From the Editor

I love this time of year. Everything is in bloom, the sun shines brighter than usual, and school is almost out for the summer. There’s a glorious anticipation in the air as we get ready to sink into a slower, more carefree pace.

Audrey Gruss was certainly feeling the pull of spring when she opened her home to 14 glamorous ladies, all dressed in white, to celebrate new beginnings.

Having known Audrey for more than a decade, I could attest to her style, both as a fashion trendsetter and as a hostess, so I was not surprised at the elegance of the mise-en-scène. But I’ve also known her as a woman of substance who sets a goal and goes after it single-mindedly. This party had both: style, expressed in a quartet of fragrant white flowers, some of which were flown in for the occasion; and meaning, as it honored her late mother and her battle with a disease no one talks about: depression.

Audrey’s tribute, however, extends to more than an afternoon gathering for tea and conversation. Shortly after her mother’s death, she founded the Hope for Depression Research Foundation to fund initiatives that will identify new treatments for the disease. Most recently, she launched a fragrance—named Hope, after her mother—whose net proceeds go directly to the cause. The scent was made with the same white flowers Hope loved and which graced the table at Audrey’s gorgeous tea party. Turn to “Message in a Bottle” on page 44 for the stunning photos and to read more about Audrey’s leadership and impact.

Since Memorial Day is around the corner, why not try something new with your entertaining? Take inspiration from “Scientific Sips,” on page 52, and concoct libations that will not only refresh your guests, but will also foster an appreciation for cocktails on a molecular level. Well, maybe not that second part—but they will certainly look cool. Who wouldn’t want to serve a Liquid Nitrogen Orange Sorbet Mimosa at her next pool party?

The easy, breezy transition to summer is reflected on all our pages. Savor it!

PROMOTION

Power to the Tiano, Armour & Smyth Wealth Managers J.P. Morgan Securities

Sal Tiano, Louise Armour and John Smyth collectively have more than 85 years of wealth management experience in the industry, predominantly at the same firm. That speaks volumes to their commitment to clients, to each other and to their firm, J.P. Morgan Securities.

Together, they have assembled a team of specialists that offers what Tiano calls, “structural alpha”: adding value with thoughtful advice and experience in every aspect of the client’s financial life.

“As our own experience at one firm attests, we offer stability and success over the long term,” says Tiano. “We have the capability to handle almost anything a client may need – borrowing, banking, sophisticated money management and estate planning.”

Over time, their practice has grown – largely through client referrals and deepening relationships with the next generation. They now oversee nearly $3.3 billion in individual- and family-owned assets. “We form relationships with families, and they tend to stay with us over the long term. Stability and loyalty are hallmarks of our practice.”

COMING TOGETHER: CARING ABOUT CLIENTS IN THE SAME WAY As highly successful Financial Advisors, Tiano and Armour were aware of one another and were long-time colleagues. Then they had a chance to experience how each worked first-hand. Tiano serves on the board of a regional theatre group. “Louise was among the candidates who responded to our search for someone to manage the endowment.

I saw her exceptional standard of detail and follow-through as well as investment acumen. I thought to myself, ‘She cares about her clients the way I care about mine.’”

“I was a lone wolf for nearly 34 years,” says Armour. “So you can imagine the fortitude it took to go it alone in a largely male-dominated industry. I wasn’t looking to partner with anyone, but I was so impressed with Sal’s integrity, professionalism and the great respect he had for his

3

rd

clients. I thought, ‘He’s the kind of Advisor I could team up with because he puts his clients first as well.’”

It wasn’t long before they began working together. Meanwhile, Smyth had moved from San Francisco to Palm Beach, and his children attended the same school as Tiano’s. His background in fixed income and experience in the bond pit at the Chicago Board of Trade would be, Tiano realized, the ideal complement to his and Armour’s wealth management experience. “We put our egos aside, and three veteran Advisors came together to form what has proved to be a very successful practice for our clients,” says Tiano.

EXPERTISE MATTERS The team has its own investment committee whose research and analysis from across the firm help guide its portfolio management.

“What is unique about our group,” says Smyth, “is that we have bankers, fixed income specialists, Certified Financial Planners (CFPs) and Chartered Financial Analysts (CFAs), all on the same team. To have access to this degree of expertise is very unusual and allows us to anticipate our clients’ needs and serve them better.”

“We have different views that we enjoy discussing,” notes Armour, “and because we have different styles and strengths, we are stronger as a team.”

COMMITMENT TO OUR COMMUNITY In addition to a passion for their clients and their work, the triumvirate share an allegiance to giving back to their communities. Smyth is very involved in Choate Rosemary Hall, his high school alma mater, and Armour actively fundraises for the M.D. Anderson Cancer Center. Tiano sits on the boards of several organizations, including the Planned Giving Council of the Place of Hope, a child welfare organization.

COMMITMENT TO CLIENTS The team is 13-members strong, each contributing a unique experience and forming a cohesive unit with the common goal of client first.

BEACH DAY

Palm Beach County has no shortage of amazing beaches. With Memorial Day marking the unofficial start of summer, now’s the time to select a sandy spot to fit your personality and interests. Here are a few suggestions.

For Families: Carlin Park, Jupiter

For Weekend Warriors: Lake Worth Municipal Beach

With 3,000 feet of guarded beach and ample activities, Carlin Park is the ideal destination for beachfront family fun. In addition to picnic pavilions, it also boasts sport courts (bocce ball, anyone?) and is home to Seabreeze Amphitheater, which hosts musical acts and festivals all year.

This beloved locals’ hangout centers around the Casino Building and Beach Complex, an historic 1920s structure that debuted a major renovation in 2013. The public beach is particularly packed on the weekends, so get there early and put your name in for a brunch table at Benny’s on the Beach, located on the pier.

For Nature Lovers: John D. MacArthur Beach State Park, North Palm Beach As the county’s only state park, John D. MacArthur Beach offers one-ofa-kind natural beauty, including two miles of beaches and a 1,600-foot boardwalk leading to a nature center. On-shore fishing is allowed with a license, and snorkelers and divers can explore numerous nearby reef and rock formations.

For Sightseers: Palm Beach Municipal Beach Given its prime location near Worth Avenue, this midtown beach is the perfect home base for visiting all of Palm Beach’s main attractions. Bring a bike and set up camp on the sand before riding around the island. Be sure to swing by Green’s Pharmacy to cool down with an old-fashioned egg cream.

023_INSIDER_0518.indd 23

For Party People: Delray Municipal Beach Those who want to see and be seen flock to the Atlantic Avenue section of this highly rated beach, which measures 7,000 feet. Grab a bite to eat and a drink—or two—on the avenue and then retreat to the sand for an afternoon of swimming, surfing, sandcastles, and Frisbee.

For Sun Worshippers: Red Reef Park, Boca Raton This 67-acre oceanfront park has everything, from bountiful natural foliage to the Gumbo Limbo Nature Center. A slice of Old Florida, its beach is a great place to slather on sunscreen and take in some rays.

There’s tons of shade if it gets too warm, and the water also beckons with enchanting snorkeling sites.

WEDDING BELLS

With the royal wedding of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle scheduled for May 19, brides around the world will be looking to their nuptials to determine the next top trends. Here, seven local event planners and industry professionals weigh in on what’s in vogue for 2018 weddings.

DECOR “My favorite decor pieces have been handmade and artistic. Hand-cut paper flowers, thoughtful art installations, natural dyed fabrics, and creative backdrops are at the top of my design wish list. Once the celebration concludes, these wedding artifacts can be displayed in the newlyweds’ home.”

