COVER STORY

ITH THE RISE OF SOCIAL MEDIA, IT SEEMS AS THOUGH A LOT of the pomp and circumstance that goes hand in hand with the sport of boxing is at an all-time high. Whether it’s the inflated ego of a boxer-turned-showman or his fans creating unnecessary hoopla, it can be hard to discern the talent from the talk. That is, unless you are Gennady Gennadyevich Golovkin. GGG, as he is better known by his worldwide fan base, is one of the most feared and revered boxers of all time. It may be because of his undefeated boxing record. Perhaps it is because of his nearly 90 percent knockout rate. Or maybe, and most importantly, it is

because it’s always the quiet ones you should watch out for. Whatever it may be, Golovkin’s statistics speak for themselves, so he doesn’t have to. Haute Living had the pleasure of sitting down to talk to “Triple G” in advance of his highly anticipated, upcoming fight, in what should have been a rematch between himself and Canelo Álvarez.

WHY TILMAN J. FERTITTA IS THE ULTIMATE BILLION-DOLLAR BUYER

BY LAURA SCHREFFLER

TILMAN J. FERTITTA IS ANYTHING BUT YOUR AVERAGE BILLIONAIRE. CASE IN POINT: WHEN ASKED about the first major purchase he made after becoming a billionaire, the man responsible for the largest deal in NBA history—the 2017, $2.2 billion-dollar purchase of the Houston Rockets—says he can’t remember.

“You don’t wake up one day and say you’re a millionaire or billionaire; it just kind of happens,” Fertitta maintains from his home base of Houston, Texas. “You get a financial statement, and you say, ‘I’m worth a million dollars.’ When I went public in 1993 and private in 2010, I bought a place in Beaver Creek at the Park Hyatt. Somewhere along the way you buy a boat, you buy another business. I’m more into buying businesses than I am buying toys. Business is my hobby; I just love it.”

a good work ethic, but really, they just want to be entrepreneurial,” he says, adding, “We hire lots of young people. I have two sons that are working with me in the business now [Michael, 25, and Patrick, 23]. They look at things from a different angle, and to be successful, I need that. If you don’t stay ahead of everyone else in terms of music, menu design, interiors and the latest, greatest things, you’re going to get passed by. One of the ways to stay on top of your game is to put millennials around you to self-check certain things, and I do that all the time.”

Luckily, he can afford to buy himself some time, thanks to his trusty Gulfstream V jet. “To be able to get anywhere, whenever you want and not spend all that wasted time in a public air terminal is a luxury.

I haven’t flown commercial since 1991,” he confides, adding, “I’m not saying that in a brag-ish way, I’m saying it in a very fortunate, loving, humble way that I haven’t had to. I hope I never have to experience it again, but if I did, that’s just the way it is. You adjust. I’m not saying that I’m not [fortunate], but it worked out that way, and I’m happy about it.”

uring the highly anticipated SOBEWFF week, Haute Living had the chance to catch up with James Beard Award-winning

chef Jean-Georges Vongerichten at his Miami home base—The Miami Beach EDITION. While the chef was busy soaking up the sun and catching up with close friends at the festival, he also was in the midst of hosting some of SOBEWFF’s most coveted events, such as the abcV Vegan Brunch, as well as Española Way’s Midnight Eats with Action Bronson. Here, the acclaimed chef discusses how the Miami culinary market compares to other cities, how vegan food is transforming the dining scene, his favorite aspects of SOBEWFF week and what he has coming for us in 2018.

AN AUTUMNAL UTOPIA

Chanel introduces its Fall/Winter 2018-2019 collection at the Grand Palais in Paris.

When it comes to design and fashion, no one does it better than Chanel. The famed French fashion house just debuted its fall-winter, 2018-2019 ready-to-wear collection at Paris’ iconic Grand Palais—and the show was nothing short of spectacular.

The expansive indoor space was transformed into an autumnal utopia, with the sunlight beaming through the high skylights, as well as tall, bare trees and fallen leaves in hues of brown, green and orange gracing the floor. Taking cues from the foliage-forward atmosphere, the collection complemented the natural backdrop perfectly, both in the materials and the colors used.

