Italy, France, and Spain to Abu Dhabi and Kuwait, Russia, China, even the Democratic Republic of the Congo. “When we’re doing our outreach, we’re not only going to South America; we’re going all over the world.” In fact, Canada recently overtook Colombia as the country whose citizens search for South Florida real estate most often, according to the Miami Association of Realtors; among foreign buyers of Miami-area property, Canadians rank fourth. But some experts see a surge coming from the East. “This is the dawn of the Asian era,” says Jesse Ottley, president of Cervera’s Development Division and president of the Greater Miami chapter of the Asian Real Estate Association of America. “I think in the next 10 years, we will see a shift in Miami, and a big part of that will be the influence of Asian investors settling down here.” In fact, the association is holding its Global Luxury Summit right here in Miami, April 21–23 (summit.areaa.org)—expected to be the largest gathering of AsianAmerican real estate professionals in the city’s history. Recently classified an “Alpha–” city by the Globalization and World Cities Research Network (based on its booming economy, diverse population, international trade, and vibrant culture), Miami now has the largest concentration of international banks in the United States.

“We have buyers from Norway, we have buyers from Azerbaijan, we have buyers from Hong Kong—all over the world,” says Harvey Daniels, director of sales at One Thousand Museum, the 62-story downtown tower with just 83 residential units. The question is why. Miami has had sun and sand forever, so why in the past five or six years has it become more popular than ever before? “Miami is the Riviera of the South and has always had that energy to it, but in terms of real estate, there is an emergence of ‘starchitects’ coming in and building beautiful monuments that you haven’t seen before,” explains Daniels, who is also vice president of development sales at Sotheby’s International Realty, which represents One Thousand Museum, designed by Pritzker Prize-winning architect Zaha Hadid. Other examples include SLS Brickell (slshotels.com/brickell), with interiors by Philippe Starck, and Gran Paraiso, designed by Piero Lissoni. “When Italian purchasers see the name Lissoni, they recognize that brand of elegant Italian design,” says Figueroa of the Related Group. “I think that’s a plus.” Of course, luring a world-renowned architect takes more than a fat paycheck. First Miami needed to build its global brand—a feat it accomplished by attracting a wide range of major events. In the last few months alone, the city has hosted the Miami International Boat Show, the South Beach Wine & Food Festival, the Ultra Music Festival, the Miami Open, and many more. And don’t forget winning three NBA championships in just 10 years, hosting the 2020 Super Bowl, and welcoming the next edition of the legendary soccer match known as El Clásico. Miami is constantly buzzing, catching the eye of jet-setters from around the world. But the real game-changer, according to most observers, was Art Basel, which debuted its Miami Beach edition in 2002, adding the city to the radar of wealthy international collectors, whose private jets filled runways from here to West Palm Beach. “Art Basel exposed us on a different level,” says Peggy Fucci, president and CEO of OneWorld Properties, the exclusive sales and marketing firm for Paramount Miami Worldcenter (paramountmiami.com). “Miami was not the Miami Vice drug scene that people around the world thought it was. Art Basel brought sophistication, and every year it has grown to exceed the expectations of visitors with restaurants and cultural centers.” But the city’s cultural development since Art Basel hasn’t just attracted scores of tourists; it has also given them a reason to stay. Institutions like Pérez Art Museum Miami (1103 Biscayne Blvd., 305-375-3000; pamm.org), the Institute of Contemporary Art, Miami (icamiami.org), and the Frost Museum of Science (frostscience.org), and restaurants such