“With Ultra Violet being the Pantone color of the year, we’re starting to see more colorful weddings. Whether it’s in the florals, linens, or attire, brighter and bolder colors are starting to make a comeback. The blushes, ivories, and pastels will always be in style, but it’s nice to see more people making bold color choices.”

“Our favorite decor trend for 2018 is tropical leaves and greenery. This is a great addition to the recently popular garden trend, especially in South Florida, where tropical foliage makes up most of our lush landscape.”

FOOD “Pre-ceremony libations and bites. When appropriate, welcoming guests with a refreshment or a snack is a great way to warm up the mood before vows are exchanged. My personal favorite would be local beers or wines paired with a rustic cheeseboard. It’s simple enough to mingle and not too indulgent.”

“Think outside the box when designing food displays and stations. We recently had a tequila donkey at an outdoor wedding. He was part of a station that served tequila shots and a variety of mini tacos. Guests love interactive and fun stations; they become part of the entertainment and experience of the day.”

“Donut walls! Donuts have been a popular food trend for weddings for a few years now and are still sticking around as a 2018 wedding trend.

They’re a fun, interactive dessert option for guests. Let’s be real, who doesn’t love donuts?”

APPAREL “Rather than veils, I’m loving delicate capes and sheer split sleeves. Both offer a flowing accessory to the gown, a little coverage, and a lot of impact. And more color or patterns, gentlemen, please! I adore an interesting tie, a quirky pocket square, or a bold suit jacket.”

“This year, I am loving capes.

They’re an incredible alternative to a veil and can be dramatic and add something unique to your attire.”

“Navy is the new black. We have noticed a lot of grooms are replacing the formal black suit or tux with a dark blue or navy suit. It’s a great alternative for a formal black-andwhite look.”

“For 2018, we’re seeing Italy. Couples are incorporating the seaside glamour of the Amalfi Coast into decor. Azure and other blue hues inspired by the ocean can be found everywhere including votives, chargers, water goblets, and china. Pops of bright Meyer lemon yellow, shades of green, and crisp white pull together this gorgeous palette.”

“My favorite food trend for 2018 is bitesize, street food–style desserts with exotic flair. This can be anything from donuts to pretzels, but with a twist. Opt for unique flavors, such as Funfetti donut holes or red bean cake bites. Putting a gourmet twist on traditional wedding cuisine is definitely a fun trend.”

“Statement dresses.

Our brides are selecting a simpler silhouette with a wow factor design element, such as a large bow or a plunging backline.”

“One of my favorite trends of 2018 is bringing color into the ballroom; rich colors like burgundy paired with gold and rose-gold metallic. While neutrals are still so classic and beautiful, adding a pop of color—whether it’s a deep red, a vibrant pink, or even heavier greenery—is popular this year.”

“Signature drinks are still a trend.

His and Hers cocktails served as guests arrive to the cocktail hour are always a hit. It can even be representative of the location. This adds a touch of personality and helps relieve the mad rush to the bar.”

“Removable skirts. I love that brides can buy a gown they can dance comfortably in for their party, but still have the tradition of the full wedding gown for their ceremony.”

“Simple and sophisticated is one of the biggest wedding trends for 2018. Bling, clutter, and the ‘over-the-top everything’ approach to wedding decor is taking a backseat to modern, clean, and minimal—more thoughtful—design. Classic place settings, warm candlelight, organic-style florals, and shared plates pair well with this simpler wedding style that is down-to-earth but still special.”

“I’m so thrilled that 2018 is seeing bold and moody color, vibrant texture, and subtle themes. Romantic looks never go out of style, but modern and clean has, for the most part, replaced rustic and vintage.”

“This less-is-more trend is also reflected in the food being requested as clients are looking to focus more on the quality of the ingredients, with an organic approach to presentation by incorporating raw materials and natural elements into plating and staging.”

“The trend for healthy and hearty fare is still in full swing. A multitude of creative food stations, hearty family-style dinners, farm-fresh and local fare, latenight bites, and take-home snacks are all over 2018 weddings. There is a huge emphasis on good and plentiful food.”

“I’m loving shorter wedding dress hemlines for 2018. Brides are ditching the full-length gown for mini, midi, and high-low hem dresses with a fun, youthful, modern look while still definitively bridal. This trend is perfect for outdoor celebrations year-round in South Florida.”

“Pearls perfectly illustrate classic and chic styling. Showing up on sleeves, veils, capelets, necklines, and back buttons, as well as in bold earrings, and multi-strand necklaces on bare skin, pearls are the perfect way to add a little feminine romance without screaming bling.”

Love NOTES

When it comes to celebrating a first wedding anniversary, tradition dictates the gift should be one of paper. In the digital age, this quest can leave many a modern couple stumped. That’s where Mrs. John L. Strong comes in. Founded in 1929, Mrs. John L. Strong specializes in bespoke stationery featuring handengraved motifs, with products and services available at Leta Austin Foster on Palm Beach and at mrsstrong.com. PBI chatted with owner and creative director Jacqueline Kotts about custom projects and the art of the handwritten letter.

Together with her team of skilled artisans, Jacqueline Kotts of Mrs. John L. Strong can fulfill an array of bespoke requests, from traditional monograms to one-of-a-kind pet portraits.

PBI: Why do you feel paper, and bespoke stationery in particular, makes a good first anniversary gift?

Kotts: Celebrating the first year of marriage on paper has been a tradition that originated in England and came to the United States soon thereafter. Giving a gift that not only keeps up with this centuries-old tradition but also is personal and meaningful is [very special], especially as a first-year anniversary present. We have more and more clients requesting a custom motif for first-year anniversary presents. We had one woman come in with a photo of her husband’s prize-winning vintage car that she wanted to have engraved so he could use it on his stationery.

We also have a number of clients coming to us with images of their pets or an image of a new home they would like to convert into an engraved illustration to use on their stationery.

Mizner

THE MAN

It’s time to get to know the man behind the facades. Released in March, the new book Addison Mizner: The Architect Whose Genius Defined Palm Beach (Lyons Press, $50) looks at the life and work of the region’s most influential architect. Mizner, who moved to Palm Beach in 1918, designed more than 50 Florida homes and is credited as the mastermind behind such landmarks as the Everglades Club, the Boca Raton Resort & Club, and Via Mizner. In their latest tome, authors Stephen Perkins and James Caughman seek to reconcile Mizner’s biography with his approach to his craft, zeroing in on how he came to develop his signature Spanish and Mediterranean Revival style that can be seen across South Florida.

26

How long does the bespoke process take?

Our standard turnaround time to create a stationery set is four to six weeks. Between creating the artwork and engraving, it usually takes an additional two to four weeks to have a custom motif made.

What’s one of your favorite bespoke projects?

A very detailed pet parrot named Burrdo. The note is a bright cherry red and very cheerful.

What’s been your most unusual request?

One client recently wanted an illustration of a donkey on a surfboard to create notecards as a gift. That was a charming bespoke project to take part in.

Why should someone invest in bespoke stationery?

The art of letter writing is not dying, it’s just less convenient than writing an email or a text. There is something so heartwarming about both writing and receiving a completely personalized letter, invitation, or thank-you note. That kind of feeling gets lost when sending the same message in a text or an email.