Fabrics like tweed, cotton canvas, soft knits, velvet and corduroy were seasonally appropriate and paired well with accessories like thigh-high boots, fingerless gloves, faux fur cuffs adorned with feathers and bright scarves for a pop of color. Warm hues of pine green, russet, orange and bark brown married chicness and coziness in each piece, while additional details included “branch-like braids, jeweled buttons chiseled with leaves, sautoirs of beads and pastelhued glass paste, necklaces and bracelets interlaced with chains and beads, cabochon and graphic pendant earrings.”

Classic Chanel pieces were also modernized, such as the iconic jacket in mid-length or short at the waist; the Chanel suit with poncho peplums; double-breasted coats; pencil skirts with slits and a dropped waist; oversized overcoats with feathered hems; and of course, the iconic Chanel LBD, or, Little Black Dress. Additionally, Karl Lagerfeld‘s latest bag creation, 31, joined the Chanel accessory family. The shopperstyle handbag is made with smooth leather, along with the complementary fabric choice of printed cotton, canvas or tweed. Mini versions of the Gabrielle bag also made appearances on the runway, along with others.

Budding supermodel Kaia Gerber walked the runway while brand ambassadors like Keira Knightley and Lily Allen looked on.

The transitional season reflected in the gorgeously appointed room reminded the audience and viewers of the stages and cycles of life. Who better to put the essence of the collection into words than Karl Lagerfeld himself, who said, “Chanel, it’s life itself. Clothes that have a possibility of life.”

UNE MAISON ITALIENNE Bottega Veneta opens its third and largest Maison on NYC’s Madison Avenue.

It’s no secret that New York City touts some of the world’s most exclusive brands and designers. And of course, every New Yorker knows there’s something special about the Madison Avenue boutiques, which historically, have been much more fashion-forward and even a bit funkier than their Fifth Avenue counterparts. Bottega Veneta—the newest neighbor on the block—has decided to take a more elegant and sophisticated approach, going back to its debut store opening outside of Italy in 1972.

The Italian fashion house has just opened its third and latest “Maison,” on famed Madison Avenue, the other two being in Milan (opened in 2013) and Beverly Hills (opened in 2016). With 15,000 square feet and even carrying the home and furniture collection of the super-haute brand, this shop is a mustsee addition to the Upper East Side, and the biggest BV ever built. “New York is one of the few cities that speaks to the rest of the world,” began ClausDietrich Lahrs, the brand’s CEO. “For this reason, we believe it’s an important investment and statement in terms of size and visibility.” The impressive

building is comprised of “three, landmarked 19th century townhouses that were originally private residences,” according to the brand. Combining expansive interior spaces as well as smaller, more intimate nooks and crannies, the collections are showcased on five floors, with the fourth floor housing the brand’s newest concept called The Apartment—Bottega Veneta’s home and furniture lines. “The store reflects the love and admiration I have for this city and its architecture,” said Tomas Maier, the Creative Director who designed the Maison. Inspired by Manhattan’s quintessential cityscape, Maier made specific, customized design choices to reflect the Concrete Jungle. For instance, he used varied metallic-hues to mirror the sun reflecting off of the city’s buildings, as well as grays and beiges, paying homage to the city streets. In addition to showcasing the Fall/Winter 2018 collection for the first time ever at New York Fashion Week, Maier also designed a 33-piece capsule collection called “Icons of New York,” for men and women. The line includes a unique selection of leather goods and bags, featuring quintessential New York themes, such as the subway and the skyline, which will surely be adored by New Yorkers and out-of-towners alike. Standout pieces include the “Intrecciato NY Chain Knot embroidered in silvery Lurex thread with a graphic skyline that, on closer look, is made up of tiny block letters spelling out ‘New York,’” and the “Intrecciato North-East workmanship, available on the Brick backpack and Citydoc document case, [which] portrays the soaring buildings in subtle embroidery as if drawn by a charcoal pencil.”

Sneakers have always been the more practical shoe choice, of course. But now that top designers and fashion houses are creating stylish and statement-making sneakers, the functional style has taken on new meaning as a deliberate and chic footwear option. In comes Dior Homme’s B22—the sneaker favored by fashionistos and sneaker heads alike.

Available in mid-May at Dior Homme boutiques, the futuristic footwear style is made in Italy and doesn’t fall at all short of the high quality craftsmanship and attention to detail that one would expect from Dior Homme.