as Joe’s Stone Crab (11 Washington Ave., Miami Beach, 305-673-0365; joes stonecrab.com) and Prime 112 (112 Ocean Dr., Miami Beach, 305-532-8112; mylesrestaurantgroup.com)—two of the top 10 highest-grossing restaurants in the country—made Miami unique. Then, New York City hot spots like Upland (49 Collins Ave., Miami Beach, 305-602-9998; uplandmiami.com), Employees Only (1030 Washington Ave., Miami Beach, 786-264-3945; employeesonly miami.com), and Blue Ribbon Sushi Bar & Grill (336 21st St., Miami Beach, 305-800-0404; blueribbonrestaurants.com) came south, adding a dash of culinary familiarity for international scenesters. “Our culinary roots are international and ignore boundaries, and Miami is certainly that kind of place,” says Blue Ribbon owner Ken Bromberg. “One review from the early days referred to our menu as a ‘League of Nations,’ with salt-and-pepper shrimp, escargot, and matzo ball soup all happily coexisting. Miami strikes us as the same kind of city, one where multiple cultures mix and where the clientele appreciates an elevated but casual experience.” That diversity—in the eats and on the streets—in turn helped attract even more people. “Because Miami is so multicultural, it’s very easy to integrate here,” says Ottley of the Asian Real Estate Association of America. “It’s very easy to come here and be accepted. Twenty years ago, I think a Chinatown

would have been an important component, but this new, younger demographic is a lot more integrated and not relying as much on that. Miami is an open city and one of the easiest cities to start a business in, and the price points for real estate are exceptional.” For the Chinese in particular, Ottley explains, a growing Asian student population at the University of Miami and other local colleges has helped lay the foundation: They arrive, their parents invest in property here, and families begin to put down roots. Add the Hong Kong-based Swire Properties’ development of Brickell Key and Brickell City Centre (and the possibility that the airline Cathay Pacific will soon debut a nonstop flight between Miami and Hong Kong) and the future continues to look bright. “It all begins to weave an interesting story of how South Florida will develop with the Asian market,” he says. “China is a market I’ve been cultivating for several years,” adds OneWorld Properties’ Fucci. “Last year I was there five times. For us, the Chinese are our third most important buyer behind Brazil and Turkey.” No matter where he or she arrives from, the new Miamian has high expectations when it comes to real estate amenities, restaurants, culture, and, of course, shopping. Robins, who created the Design District, knew that for it to

be successful, it couldn’t be simply a place to shop. “We’ve really worked on trying to make the Design District a place where, if you’re visiting Miami, it’s something that you have to see and experience,” he says, citing cultural offerings like the ICA, the de la Cruz Collection (23 NE 41st St., 305-576-6112; delacruzcollection.org), Swampspace (3940 N. Miami Ave., 305-710-8631; swampspace.blogspot.com), Locust Projects (3852 N. Miami Ave., 305-576-8570; locustprojects.org), and his own art collection as some of the area’s attractions. “We have a strong public park, a design and architecture program enabling people to walk around the neighborhood and see extraordinary installations. In addition, you can go and see these amazing global flagship stores that don’t exist in many places in the world. The Hermès store (163 NE 39th St., 305-868-0118; hermes.com) in the Design District is one of six in the world of a certain special category for Hermès.” But above all, Miami is growing as a global destination because we offer life in unprecedented variety. On the beaches, you can hear dozens of languages being spoken and a never-ending assortment of topics being discussed. The wealthy can get here fast, get around easily, and feel safe. They can do business by the pool or party till the sun comes up. They can revel in the thrill of a city that seems to move at the speed of light, or lounge on a yacht and sip Champagne in slow motion. Best of all, they can brag to their friends that they live in Miami. “These high-net-worth, globe-trotting individuals who have the funds are trophy property collectors,” says Daniels. “They collect property like they collect art. Miami is a very fun, sexy city, and they like to come here. They’re not the type of investor who’s going to keep it for a year and flip it. That’s not what happens anymore.”