EASY STREET Clematis Street is getting a facelift. Regarded as downtown West Palm Beach’s main thoroughfare, Clematis is home to dozens of businesses and restaurants. Beginning in June, the city will start to implement a Clematis Streetscape design project that will bring changes to the 300 block of Clematis aimed at enhancing safety, walkability, and economic development, among other needs. The redesign—which incorporates feedback from area businesses and residents—will increase space for pedestrians by 18 percent. These improvements include adding more trees for shade and extending sidewalks from 9 to 12 feet. The city expects to complete construction by October, and will then schedule improvements for additional blocks. (wpb.org/ clematisstreetscape)

When Jane Birkin sported her wicker basket purse in the ’70s, she likely had no idea the style’s popularity would persist more than 40 years later. This Michael by Michael Kors wicker pineapple crossbody bag ($358), available at select Michael Kors lifestyle stores and online at michaelkors.com, merges the trend with a pineapple motif for an air of effortless chic that resonates with Palm Beach style, day or night.

The Hacienda Hotel Vira Vira offers superb accommodations and culinary delights, all nestled within Pucón, a prime destination for outdoor adventures.

as short as one day and as long as one week, organizing everything from wheels to tastings.

Chile’s most venerated valleys, Casablanca and Colchagua, typically anchor Upscape itineraries. Casablanca’s cool, coastal climate fosters prime real estate for Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, and Pinot Noir. And because it’s located an hour from Santiago, it’s easy to stay in Chile’s vibrant capital by night and play in Casablanca by day. For example, overnight at Hotel Magnolia, a restored 1929 mansion in the heart of downtown,

Pucón Despite its emerald lakes, sky-high waterfalls, snow-capped volcanoes, and majestic rainforests, Pucón has managed to remain Chile’s bestkept secret. But, now, thanks to the opening of Hacienda Hotel Vira Vira, the region’s first installment of world-class accommodations, Pucón has arrived on the international travel map.

Pucón’s landscapes recall, and easily rival, New Zealand’s South Island. And similar to Queenstown in New Zealand, Pucón is Chile’s adventure capital. Here, fabled sceneries serve as picturesque playgrounds for activities like hiking, mountain biking, horseback riding, and river rafting in summer, and snowshoeing, snowboarding, and even volcano-top skiing in winter.

The Hacienda Hotel Vira Vira sits on its own 57-acre private patch of forest along the shores of the Liucura River, in close proximity to the undeveloped Huerquehue and Villarrica national parks. An all-inclusive policy means all Relais & Châteaux–caliber meals and fine wines as well as excursions are bundled into the nightly rate.

Adventures in the surrounding parklands can be as soft or hard-core as you desire, but don’t miss the chance to hike San Sebastián trail in Huerquehue, where you’ll gawk at 38

some nine volcanoes and photograph jawdropping panoramas. Equine enthusiasts can ride on horseback through Villarrica, led by the former trainer of the Spanish Olympic equestrian team. For a true marriage of rugged relaxation, embark on more demanding hikes to nearby waterfalls and then soak in a private villa hot tub.

Excursion choices notwithstanding, now is the time to visit Pucón—before this breathtaking region inevitably veers onto the beaten path. (hotelviravira.com)

Stay at Hotel Magnolia (above) in Santiago and make daily outings to wine country.

Casablanca & Colchagua Valleys Chilean wine country has mastered a secret blend of New World flavor and Old World panache. Contemporary, high-design wineries neighbor colonial-inspired haciendas, while the terroir flourishes with century-old Carménère vines parallel to new-growth Sauvignon Blanc.

With seven principal regions less than three hours away from Chile’s capital city, Santiago, paving a personal trail can be both exhilarating and overwhelming. Thankfully, the experts at Upscape, a travel agency specializing in South American wine regions, can tailor guided trips

and be whisked away in the morning for a tour and lunch at family-run Viña Villard, followed by a tasting that includes Tangara Syrah 2014, the award-winning wine that’s branding this boutique vineyard an international superstar.

Farther south, Colchagua Valley is exactly what wine country dreams are made of. Begin with a glimpse of the traditional at Viña Casa Silva, a colonial estate with the oldest wine cellar in the valley, polo grounds, and two restaurants, including one serving country-style Chilean cuisine with views of the vineyards, the Andes Mountains, and the polo field.

Afterward, consummate a new-fashioned oenophile fantasy by checking into Clos Apalta Residence, a Relais & Châteaux microhotel of four casitas on the grounds of Viña Lapostolle, the design-forward wine estate of Alexandra Marnier-Lapostolle (of Grand Marnier fame). The winery’s cutting-edge fermentation facility, patterned after an expanding wine barrel, doubles as an architectural work of art. The biodynamically cultivated wines steer the cuisine at the on-site restaurant, with menus based upon varietals and vintages. Finally, Viña Lapostolle’s glass-andsteel cellar could be the coolest thing ever assembled in any wine country, anywhere. Built into the hillside six levels deep, it’s accessed through the tasting room’s colossal, frostedglass table, which houses a secret door and staircase below. (upscapetravel.com)

But such is the case in this ethereal land of saltand sand-encased canyons, cactus-speckled ravines, and magnificent mega craters.

Maximize this otherworldly setting by staying at Alto Atacama Desert Lodge & Spa, an ultra-luxurious yet understated lodge immersed in the rust-hued desert and offering more than 30 excursions to superlative swathes of the Atacama’s 40,000-square-mile grandeur.

All excursions, like the fabulous food and wine, are part of the nightly rate, so days can be as action-packed or carefree as you wish.

It’s recommended to stay at least four nights, devoting a day or two to acclimatizing to the altitude before completing some of the more challenging activities. After all, you wouldn’t want to miss “Salar de Pujsa y Monjes de la Pacana,” a full-day ascension to more than 15,000 feet along the Chile-Bolivia

Atacama Desert Until you witness it personally, it’s hard to believe the driest nonpolar desert in the world, the Atacama Desert, boasts some of Earth’s most colorful and diverse landscapes.

On those first days, opt for half-day trips to the Valley of the Moon, a locale central to the Atacama experience. During the morning “Quebrada de Kari” excursion, you’ll slip and slide down sand dunes to enter and traverse a narrow valley canyon encased by billions of salt crystals and mounds of ground salt. On a late-afternoon trek along the valley’s peaks, you’ll debate whether you’ve landed on Mars or the moon and then go into deeper thought with sunset cocktails organized by the folks at Alto. Come nightfall, consider opting for a third outing to various points of the desert for what is officially the best stargazing on the planet. (altoatacama.com) « PALMBEACHILLUSTRATED.COM | MAY 2018

A Star is Born

Simply put, Aston Martin’s glorious new DB11 Volante is the best luxury convertible in the world

By Howard Walker “Look, look, a shooting star!” It’s the second one we’ve spotted in the last half hour. At least, we think it’s a shooting star. It might just be a Delta 737 on its way to Atlanta.

Over there, that’s definitely Orion’s Belt. Or is it the Big Dipper? I always get them mixed up. But there’s the Milky Way. And that glowing star close to the moon? Has to be Venus.

This impromptu stargazing session comes courtesy of the newest and brightest star in the rapidly expanding Aston Martin universe, the achingly gorgeous DB11 Volante.

While a convertible, any convertible, will put sun on your face and wind in your follicles, it also makes the perfect sky-at-night viewing platform. Find a beach far away from city lights, crank back your seat, and look up at nature’s free celestial light show.

To stargaze in style, however, you’ll want, no crave, this newest Volante, the most visually spectacular open-top car on the market.