Over the years, Stuart Weitzman has gained significant notoriety as the go-to choice for the strappy sandal—the iconic “Nudist”—and for the over-the-knee boot. But the New York-based shoe brand—with celebrity spokespeople Gigi Hadid and Kate Moss—is really about to kick it up a notch, not just with its shoe offering, but also with a new and diverse line of accessories.

Under new Creative Director, Giovanni Morelli, fans of the brand can still expect to find a wide selection of gorgeous, wearable and on-trend sandals, sneakers, loafers, pumps and flats. For instance, the new SW612 sneaker, made from suede, touts a “sock-like construction and unique, contrasting sole, which can be folded in half for easy packing,” while the Lexy combat boot, with “a lug sole…is finished with wraparound laces on a noticeably streamlined silhouette.”

ALL ABOUT THE LOGO Fendi relaunches its iconic FF logo with the FF Reloaded Capsule Collection, in stores and online.

This spring, Gucci is taking the classic loafer and giving it a modern twist that will make it the new classic.

The FENDI FF logo is one of the most recognizable and iconic designer logos in history, which is why it makes sense that the Italian fashion house has decided to bring it back, and in a big way. In its new FF Reloaded Capsule Collection, the brand has relaunched the FF signature, originally designed in 1965 by none other than Karl Lagerfeld.

“When I arrived at FENDI in 1965 the five FENDI sisters asked me to create a small modern collection of furs,” began Lagerfeld.

“But I also wanted them to be fun, which is one of the FENDI codes. And since FENDI and fun have the same initials, I sketched the two letters together in less than five seconds,

HUBLOT X RICHARD ORLINSKI 44

WHEN FINE WATCHMAKING MEETS ART

H

ublot is a watch brand that is not afraid to push the boundaries. Whether it is in terms of design, technology or materials, the brand has a passion for innovation, which means that it is not uncommon for them to push the boundaries of all three with a

single watch. Hublot is also a brand that enjoys collaborations, not only because of the synergy that it generates but also because the input of others takes Hublot out of its comfort zone.

For the Classic Fusion Aerofusion Chronograph Orlinski, it was the case that challenged Hublot, with its three-dimensional folds. This meant that the entire case of the Classic Fusion Aerofusion had to be rede-

signed, to accommodate the ridges and facets that are the signature of Richard Orlinski’s work. The fact that the two limited editions are made out of either titanium or blue ceramic didn’t make it any easier.

Although the design is the same, the different materials made the two, limited editions (only 200 of each were made) look incredibly dissimilar. The titanium version is polished to perfection—another one of Orlinski’s signatures. This is quite a contrast with the blue ceramic version, which is bead blasted, giving it a matte finish. Combined with the black details and strap, it is a contrast of color, which makes it the more sporty-looking watch of the two.

Hublot's complete redesign of the Classic Fusion Aerofusion Chronograph also becomes evident at the back of the watch. From behind the sapphire glass of the reworked case back one gets to admire the HUB1155 automatic chronograph caliber. It has a 42-hour power reserve, and next to the chronograph function, it also

features the date. These complications are displayed on the sapphire crystal dial, which gives an insight into the inner workings of the movement, yet at the same time also allows for easy reading of the time, as well as the chronograph function.

The Classic Fusion Aerofusion Chronograph Orlinski is yet another example how Hublot does collaborations that no other brand can. Both models are a work of art, in the style Richard Orlinski became famous for, but somehow still distinctly a Hublot. The combination results in a true expression of pure horological art.

color-coding that Pirelli uses for its Formula 1 racing tires. Both have a black titanium case, in which you can find Calibre 820SQ, with its signature skeletonized bridges and micro-rotor. Additionally, the strap is made from rubber, which comes from race tires that have been used by a Formula 1 car.

The Excalibur Aventador S also gets two very exciting new additions to its lineup, each with a very different personality. The Excalibur Aventador S Blue is everything one might expect from a high-performance car. Powered by the RD103SQ movement, with its distinctive, double balance wheels, it is made from C-SMC carbon, which Lamborghini itself uses to craft its cars. The blue accents in the watch and the strap are put in contrast with red hands, minute markers and the outer ring of the dial. Combined, they offer a vibrant explosion of color.

