THE AMERICAN DREAM Cava
Long before they were American citizens, siblings Kleber, Nube and Vicente Siguenza developed Cava Wine Bar, a modern Italian restaurant with a Latin twist and generous wine selection. Executive Chef Nube marries her passion for food and her classical training to innovate while remaining true to her Italian inspiration and Latin American roots. No strangers to the intricacies of the palate, the siblings have received The Best of the Gold Coast Award, where Cava’s wine list was highlighted as one of the region’s best. The distinguished history that connects the building to the Connecticut Gold
Coast is prominently displayed in the main dining room, “ensconced in a wine-cellar-like setting,” to provide the ideal temperature all year round for the storage of wine and the enjoyment of guests, from which the venue takes its name. The Siguenzas’ passion for fresh food, fine wine and hospitality has facilitated this family-oriented restaurant to become the American Dream. 2 FOREST STREET • NEW CANAAN 203.966.6946 • CAVAWINEBAR.COM

AN EXCEPTIONAL EDUCATION St. Luke’s School
Randy Matusow Photography
Mark Davis
Mark Davis is the head of St. Luke’s School, a secular, private day school in New Canaan. When Davis describes an exceptional education, words like kindness, leadership, confidence, and moral compass take center stage. Davis is a potent blend of traditional educator and forward thinker. Under his watch, the school launched the area’s only Center for Leadership, unveiled a new Athletic Center, Performing Arts Center and Science Building, and this fall opens stunning new Arts and Humanities Wings that
include a state-of-the-art library (pictured here) and fabrication lab. Davis says St. Luke’s success is driven by an unusually warm culture (one enters the school through Be Kind Plaza), a focus on academic excellence (St. Luke’s is ranked as a Best Private High School by Niche), and top-notch teachers who love their work and their students. 377 NORTH WILTON ROAD • NEW CANAAN 203.966.5612 • STLUKESCT.ORG