Typically, the coupe version of a model wins the beauty pageant. The Jaguar F-Type convertible is the ugly duckling compared to its stunning coupe sibling. Same with Porsche’s 911, Bentley’s Continental GT, and Mercedes’ AMG GT. 42

POWER FILE PRICE: From $219,581; $267,184 as tested ENGINE: 4.0-liter twin-turbo V-8 POWER: 503 hp TORQUE: 513 lb-ft TRANSMISSION: 8-speed automatic 0-60: 4.0 seconds TOP SPEED: 185 mph LENGTH/WIDTH: 187/76.8 inches WEIGHT: 4,123 pounds WHY WE LOVE IT: Because no other

With this Volante, Aston Martin has pulled off a design masterstroke. It’s equally capconvertible looks this lovely or feels this bespoke. tivating with the top up or down. And it’s prettier, if that’s possible, than the DB11 coupe.

The Volante’s delicate lines can be attributed to the fact that Aston designers stuck with a canvas top, having resisted the temptation to follow Mercedes with the SL, and now Ferrari with its new Portofino, in giving the car a folding metal roof. Having a cloth top also speeds up the lowering and raising process. Toggle the center-console switch and it takes a mere 14 seconds for that tight-fitting, eight-layer top to do its thing. It even works on the move at speeds up to 31 mph.

This ridiculous ride also comes with a new party trick guaranteed to leave onlookers slack-jawed, shaken, and stirred. At the touch of a key fob button, you can raise or lower the top remotely. Want to feel like 007 in one easy step? Hit the button as you walk nonchalantly toward the car and slide behind the wheel just as the top finishes powering back.

The view of the world from the driver’s seat of this DB11 Volante doesn’t get much better. You sit deep in the car, protected from the elements by that swept-back windshield. You’re ensconced in handstitched leather, with matte-finished, dark-wood detailing enhancing the interior’s bespoke feel.

Press the start button and the 4.0-liter twin-turbo V-8 erupts to life with a rather unruly authority reminiscent of a pit bull clearing its throat. It’s the same Mercedes AMG–sourced powerhouse used in the DB11 coupe, packing an impressive 503 horsepower and big-muscle 513 pound-feet of torque.

Extra body stiffening to compensate for chopping off the roof has added 242 pounds to the Volante’s waistline, compared to the V-8 coupe. But the extra bulk does nothing to dull the lightning-fast response of this alloy-bodied beauty. Standstill-to-60-mph acceleration is covered in four seconds, with the forward thrust continuing until the digital speedo needle is hovering over the 187-mph mark.

ZF’s terrific 8-speed automatic ensures you’re always in the right gear, and huge steel discs clamped by six-piston calipers haul you down from high velocities without drama.

While the Volante has the precision and agility to fire through curves at amazing speeds, it is as adept at playing the elegant, refined grand tourer, delivering a silky-smooth ride and putting few demands on driver and passenger.

Of course, the joy of this car is in relishing the athletic performance and nimble handling with the top folded and the sun on your face. And here Aston designers have excelled, managing the airflow around the cockpit so there’s next to no buffeting, battering, or excessive noise, even at triple-digit velocities.

To my mind, this is simply the best convertible on Earth, a car so visually intoxicating, so joyous to drive it justifies every one of the $219,581 it takes to acquire it. And you just can’t put a price on playing “Hunt the International Space Station” from the comfort of the driver’s seat. «

MESSAGE IN A BOTTLE Audrey Gruss plans a white-themed tea to celebrate her mother’s memory— and shine a light on an important issue

BY LORETTA GRANTHAM PHOTOGRAPHY BY JERRY RABINOWITZ

T

Palm Beach philanthropist Audrey Gruss hosted a ladies’ tea to celebrate the launch of Hope, a fragrance dedicated to her late mother. She decorated the table with white flowers and green accents in reference to the scent’s profile.

Floral designer Tom Mathieu handled the flower arrangements, which included gardenia, jasmine, tuberose, and lily of the valley, which Gruss had flown in from Holland.

Nestled within a small box wrapped in white and secured by a green satin ribbon is a young girl’s hope for her mother to be whole again. Fully present to experience every moment, whether it’s playing with her daughters or picking flowers from a field. And free of the crippling depression robbing her of life’s joys.

Today, 14 of those boxes sit atop china plates, surrounded by delicate white flowers—gardenia, jasmine, lily of the valley, and tuberose—that foretell what’s inside: Hope, a scent Audrey Gruss created to support her Hope for Depression Research Foundation. She’s hosting an elegant white tea for close friends at her oceanfront Palm Beach home to introduce the fragrance, which was inspired by her mother’s love

of white flowers and launched last fall at select Saks Fifth Avenue stores and online.

Gruss’ mother suffered for nearly 50 years from depression, a mood disorder that can include the inability to feel pleasure, a lack of interest in daily activities, fatigue, impaired focus, changes in eating and sleeping habits, and a loss of hope.

The mother of three (Gruss has two younger sisters) was named Hope.

“She was hospitalized for the first time when I was in high school,” Gruss recalls, adjusting a glistening vase of gardenias shortly before her guests arrive. A silver tower of white and green macarons awaits on the flower-lined table, along with heaping bowls of white Jordan almonds. “But back

“

Today’s tea brings together so many things my mother loved: friends, fragrance, and the white flowers that were so special to her.” —Audrey Gruss then, people called it a ‘nervous breakdown.’ Her illness never changed her ability to give love, but it was very difficult because she couldn’t do as much with us. She wasn’t fully present.”

Gruss’ mother, who began showing signs of depression in her 30s, eventually became stable after new medications, such as Prozac, were introduced in the 1980s. “There were many different medications over the years, and she became very well-balanced and able to function, but there were also side effects,” Gruss says. “She had a full life, but she never returned to being the talented and energetic mother we knew. The drugs never fully brought back her joy.”

Hope was 85 when she died in 2005, and Gruss started the Hope for Depression Research Foundation a year later. “It is my life’s work to help find a cure for this disease, and today’s tea brings together so many things my mother loved: friends, fragrance, and the white flowers that were so special to her, tied with a green ribbon,” she says. “The ribbon represents the crisp, green note that gives the fragrance its distinctive smell, like after a light rain.

Fresh and sweet and delicate.”

Each package of Hope, The Uplifting Fragrance, includes an insert with Gruss’ mother’s story, plus information about depression and its warning signs.

“It’s another way to get the message out and raise awareness,” says Gruss, a former advertising and marketing executive who’s married to New York financier Martin Gruss. In addition to Palm Beach, they have homes in New York City, Southampton, and London.

A hundred percent of net proceeds from the fragrance line, which includes two sizes of perfume spray, a hand and body creme, and a scented candle, go to the Hope for Depression Research Foundation. Through Gruss’ efforts, the organization formed the Depression Task Force in 2010 to unite pioneering scientists from top universities in the United States and Canada. Seeking to accelerate breakthrough research, task force members

share ongoing results in real time at a centralized data bank at the University of Michigan.

“Researchers typically work separately, make a discovery and publish it, and then present it at a conference,” says Gruss, who earned a bachelor of science degree in biology from Tufts University. “But this adds years to the process of other scientists learning about it. I wanted to foster collaboration, not competition, and the Depression Task Force does that. In order to receive funding, they have to work together and share ideas in real time, and this strategy has led to great strides in determining what causes the disease.”

If there’s one myth Audrey could dispel about depression, it’s that it is a disease, she says, not a character issue or a sad spell that can be overcome through force of will.

Tea guest Judith Giuliani, a registered nurse and wife of former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani, agrees. “The important thing to know is that depression is a medical illness, and help is available,” she says.

“I think it’s wonderful that Audrey has brought depression and related mood disorders to the forefront. She has pushed the discussion forward.”