The Excalibur Aventador S Pink Gold shows the more formal side of the watch. For this version, Roger Dubuis fits a titanium container—which holds the movement—in a multi-layer carbon case, and a pink gold bezel, over-molded with black rubber. A few years ago this combination of materials was unheard of, yet now they are used combined to establish a synergy, which gives a new dynamic to luxury watchmaking.

The other, a textbook German outfit renowned for creating technologically advanced driving machines that, despite their huge performance, are relatively subtle in their execution.

The diamond stitched seats and carbon fiber dashboard are also AMG styling cues, but surprisingly, the two engines are not Mercedes-Benz based, but instead come from Mercury Racing. To marinize AMG’s engines would require serious redevelopment, and with Mercury already building a reliable 775-horespower motor, it made sense to fit a pair of the big V8s in the GT S.

MERCEDES-BENZ ARROW460-GRANTURISMO With the Mercedes-Benz range spanning everything from the X-Class pickup truck to the ultra-luxury Maybach subbrand, there is much scope for the company when it comes to building an oceangoing craft. While AMG’s collaboration with Cigarette Racing is covering the high-performance side, it was up to the United Kingdom’s Silver Arrows Marine to create a suitable luxury cruiser, the Arrow460-Granturismo.

Here, sumptuous luxury comes before outright performance, as the Arrow460-Granturismo has been designed to pamper more than thrill. That’s not to say that the 460’s twin six-cylinder turbo diesels can’t raise a smile, but once you see the interior, you’ll understand that this is an S-Class that just happens to float.

Up to 10 guests can relax in the Granturismo’s interior, with its large glazing and open layout creating a light, bright and spacious feeling. The blue and gray color scheme is complemented by the fine grain eucalyptus with Mercedes S-Class air conditioning ushering in the conditioned air. Only 10 460s will initially be built, and if you’re interested, prices start at around $1.7 million. www.silverarrowsmarine.com

LEXUS SPORT YACHT Did you know that Toyota builds boats? That may come as a surprise, but what’s even more astonishing is the range of dinky Ponams is seriously cool. These fun little cruisers are extremely easy to fall in love with. After one trip, Toyota’s president, Akio Toyoda, was so impressed he decided he wanted to see what sort of boat his luxury Lexus division could come up with. The result is the Lexus Sport Yacht. Powered by two 885-horsepower Lexus V8s (based on those used in the high-performance RC F and GS F cars) this 42-foot sportster can hit a top speed of 42 knots with the throttles pushed forward, while up to eight guests can delight in the sound of 16 cylinders firing out a throaty chorus.

Although designed by Lexus in Japan, the actual build was handled by the Marquis-Carver Yacht Group in Wisconsin.

They made sure the hull’s carbon fiber reinforced plastic was up to the job handling-wise, while also perfecting the naval architecture. Unfortunately, Lexus has no intention of putting the Sport Yacht into production. It will remain as a one-off build that demonstrates the skills and flexibility of Lexus’ designers and craftsmen.

BUGATTI COLLABORATED WITH PALMER JOHNSON FOR THE PROJECT.

BUGATTI NINIETTE 66 Continuity is vitally important for your average multi-billionaire. One should always be aware of mixing style. Unless you’re a clown, never mix patterns, and if you want to be top of the jet set, your yacht should really match your car. Now joining AMG, Aston Martin, Mercedes-Benz and Lexus is the high-performance king itself, Bugatti.

The Niniette 66 is the Bugatti Chiron’s big, brash, sailor brother; a 20-meter hyperyacht that combines the supercar’s signature design traits with a hull-full of innovation. Bugatti turned to Palmer Johnson for the 66’s naval architecture, a shipyard renowned for creating the finest

Quite incredibly, the Chiron produces only 500hp less than the Niniette, but even the world’s fastest car can’t come close to the 66’s equipment list. Has the Chiron got a Jacuzzi in its boot lid? Does it have a champagne bar behind the driver’s seat? And we’re pretty sure a fire pit surrounded by five large sunpads is missing from the supercar’s options list. Chiron owners had better get their orders in quick, however, as Bugatti will only be producing 66 examples. An instant legend? Absolutely. www.bugattininiette.com

Other design elements include gradated diamond quilted leather seats, a new exterior paint finished called “Liquesence,” which has a liquid metal finish, as well as seven design packs with different aesthetic elements, such as exterior paint, bespoke badges and interior materials. For instance, the “modernist” theme has “ethereal silver exterior paint with a liquesence finish and rose gold, chrome knurled badges.”