LUXURY LIVING IN SOUTH FLORIDA ISN’T LIMITED TO MIAMI, AS BREATHTAKING NEW PROJECTS COME TO FORT LAUDERDALE AND BEYOND. BY ROBYN A. FRIEDMAN

In the market for a new home in South Florida? Don’t forget to turn your eyes north. Fort Lauderdale is no longer just a spring break destination; it has evolved into a world-class city with superb dining, shopping, performing arts, and luxury homes. But there’s one more factor that may pique the interest of luxury condo buyers. “You’re never going to see pricing like this ever again on Fort Lauderdale Beach,” says Craig Studnicky, a cofounder of the Aventura-based International Sales Group, a real estate sales and marketing firm that represents new projects throughout South Florida. “The equivalent property in Miami Beach is now three times as much.” Here are nine new developments in Greater Fort Lauderdale that merit your attention. LIFE MEETS STYLE: THE RESIDENCES AT W FORT LAUDERDALE

GAME ON IN THE ESTATES AT ACQUALINA, THE TRUMP GROUP IS DOING MORE THAN CREATING AN OPULENT PLACE TO LIVE. IT’S BRINGING ENTERTAINMENT AND ADVENTURE RIGHT TO YOUR DOORSTEP. BY JON WARECH

Amenities are a given in any luxury development, but these days a pool, a gym, and even a world-class spa aren’t enough to satisfy the needs of elite buyers looking to call South Florida home. At the Estates at Acqualina, a $1.5 billion residential project in Sunny Isles Beach (slated to open in 2020), upscale living means a property that’s also a one-stop shop for all your action, adventure, and entertainment desires. The Trump Group (no relation) hired Reddymade Architecture and Design to create Villa Acqualina, a 45,000-square-foot residentsonly amenity complex. Forget about keeping up with the Joneses; this place would make the Jetsons feel at home. “Wealthy people love to be pampered,” says developer Jules Trump. “This is the treatment that they are accustomed to. I don’t think it matters whether they’re from India or Connecticut; they love the pampering idea.” The key, according to Trump, is to design an environment that residents never need to leave—which is why Villa Acqualina will include facilities like a movie theater, bowling lanes, an ice-skating rink, a salt room in the spa, and even a twostory nightclub. “With the level of client we serve, it’s very important that they be entertained,” he says. “They don’t want to go to a public ice rink. As we’ve learned over the years what people like, we add and we test and see what’s around the world that’s attractive to people.” Taking the concept of amenities to a dynamic new level, the Estates will also be home

to a soccer field, basketball courts, a FlowRider for surfers, and a Formula One racing simulator that received an unsolicited seal of approval from a racing legend. “Emerson Fittipaldi was here one day,” Trump says. “He and his son were on the simulator in the Mansions [an adjacent property at Acqualina] for two hours. They enjoyed it tremendously. It gives a very real experience.” For the developer, these perks (which also include a cigar room, an intimate wine room, and a new spin on the office dubbed the Wall Street Traders Club) amount to a $100 million expense—and that isn’t even counting the neighboring Acqualina Resort & Spa, a AAA Five Diamond facility that residents will have full access to. The combination makes the Estates tough to duplicate. “I don’t know that others will follow,” Trump says. “It’s expensive. There are very few places that will go to the extent of having a five-star hotel and five-star amenities. You don’t have to do this to sell apartments, but we want to provide the finest.” For Trump, the living experience begins the second a resident walks through the door, which is why he enlisted Karl Lagerfeld to design the lobbies. “At first we thought, ‘How different can a lobby be?’ But he did something amazing. People are not just impressed by the name, but the sheer beauty of it. Walking in each time will be an experience.” And living there will be extraordinary. 17885 Collins Ave., Sunny Isles, 305-933-6666; estates atacqualina.com

YOUR GUIDE TO THE BEST OF MIAMI DINING, DRINKING, AND NIGHTLIFE

MIDNIGHT IN MIAMI

PHOTOGRAPHY BY CHRIS CARTER

TWENTY-FOUR-HOUR PARISIAN BISTRO PARIS 6 PROFFERS A SLICE OF FRANCE RIGHT ON SOUTH BEACH.