044_TEAPARTY_0518.indd 49

Today’s intimate gathering, during which Gruss announced that Hope will be available at Palm Beach stores Mary Mahoney and Mildred Hoit, is among other events and public appearances Gruss has scheduled to promote the perfume and the reasons behind it: to honor her mother and raise awareness about depression.

“I’m pretty sure there’s not another company that’s done what Audrey is doing as far as tying fragrance to philanthropy,” says guest PALMBEACHILLUSTRATED.COM | MAY 2018

promoting the issue closest to her heart: the story of her beloved mother’s battle against mental illness.

“I think all of us here in Palm Beach, as well as in New York, are extremely proud of Audrey and what she’s doing,” says guest Mary Ourisman, former ambassador to Barbados and the Eastern Caribbean. “Depression is a very hard thing to deal with and not a subject everybody wants to talk about. But she has watched what it’s done to other people.”

Gruss is smiling this balmy afternoon as her friends sip tea and delight in coconut cake served on a table adorned with the four white flowers found in Hope, The Uplifting Fragrance. She shares with her guests the journey of creating the scent and how it will raise money for ongoing research.

Because of her efforts to remove the stigma of depression and bring awareness to the disease, perhaps many others—those suffering like her mother once did—will experience happiness, too. «

People can be afraid to talk about difficult things like depression, but [Audrey is] putting a bright light on it.” —Susan Meyer

Susan Meyer, a former cosmetics executive and wife of investment firm founder and polo enthusiast Joe Meyer. “It’s incredibly difficult for a private individual to create a fragrance and get it out there, from grassroots to retail, especially when the motive is about giving back, not about business.

“But Audrey has done it so elegantly. People can be afraid to talk about difficult things like depression, but she’s putting a bright light on it. A gorgeous white light, like sometimes people talk about in a spiritual sense. White light, white flowers, white tea: It all ties together beautifully. And if I’m going to buy [a] fragrance anyway, and I like several options, why wouldn’t I choose the one that’s helping other people?”

With her corporate executive skills and understanding of marketing, Gruss has steered countless donations to education, science, and the cultural arts through her role as president of the Audrey and Martin Gruss Foundation. Over the last 20 years, the couple has given, and raised, hundreds of millions of dollars for numerous causes.

Empress 1908 Gin was infused with extract from an exotic flowering legume from Thailand known as the Butterfly Pea, which is a natural indicator of pH and is what gives the gin its memorable blue hue. Once the acidic tonic water comes into play, the change in pH causes the drink to morph from blue to yellow instantaneously.

This round consists of Coke spheres submerged in Bacardi Silver. To make the spheres, the Science Center team blended Coca-Cola with sodium alginate and slowly dropped it into a calcium carbonate bath. This produced a thin, gelatinous layer around the Coke that then allowed the spheres to be transferred into the rum for a new twist on a classic drink.

In this scientific take on a popular cocktail, the hot siphon infuser blends Tito’s Vodka with fresh cranberries and limes. The heat causes some of the alcohol to evaporate, adding air pressure to the pot until the pressure exceeds the force of gravity, shooting the alcohol up the stem and into the infusion chamber.

Because the alcohol is heated, the natural sugars and flavors of the fruit can more easily imbue the vodka, resulting in an out-of-thisworld taste.

Cottage Jeanne and David Daniel transform an historic bungalow into a modern island abode, with awardwinning results

BY JUDY MARTEL PHOTOGRAPHY BY ANDY FRAME

Some people take a distant view of home renovation, limiting themselves to construction progress reports and budgetary calculations.

Others, like Jeanne Daniel, get excited about the hands-on creation of a personal and artistic vision.

When Jeanne and her husband, David, purchased a 1919 bungalow on Seaspray Avenue, one of Palm Beach’s oldest platted lanes, she expected to end up with an enchanting and efficient midtown home for the couple and their two grown sons.

What she didn’t foresee was the painstaking reconstruction would

While the Daniels had to tend to quite a few structural issues, they strived to maintain the street-side exterior integrity while opening up the interior floor plan. They also enclosed a screened porch at the front of the house and took a decidedly contemporary approach to the decor, adding pops of bold color throughout.

win the Preservation Foundation of Palm Beach’s Polly Earl Award for small-scale renovations. The prestigious accolade, named for a late executive director of the foundation, honors work that maintains historical authenticity.

The two-and-a-half-year renovation of the landmarked cottage was more than the Daniels initially wanted to take on, but the result was well worth it. David says when their architect told them the foundation was considering their home for the award, it was an unexpected thrill. “We didn’t even know about it when we started the project,” he adds.

The Daniels’ journey from tourists to homeowners in a beloved vacation spot is one most converts will understand. Occasional comments along the lines of, “Wouldn’t it be great to live here?” turn into idle looking before snowballing into a passionate search for the perfect property.

Both Jeanne and David also had family ties to Palm Beach: David’s late great-aunt, renowned interior designer Polly Jessup, maintained a home on the island, and Jeanne’s parents lived in nearby Jupiter.

The couple’s intermittent visits gave way to annual trips nearly 15 years ago, when their oldest son began lacrosse spring training in Orlando. Instead of dropping him off and returning to their home in New Canaan, Connecticut, they came farther south, to Palm Beach.

“

It’s easy to fall in love with the ‘Sea’ streets, with the charming architecture and variety of styles.”—Jeanne Daniel

“We stayed at The Brazilian Court hotel and began coming back every year,” says David. “That’s how we discovered this area of town.

We took our bicycles all over and walked to dinner.”

Jeanne explains that those explorations included the delightful trio of streets just north of Royal Palm Way: Seaview, Seaspray, and Seabreeze. “It’s easy to love the ‘Sea’ streets, with the charming architecture and variety of styles,” she says.

“And then there are those sublime, dinky ‘for sale’ signs in front of these cute little houses,” adds David, a consultant and board member at the executive search and leadership advisory firm Spencer Stuart, where he also served as CEO from 2001 to 2012.

Still, they resisted the urge to own immediately and continued on with their busy lives. Then they were hit with a harsh Connecticut winter, and their hazy fantasies of island homeownership took firm shape. They hired a broker.

Midtown—close to shopping, restaurants, and the beach—was the only area they considered. Having previously renovated four homes, Jeanne relished the artistic process and was open to a fixer-upper, but David had other ideas. “David said ‘absolutely no projects,’” recalls Jeanne. The first property they bid on was just up the street from their current home on Seaspray and only needed some updating. They lost out on that house, but the buying bug had bit hard. In April 2014 they purchased the bungalow, despite the fact that it needed extensive renovations. The previous owner had landmarked it in 2013, which meant they had to take extra care to maintain its historic status.

Jeanne was undaunted. “Every house we owned prior to this one was a project,” she says, and she had managed each of those renovations.

058_cottage_0518.indd 61

Part of her success in this area can be traced to her design background in product development. Her previous careers included stints as a home furnishings buyer for Macy’s and an executive vice president of merchandising and marketing at Tiffany & Co. She’s also the founder of Bella Tu, a luxury resort women’s clothing collection inspired by hand-embellishment techniques from India.

“Because I have some experience with projects, I downloaded the floor plan, took out my white pen, and did some sketching,” says Jeanne. They hired Palm Beach architect Gene Pandula, who then recommended Sloane Construction. “We never even interviewed anyone else,” she adds.

The inevitable surprises that come with any renovation project were early and expensive. “That first day (of reconstruction) I’ll never forget,” says Jeanne. “I was in New York City on business, and when the phone call came in from Palm Beach I was thinking, ‘Yay, we’re breaking ground!’ Instead, it was ‘Houston, we have a problem.’”