With a top speed of 165mph (and the ability to go from 0-60mph in just five seconds), the SV Coupe is the fastest Range Rover with the most powerful engine to date, with 557 horsepower and 516lb. ft., 5.0-liter supercharged V8 powertrain. As articulated by Mark Stanton, Special Vehicle Operations Director, “the SV Coupe is more than skin deep. This is a meticulously honed vehicle that’s designed for SV clients who love driving.”

TheHAUTE LISTAuto THE NEED FOR SPEED… AND COMFORT Lamborghini launches the Urus: The world’s first super SUV and the world’s fastest SUV

Lamborghini—a name long known for the most impressive sports cars—is raising the bar, yet again, with the launch of the Lamborghini Urus: The world’s first Super Sport Utility Vehicle. Staying true to Lamborghini’s dedication to gorgeous design, high performance and unparalleled power, the introduction of the Urus is a real game changer in the world of luxury SUVs. “The Lamborghini Urus is a visionary approach based on the infusion of Lamborghini DNA into the most versatile vehicle, the SUV,” began Stefano Domenicali, Automobili Lamborghini Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “The Urus elevates the SUV to a level not previously possible: The Super SUV. It is a true Lamborghini in terms of design, performance, driving dynamics and emotion, as well as drivable every day in a range of environments. It is a culmination of intensive development and passionate skill to create a new breed of bull: A super SUV that transcends the boundaries of expectations and opens the door to new possibilities, for both our brand and our customers.”

The technical details are just as impressive as one would expect from a Lamborghini.

The Urus touts a new, front-mounted 4.0 liter V8 twin-turbo engine with 650 horsepower (478 kW) at 6,000 rpm and a maximum of 6,800 rpm. Accelerating from 0-100km/hour in just 3.6 seconds and with a top speed

of 305 km/h, it is the fastest SUV on the market. Additionally, its four-wheel drive system makes for an incredibly secure drive with highlyresponsive driving dynamics in all environments and weather conditions, as does the carbon ceramic brakes (CCB), and a range of wheel options from 21-23 inches, offered with summer, winter, all-season, all-train and sports tires—all of which were specially developed by Pirelli for the Lamborghini Urus. The interior boasts a fully-digital and customizable TFT display with animated 3D representation of information and a 3,003mm wheelbase with low seating position for all occupants.

Though the Urus is a new style for the Lamborghini fleet, it is still, very recognizably, a Lamborghini. Inspired by the LM002 and other super Lamborghini sports cars, it retains the two-thirds body and one-third window ratio, though it offers a bit more space on the inside for the driver/passengers—five occupants in total. It also features “a dynamic, coupé-style fly line, accented by the frames doors and emphasizing the typical Lamborghini characteristic of a lower front end…

The Y-shaped front air intakes, also a feature of the LM002, are detailed with the Italian flag: the Urus is born and made in Italy.” And that luxurious Italian style is a prominent feature through the vehicle, as it uses the most high quality leather, Alcantara, aluminum, carbon fiber and wood—some of which are customizable, per the buyer’s preferences.

APPAMAN FOR THE LITTLE MAN (OR LADY) With a wide range of styles for boys and girls, Appaman has become a favorite brand among celebrity parents.

Celebrity parents are always the first ones in-the-know when it comes to the latest and greatest kids brands for their babes. Appaman has long been a celebrity-parent favorite. Norwegian founder and designer Harald Husum created the brand in 2003 and named it after his childhood companion—a stuffed animal made from corduroy named Appaman. Per the brand, “Appaman reflects the whimsical spirit of those youthful times and celebrates the unbreakable bond between a boy and his ape.”

Taking inspiration from streetwear, Husum fuses these elements into his pieces, creating gorgeous, high-quality clothes that are fun and even sophisticated for the little ones. There are a few pieces that celebrity parents are particularly fond of. For instance, Kim Kardashian loves the Pink Fur Coat; Hilaria and Alec Baldwin love the Adler Tee in pumpkin spice, the Nikki Bomber in Rose Quartz and the Long KEEPING UP WITH REIGN Reign Disick poses for a shot with his aunt, while wearing Appaman.