Have you ever left (or rather, closed) the club at 5 AM craving a croque monsieur—with a quail egg on top—only to go to bed hungry? Don’t ever do it again, thanks to Paris 6, open around the clock for all your eating and imbibing needs. The menu ranges from breakfast temptations like puff pastries filled with warm Brie cheese and apricot jelly to pasta dinners of spaghetti and Brie-stuffed filet mignon meatballs. And should your sweet tooth need some satiating, order one of their 19 desserts, like the signature chocolate cake of Nutella ganache, Ferrero Rocher chocolate bits, and toasted hazelnuts infused with Häagen-Dazs dark chocolate and topped with Ferrero Rocher truffle and condensed milk. Wash it all down with a classic French 75 or vino and fromage—it doesn’t get more French (or fabulous) than that. 2200 Collins Ave., Miami Beach, 305-363-6806 The bar at 24/7 bistro Paris 6.

Chances are you’ve had Richard Hales’s fried bird once or twice before, at Sakaya Kitchen or Blackbrick. But have you eaten his three-day “Richard Hales Hot Chicken,” first brined for 24 hours and then hung to dry-age (akin to steak, pork, and Peking duck)? Not unless you’ve been to his ode to Americana, Bird & Bone, at The Confidante. “Making the chicken hot is the last step in the process, but it’s all about the right amount of spice and balance,” he says of his unique blend that packs 10 different spices, including different grades of paprika, dried mustard, cayenne, and a spoonful of sugar. For an added hint of sweetness, Florida honey is drizzled on top of the crispy chicken, which is served alongside house pickles and Zak the Baker country bread. Winner, winner, chicken dinner! 4041 Collins Ave., Miami Beach, 305-424-1234

Sometimes your body needs a nice, juicy steak. Whenever meat calls, grab a loved one, head over to the Design District’s Cypress Tavern, and make a night out of Michael Schwartz’s 32-ounce dry-aged porterhouse with chanterelle mushroom jus. To avoid fighting over the bone, order a couple of sides, like thrice-cooked fries, whipped potatoes, leeks gratin, or Brussels sprouts with bacon and balsamic. And no porterhouse dinner is complete without an oldfashioned—here it gets a twist with chamomileyuzu cordial—or chocolate pot de crème. 3620 NE Second Ave., Miami, 305-520-5197

Intimate conversation and craft cocktails are about the last thing that come to mind when you think of clubbing, but the new kid on the disco block, Ora, is doing revelry a little differently. Sure, you can order bottle service complete with Champagne sparklers or even martinis shaken tableside, while being amazed by a multimilliondollar ceiling that—no, your eyes are not playing tricks on you—actually moves. Or you can get away from the performers imported from Ibiza and the smoke, mirrors, and kinetic ceiling and read a Taschen book in the relaxed, onyx-clad upstairs lair, with a cocktail crafted by beverage director and Las Vegas veteran Roger Gillespie. To drink like owner Ryan Van Milligen does, order a No Country for Old Men, a rye and tequila old-fashioned with ancho chile and bitters.

The Frojoe at Ricky's is a frozen take on Irish coffee.

SING YOUR HEART OUT MONDAY-NIGHT KARAOKE AT RIC Y’S FEATURES WHISKEY, LOADED FRIES, AND THROWBACK JAMS. Picture this: It’s an otherwise normal, low-key night, when all of a sudden Glee star Darren Criss is singing karaoke. Or instafamous former Miss Universe Olivia Culpo is eating a slider as she celebrates her Ocean Drive cover. This is the kind of stuff that happens at Ricky’s on any given evening, though you’ll especially want to hit the retro watering hole on Mondays, when karaoke night makes it extra easy to start off your week with a bang (the 150-plus whiskey collection doesn’t hurt). Slurring your lyrics? The loaded fries—which feature three types of carbs (tater tots, sweet potato wedges, and waffle fries) and come stacked with jalapeño whiz, bacon, fried cherry peppers, scallions, and chili crema—will bring you and your voice back to life. 1222 16th St., Miami Beach, 305-704-3602