The construction crew had discovered that the home was unstable and one side was sinking by several inches. Remedying it required 80 pilings and a new foundation—all of which had to be completed while the home was still standing because, under landmark rules, it could not be torn down.

Outside, the couple’s major improvements included removing the backyard pool in the 6,000-square-foot lot and crafting a master suite

“

There’s the sense that we’re living in a garden, surrounded by green; like we’re living outdoors.”—David Daniel

The new front sunroom (above) takes advantage of the ample natural light.

Outside, the Daniels removed the swimming pool and expanded the home’s floor plan. They also connected a former garage-turned-cabana to the main residence and transformed it into the master bedroom (opposite page).

by connecting the former pool cabana to the house. They kept the old window configurations in front, given their unique shape, but incorporated the screened-in porch as part of the inside living area.

By clever design, the charming exterior maintains its unassuming, early twentieth–century appearance, while the interior opens up into an airy yet comfortable area, with white walls and pale wood floors offset by splashes of primary-colored furnishings and art. Entering the living room of the lightfilled, contemporary bungalow, it’s difficult to imagine the home’s pre-renovation dark interior and somewhat choppy layout.

Inside, they took down interior walls to redesign and open up the layout. On the cramped second floor, they created soaring space by raising the ceilings up to the roof line. They added a bathroom for each of the bedrooms, bringing the total from one and a half to four and a half.

“I had a PowerPoint presentation of the home, room by room,” says Jeanne. “Because there aren’t a lot of rooms, we had to think about how to use space.” She adds that limited storage is a blessing in their new island life. The home is easy to keep clean and clutter-free. “We had to think about how we wanted to live.”

When it came to furnishings, Jeanne knew she didn’t want the same traditional style of her New Canaan home.

“It wouldn’t feel right here,” she says. She brought only a few items from her northern home, but among the most meaningful to the couple is a three-paneled canvas screen turned master bedroom headboard that once belonged to “Aunt Polly” Jessup.

Crowning the bedroom, a delicate crystal chandelier drops from a ceiling crafted from dark wood planks. Jeanne found the material after she installed the pale wood floors throughout the home and loved it so much she was inspired to install it on the bedroom’s cathedral ceilings, beautifully highlighting the elevated angles.

The living room is furnished in a peaceful white and soft gray, accented with yellow and turquoise in the area rug, throw pillows, and art. Jeanne added neon yellow Milo Baughman chairs she found at The Silver Fund on Worth Avenue. Many of the furnishings are locally sourced.

The result is a stunning example of how to marry historical allure and modern conveniences. The home feels spacious yet welcoming. Its former pokiness is replaced with an easy flow. Light pours in through uncovered windows that frame the dense foliage in the yard.

“There’s the sense that we’re living in a garden, surrounded by green; like we’re living outdoors,” says David. “That’s how I feel about the entire island. It’s like a big, beautiful garden.”

The couple is at peace in their new bungalow, so much so that they sold their home in Connecticut and have made Palm Beach their fulltime residence, with a summer escape on Cape Cod. “It’s very serene here,” says Jeanne. “The house has a really good vibe, and the sense of lightness makes you feel happy.” «

The Dish (opposite page): King crab wontons with black truffle, crunchy garlic, pickled peppers, and ginger ponzu The Pairing: Planet Oregon Pinot Noir, Willamette Valley, Oregon, 2015 “This wine is made by Soter Vineyards, with a commitment to sustainable farming and natural production,” says Samson. “It has a savory, soy-like quality that will go perfectly with this Asian-style dish. The black cherry and raspberry flavors will balance the peppers and complement the sweet crab, and the wine’s fresh acidity will make you crave another sip.”

The Dish: Peanut butter and banana semifreddo with a vanilla cake, coconut caramel, and peanut brittle The Pairing: Campbell’s Tokay Rutherglen, Australia NV “Campbell’s Tokay has fresh raisin fruit, luscious honey, and is backed by a subtle oak character. This wine is warm and inviting and complements the sweet flavors of the peanut butter and banana semifreddo. The hints of dried apricots and malty notes dance perfectly with coconut caramel.”

The Dish: Buffalo alligator with ‘nduja hot sauce, buttermilk miso, pickled celery, and Florida blue cheese The Pairing: C.H. Berres Riesling Kabinett, Ürziger Würzgarten, Mosel, Germany, 2012 “Ürziger Würzgarten is home to blazing red slate soils and insanely steep hillsides. This wine is full of stone fruits, such as peaches and apricots, that will pair well with the blue cheese. There’s a touch of residual sugar that will cool your taste buds after the ‘nduja hot sauce. It’s an exotic wine for an exotic dish.”

Chef Blair Wilson’s love affair with the kitchen began in college, when he did catering work at a historical farm near his home in Alexandria, Virginia. After studying at the Culinary Institute of America, he made his way down to South Florida, where he earned widespread praise as the executive chef at the Surfcomber Hotel on Miami Beach. Since the summer of 2017, he’s blessed Delray diners with his culinary prowess as the executive chef at Max’s Harvest.

A South Florida native, Lauren Samson studied hospitality and beverage management at Florida International University before coming to West Palm’s The Blind Monk in 2012. “I regard wine as a lifelong study,” she says, “and there’s always something new to learn.

I try to choose wines that represent their region and tell a story. It’s all about translating your knowledge to the customer.”

The Dish: Spanish clams and octopus with chorizo, sweet corn, and a saffron tomato sauce The Pairing: La Rioja Alta Gran Reserva 904, Rioja, Spain, 2005 “Made predominately from the Tempranillo grape, the Gran Reserva 904 is an exceptional example of classic Rioja,” explains Felix. “This wine displays notes of dried cranberries, ripe red cherries, and red plums. Hints of vanilla and dill complement the sweetness of the corn and the savory saffron tomato sauce, while notes of brown baking spice offset the spicy chorizo.”

The Dish: Grilled local pumpkin swordfish with julienne zucchini and squash, basmati rice, sweet corn, and a fresh tarragon beurre blanc The Pairing: Couly-Dutheil Blanc de Franc, Loire Valley, France, 2016 “This fresh yet complex wine is both rare and unusual—it’s Cabernet Franc made as a white wine.

Aromas of garden herbs, green bell pepper, and acacia flower are prominent on the nose, while flavors of apple, pink grapefruit, and Meyer lemon come through on the palate. The herbaceous quality pairs perfectly with the zucchini and squash as well as the sauce, and the citrus components balance the slightly sweet and meaty texture of the pumpkin swordfish.”

The Dish: Roasted pear and four cheese sacchetti in a black truffle cream sauce The Pairing: Craggy Range Kidnappers Vineyard Chardonnay, Hawkes Bay, New Zealand, 2016 “This unique and elegant Chardonnay displays aromas of apple, ripe yellow pear, and juicy apricot on the nose; coriander, crème fraîche, and minerals are evident on the palate. The stone fruit characteristics are a great match for the roasted pears in this dish. The slightly creamy texture of the wine enhances the richness of the cheese, while the minerality complements the black truffle cream sauce.”

PIPER JONES

Jeremy Bearman is a classically trained chef with a background in French cuisine. The turning point of his career was his tenure at Rouge Tomate in Manhattan, where he was forced to cook without any butter or cream, all while refraining from deep-frying. “It was challenging and rewarding,” he says, “but I learned it was possible to produce flavorful food that was also healthy and nutritious.” The restaurant was awarded a Michelin star one year after opening. In mid-2016, he moved to South Florida with his family and opened Oceano Kitchen in Lantana the following January.