Down Coat in sparkle black; Ashlee Simpson loves the Tibetan Red Velvet Mod Suit; and Gwen Stefani loves the Seaport Velvet Mod Suit. Several celebrity kids turn to the brand for more formal styles, such as Kourtney Kardashian and Scott Disick‘s son Reign Disick—with aunt Khloé Kardashian (pictured to the left) wearing a sophisticated Appaman look.

MATCHING MINI WITH MOMMY Mott50 creates matching mother-and-baby swim styles for the most adorable, photo-ready moments.

Who could forget when Chrissy Teigen posted that absolutely adorable photo of her and her daughter, Luna, twinning in avocado-print swimsuits? That may have been one of the most memorable celebrity mom-and-baby moments in history. The brand that makes the matching styles is called Mott50. Not only do they still sell the Mini Mila (pictured on Luna) and the Kelly (pictured on Chrissy) styles, but they also have a large selection of equally adorable styles for mom and for baby.

For instance, the zebra-print, elephant-print and emoji-print swimsuits are kid favorites, while mom may opt for the stylish and practical Mila style: A longsleeved one piece in striking magenta or simple white coloring, with a sexy, bellybutton-length front zip. The fabrics are soft and comfortable, as well as quickdrying—perfect for the active mom who enjoys water sports and/or beach-related activities. And a huge, added bonus is that every single garment that the brand PHOTOS: MOTT50

makes is coated so that it is certified with 50 UPF sun protection.

GOOD MAMA FOR THE SOON-TO-BE MAMAS During her pregnancy, Khloé Kardashian launched a maternity collection with the clothing company she co-founded, Good American After sisters Kylie and Kim welcomed new additions to their growing families, Khloé Kardashian was the last of the Kardashian/Jenner clan to have a baby... at least for now. So we’re all eyes on Khloé, who recently gave birth to baby girl True Thompson. During her pregnancy, the youngest Kardashian didn’t sacrifice her style for comfort. With the clothing company she co-founded, Good American, Khloé launched a line of Good American maternity clothes, called Good Mama, so she could have both.

The collection features two different, flattering styles. The Honeymoon— named for the first stage of pregnancy, where some women don’t necessarily show their growing bumps—touts two elastic panels on either side of the jean for comfort and to create a flattering shape. The elastic panels are also nonrestrictive, so that moms-to-be are not left with annoying marks on their hips and sides. This fit is available in mid and low-rise styles.

The Home Stretch style, on the other hand, is for mamas that are about to pop! Per the brand, it “offers an ultra-soft belly cocoon with the ultimate recovery for full and cozy coverage near the end of a pregPHOTOS: GOOD AMERICAN

nancy.” Both are available in sizes 00-24 for soon-to-be moms of all shapes and sizes.

Khloé was, of course, photographed wearing the styles. But even in the later stages of her pregnancy, she said she was still a fan of the Honeymoon fit. She was also kind enough to have gifted the jeans to some of her celebrity friends who are expecting, such as Eva Longoria.

FRENCH RIVIERA PLAYGROUND TO THE RICH & FAMOUS The likes of Pablo Picasso, Marlene Dietrich and the Kennedy family have summered on the French Riviera.

Come for the Cannes Film Festival, but make sure not to miss out on these Côte d’Azur luxury destinations

This May, upward of 30,000 people will descend upon the picture-perfect, impossibly glamorous city of Cannes. And while there’s an allure to rubbing shoulders with the beautiful people (aka celebrities such as this year’s jury president, Oscar winner Cate Blanchett), there is so, so much more to the Côte d’Azur.

Please, come for Cannes, but make sure not to miss out on these other, equally lovely French Riviera locales.

BREAKING BARRIERS Chef José Andrés’ new restaurant, Somni, removes barriers between chefs and guests.

Known for his rule-breaking dining concepts and avant-garde cuisine, acclaimed chef José Andrés has done it again with the opening of Somni, a new, unique fine-dining establishment nestled within The Bazaar by José Andrés at the SLS Beverly Hills. Helmed by Andrés’ restaurant group’s culinary director, Aitor Zabala, Somni is more than just a restaurant—it’s an experience.