Ervin Machado is the beverage director (or vino consigliere, as he prefers to be called) for the Louie Bossi restaurants in Fort Lauderdale and Boca Raton. He spent four years with Morton’s Steakhouse, where he helped open new locations in West Palm Beach, Mexico, and Washington, D.C. He has studied winemaking at Casillero del Diablo in Chile and at the legendary Bertani winery in Italy.

The Dish: Nantucket bay scallop ceviche with blood orange, datil pepper, avocado, kaffir lime, and cancha The Pairing: Domaine Huet Vouvray Le Haut-Lieu Sec 2009 “Every time I think seafood, I think Chenin Blanc, and the best versions come from France’s Loire Valley.

When it comes to Vouvray, Domaine Huet always takes center stage; these biodynamic wines age well and retain freshness in the bottle. This wine has the slight sweetness you would expect from a Sec (off-dry version), but still has gripping acids that create a bridge between the wine and the ceviche. I’d describe it as an escalator of acidity.”

The Dish: Smoked kielbasa with smashed sunchoke, baby mustards, and pickled green strawberries The Pairing: Cantina Rotaliana di Mezzolombardo Clesurae Teroldego Rotaliano, Trentino, Italy “I don’t know a pairing that’s more perfect than Teroldego and smoked meat,” says Machado. “You get black fruit and tobacco on the nose of this wine, and the great structure and high acid match perfectly with the smokiness of the sausage. No wonder people in Trentino have been combining them for centuries.”

This one is high in alcohol but not heavy. It’s bone dry and allows the sweetness of the squash to really shine. The acidity cuts through the fatty stracciatella and cleanses the palate. In the finish, you’ll enjoy mild nuances of brioche, almonds, and minerals.” «

Taste BRUNCH

Costa Palm Beach is delivering a welcome wake-up call to the monotonous bottomless mimosa– and eggs benedict–fueled brunch. Chef David Valencia’s Sunday Funday offerings highlight bold flavors, molecular gastronomy techniques, and communal plates—because socializing is one brunch tradition worth keeping.

Trade that mimosa for a cocktail pitcher, such as the tangy Costa Paloma. And branch out beyond eggs benedict with the highly sharable shakshuka, a North African recipe of eggs cooked in a skillet with tomato sauce and served with house-made naan. Valencia, a native of Colombia, incorporates his signature spice blend of fennel, coriander, and cumin, plus a trio of peppers: sweet Spanish piquillos, mild espelettes, and smoky, robust Aleppos to build depth of flavor.

Valencia’s experience working in Michelin-starred kitchens shows in his interpretation of shrimp and grits, which includes a perfectly gooey poached egg, achieved in an hourlong, 63-degree sous vide bath.

Crispy chorizo, black garlic, and a creamy, cloud-like Parmesan emulsion (made possible by nitrogen) round out the dish. Brunch will never be the same again. (561-429-8456, costapb.com) —Liz Petoniak

GEORGE ANDREWS

FORCE DE

In addition to authentic French baked goods, Autret offers avocado toast, croque monsieur, cheese and charcuterie plates, quality coffee, wine, and beer.

A true taste of France can be found at the industrial-meets-tropical-chic space inside Loïc Bakery Café Bar in West Palm Beach. The newly opened bakery owes its name to Loïc Autret, a chef hailing from the Champagne region in France whose passion permeates each of his made-from-scratch pastries. His impeccable croissants and baguettes will evoke fond memories of Parisian boulangeries, but his signature items—quiche nestled in a croissant crust, a white chocolate pistachio croissant, and a gooey chocolate cookie called 52 Shades of Loïc—are real originals. PBI chatted with the charismatic chef about his approach to this culinary art form. (561-570-1425, bakeryloic.com) —L.P.

PBI: What piqued your interest in baking?

Autret: Growing up in France, there was a bakery on every corner. I learned what makes a bakery successful is the signature of the baker. A croissant’s shape and flavor is a signature of that bakery, and it will be different at another bakery because they’re made from scratch.

What are the differences between baking in France and in Florida?

Gluten. In Paris, the weather is a bit drier and cooler. Even if it’s humid, it’s not as humid as Florida. To make a croissant, you need to adjust the gluten or it will become elastic. Here, the same recipe [from France] does not work because there’s too much gluten in the flour.

What is your favorite kitchen tool?

My dough sheeter. It allows me to flatten the dough so quickly.

What’s in the future for the bakery?

My goal is to have dancing and music on Sundays. I want to make people happy before they start work the next day. One day, I hope to do orders for birthdays and special parties on Palm Beach.

What’s the most rewarding part of baking?

When someone gives me a compliment, I know I’ve touched them. I have people who say this [croissant] reminds them of one they had in France 10 years ago. That for me is a gift, that I changed a big moment for people by eating my food. I try to know everybody and make [the bakery] like a family.

For me, it’s never been about the money. When you make food for What is Autret’s favorite ingredimoney, it doesn’t taste the same ent? find out at palmbeachillus as when you make it for love.

new Lake Worth eatery and game room. Situated next to Social House inside the co-working space’s former kitchen and bar area, the restaurant supplies a menu of more than 20 games, including Cards Against Humanity, Yahtzee, and Jenga, paired with beer, wine, and inventive tapas.

All plates pose a triple threat: deviled eggs three ways; a trio of lemon spreads served in petite jars; and giant egg raviolis with thrice the sauce for Sunday brunch. Three dips accompany addictive grilled cheese fingers, a cross between churros and fried mozzarella sticks. And for dessert, 3 of Hearts presents sweets from LoveWell Kitchen’s Anna Kaetterhenry, such as

SHAKSHUKA FOR BRUNCH Q & A WITH CHEF DAVID VALENCIA ON COSTA'S POPULAR BRUNCH DISH.

BY SAMUEL THORNHILL Q. We're starting to hear a lot of buzz about the "Shakshuka", but what exactly is it? It's one of the most versatile dishes from the Mediterranean and Middle Eastern regions. It’s an amazing dish composed of tomatoes, peppers, chilis, fresh herbs, spices, and eggs baked in a cast iron pan.

Q. Flavors of the Mediterranean take center stage at Costa. How do you spice up your version of the Shakshuka? As if you can’t already tell, I love bold flavors.

For our Shakshuka, I use a custom blend of smoked Spanish paprika, fresh ground cumin seed, coriander seed, espelette pepper, and Aleppo pepper–which I mix in house.

Q. What are your other popular Brunch dishes that guests are raving about? My take on shrimp and grits is to die for. Blackened grilled shrimp, creamy Parmesan white grits, a Parmesan emulsion packed with flavor bombs, a 63 Degree Celsius Egg (the perfect egg), black garlic purée umami, and of course, crispy chorizo. To sop it all up you get some amazing grilled country bread seasoned with Za’atar and fresh parsley.

Glass Half Full

PBI’s wine and spirits editor examines the history and science behind the countless choices in drinking vessels

BY MARK SPIVAK

Ever since wine has existed, people have struggled with the problem of how to drink it. Members of royalty never had to worry, since jewel-encrusted goblets were common from 500 A.D. onward. Commoners were more likely to drink out of a hollowedout animal horn. This was a functional solution but not an aesthetic one, as all the wine had to be consumed in one shot—the preferred method for Vikings, but not as appealing for social drinkers.

By the eighteenth century, glass goblets with stems had become popular. This period coincides with the rise of the Austrian glassblowing family Riedel. Their market presence grew during the Industrial Revolution under the leadership of Josef Riedel the Elder (1816-94). Today the eleventh-generation company, headed by Maximilian Riedel, has established itself as the premier manufacturer of wine glasses in the world.