“We always wanted to create an experience with only one table,” said Zabala, who has been working with Andrés for years, spearheading numerous other restaurant openings. “It continued to evolve with the idea of the chefs being close to the guest. [It’s] a space where you can be more focused and more precise with each dish while simultaneously giving more attention to the guest.” At Somni, there are no barriers between chefs and guests. It’s

all very intimate with just one 10-seat counter, where guests are completely immersed in all the action creating a multi-sensory epicurean experience.

“It’s a more approachable way for the guest to experience fine dining,” Zabala continued. “It’s a fun time, but the service is elevated. We

want to feed our guests’ stomachs and also feed their minds.”

Although the tasting menu—comprised of more than 20 courses, each a veritable piece of art almost too pretty to eat—is ever-evolving, one thing that will remain consistent is the excitement. “It’s a flow of textures, flavors and temperatures,” Zabala noted. “We make each dish with the best products, perhaps some that our guests have never tried or experienced before.”

To complement the menu, three levels of wine pairings are available: “Unique” features small production wines; “Prized” touts rare and limited bottles; and “Vintage,” of course, is comprised of oldies but goodies. Non-alcoholic pairings are also available, with house-made infusions designed to imitate the aroma profiles of Californian and Spanish wines.

Somni, which translates to “dream” in Catalan, lives up to its name not only through the cuisine but through the design, too. The light and stylish space, once the home of SAAM—another Andrés/Zabala creation—is truly dreamy. SAAM’s formerly moody, retro vibe has been replaced with a natural palette of wood and marble creatively juxtaposed with bespoke rainbow-colored animal-head sculptures by Spanish pop surrealist artist Okuda San Miguel.

All in all, everything about Somni—the artfully plated fare, the soothing design, the warm and welcoming ambiance—creates a distinct dining experience that discerning diners are already welcoming with open arms and empty stomachs.

27TH MONACO YACHT SHOW The most spectacular yacht show in the world Once again, I found myself at the Port Hercule touring over 125 mega yachts, amazed that The Monaco Yacht Show is indeed the Mecca of the yachting community. The show last year included the notable strong attendance of American and Russian clients and the largest and youngest fleet ever with 50 per cent of yachts less than two years old and an average length of 49m.

As tens of thousands of visitors fought their way through four days of yachts on exhibit and marketing events, it’s important to pin down a certain type of clientele in this unique opportunity. Some 36,400 participants walked the electric-blue carpet with some invited via the organizer’s new Sapphire Experience

By night, the bright lights of Monaco formed a spectacular backdrop to over 150 private events. I hang out most of the nights at the Monaco Yacht Club for dinners and drinks with friends. But there was the annual gala party, where forward-thinking Heesen’s Home, Oceanco’s showstopper Jubilee and Italian masterpiece Seven Sins by San Lorenzo, swept up the awards. Lurssen hosted their party this time at the Monaco Yacht Club instead of one of their mega yachts. It’s not the same ambiance compared to the past Lurssen parties I attended on-board Solandge and Quattroelle.

My “trophy yacht” is Lurssen’s Areti. Dubbed “a yachtsman’s yacht,” the 85-meter Areti was custom-designed and built for a Russian client with its layout oriented towards intimate and cozy spaces for family and friends. A stunning feat

A little to the west is the business capital of Toronto, which is sophisticated, cosmopolitan and more globally inspired in its cuisine, with many chefs exploring styles and ingredients from all over the world. There’s a real synergy between what’s happening in the kitchens of New York and Toronto, and a lot of chefs train in New York and then return home to put their own spin on what they’ve learned.

by chef Craig Harding.

I first started visiting Canada. At the time, I was lucky enough to be piloting a brand-new, fire-engine-red 599 12-cylinder Ferrari on an excursion to the Circuit Mont-Tremblant, where I was part of a caravan line of 20 vintage cars from the 1950s driving to celebrate the 50th anniversary of this exquisite car. Somewhere during the trip, I got separated from the police escorts and ended up on a long, deserted dirt road in the middle of nowhere that made me wonder if I was heading to Mont-Tremblant or the North Pole.