Riedel subscribes to the Bauhaus philosophy that form follows function. They theorize that every beverage has certain aromas and flavors that are enhanced by a wine glass with a unique shape.

Thus, the Sommeliers Collection features 32 types of glasses for wine varieties as diverse as Bordeaux and Burgundy Grand Cru, Alsace, Zinfandel, and Sauternes, as well as spirits such as XO Cognac, grappa, and tequila. Prices for the Sommeliers Collection range from $50-$120 per stem; if you do the math, there’s little doubt it’s good to be Riedel.

Does a wine and spirits connoisseur really need 32 separate classes of wine glasses? Riedel insists the answer is yes, and they vigorously back up their claims. In addition to the shape of the glass intensifying the wine’s characteristics, they contend that different glass designs deliver flavors to certain parts of the tongue in a specific fashion. According to them, each glass allows wine to target taste buds to form a flavor pattern.

PALM BEACH ILLUSTRATED

088-POUR-0518.indd 88

4/3/18 1:40 PM

To illustrate this theory, the company conducts a series of tastings around the world. At these events, wines are presented side by side in both Riedel and competing stemware. Most tasters come away with the impression that Riedel glasses yield a superior tasting experience. Skeptics criticize the results on the notion that they are predictive, that expectations are orchestrated by the person moderating the tasting, and that participants are heavily influenced by those around them.

There’s pushback from the scientific community, as well.

Professor Linda Bartoshuk, the leading researcher on the physiology of taste, asserts that the tongue map doesn’t exist. According to her, people are born with vastly disparate quantities of taste receptors on their tongues, and this accounts for their ability to perceive flavor. If nature has shortchanged you, according to Bartoshuk’s research, a fancy wine glass won’t help.

Given this controversy, what’s a wine drinker to do? Here’s a modest proposal: Purchase some glasses with a large bowl that gently tapers at the top (known as a Burgundy balloon). This glass will allow

the aromas to focus toward the nose in a distinct but not aggressive fashion. If you must, keep a set of expensive stemware on hand to use when company comes. (I own a number of fancy wine glasses; like most people, I rarely use them.) If you taste everything from the same glass, you’ll have a basis for comparison that will deepen over time.

While I don’t have any scientific evidence to back up this claim, neither does anyone else. «

OASIS

Toronto-based interior designer Harvey Wise envisioned a relaxing home away from home when decorating his Palm Beach apartment. While this pied-à-terre boasts a similar clean, tailored approach as his Toronto dwelling, Wise wanted to infuse it with a modern island style befitting a twenty-first-century condo by the sea. “The concept for the apartment was to combine a classic Palm Beach aesthetic with contemporary elements, overlaid with a beachy feel,” Wise explains. “I was inspired by British Colonial influences I had seen in town as well as the more contemporary hotels and restaurants I frequented.” He incorporated dark espresso–stained woods throughout the space and focused on light upholstery, as expressed in the custom sofas and the side chairs sourced from Crate and Barrel. The simple yet sophisticated bar cart from Patina Antiques has all the trappings of vacation libations, including multiple odes to Palm Beach’s signature flora.

WATERFRONT PROPERTIES MATRIARCH SPOTLIGHT For Joan, It’s Always Been About Growth

PROMOTION

Joan-PBI.indd 2-3

Whether her childhood garden, a powerhouse femaleowned business, or the expertise of the agents she now mentors, cultivating organic growth has always been Joan Thomson’s thing.

When the Founder and matriarch of South Florida real estate juggernaut Waterfront Properties was ten years old, she helped her dad plant vegetables. Joan sold any extra produce in the neighborhood and was allowed to keep the profits. This would be the first of several inspired entrepreneurial moves on her part.

Having taught school for a time, one of her best moves was obtaining her real estate license in 1969, at age 37.

Her seemingly unrelated teaching experience played a pivotal role in Joan’s early success, and in shaping Waterfront Properties’ approach to luxury real estate sales.

Joan says thinking like a teacher led her to “do real estate in a different and quite profitable way.”

Just as she did when teaching, Joan focused on mastering the subject matter. “I didn’t want to show properties in unfamiliar areas, so I focused exclusively on north county waterfront. I studied it until I knew it.” Her best move was renaming the company Waterfront Properties, leaving no doubt about her commitment. Becoming even more hyper-specialized, from 1970 to 2010, Joan concentrated exclusively on Jupiter Island estates.

As Waterfront Properties grew and hired new agents, they too specialized in specific geographic areas and communities. Known throughout the industry as “farming,” this term harkens back to Joan’s earliest days gardening with her father. “The seeds are our knowledge of the markets and their properties. The more we grow that knowledge, the better equipped we are to support sellers and buyers.” You reap what you sow.

Today, Waterfront Properties employs nearly 100 agents, working from strategically located offices in Stuart, Jupiter, North Palm Beach, Palm Beach and Delray Beach, Florida.

About 20% of these agents remain hyper-specialized in territories from Boca Raton to Stuart. Waterfront’s masterful use of Internet technology allows agents direct contact with thousands of prospective buyers, necessitating dozens of

professional agents – undistracted by the demands of a dedicated territory – to follow up on the sheer volume of buyer leads Waterfront receives on a near hourly basis.

This balancing of resources to meet all the needs of buyers and sellers formed the core of what has become known as the “Waterfront Way.” Joan’s son Rob Thomson joined the company in the mid 80s. Joan credits Rob’s gifts as a teacher and marketer as being key to Waterfront’s rise. “He’s great at training and thinking outside the box.” The ‘box’ is the set of rules the real estate industry has doggedly stood by out of loyalty to “tradition.” Rob doesn’t do things the way they’ve always been done.

In 2010, Joan stepped away from Waterfront to care for Rob’s father during his fight with cancer. She turned over the day-to-day management of the company to Rob and, in 2017, made him the sole owner.

Now at 86, and relieved of the responsibilities of daily oversight, Joan is “down” to about 50 hours a week after decades of 70-and-80-hour workweeks. She’s putting her newfound time to good use. In many ways she’s back where she began, teaching. She’s also freeing up Rob, allowing him to concentrate on marketing and technology.

Working with agents on contracts and negotiations for years, recently Joan began closely mentoring about a dozen agents. “It would be a shame not to share the knowledge I gained over 40 years in the business,” she said. “Rob does an incredible job supplying our agents with the tools to be successful. I try to help them fine-tune their contract negotiating skills and all the other aspects of working through the transaction. This helps Rob – he doesn’t need to do it – but it really helps me, too.

I enjoy doing it.”

She should. Joan Thomson is helping people grow.

Zen Moments

Karesansui, the Japanese dry landscapes known as Zen gardens, became prominent in fifteenth-century temples to assist in the meditative practice of self-reflection and renewal. While the scene of arranged rocks in gravel induces tranquility, the true mental repose lies in the gardening or raking.

“When your hands are busy doing something mundane, your mind has a chance to meditate,” explains Heather Grzybek, garden curator at Morikami Museum and Japanese Gardens. Here, she shares tips for creating a relaxing retreat at home. Delray Beach (561-495-0233, morikami.org) PICK AN INTIMATE LOCATION. Zen gardens are typically laid out in an enclosed area, like a courtyard, to frame the space. A secluded corner of a yard or patio makes for a peaceful environment, too.

KEEP IT SIMPLE. The minimal design aims to unload the mind of material possessions. For a traditional take, install filter cloth, gravel, and an odd number of boulders, such as Florida fieldstones, to avoid symmetry. Grzybek recommends ferns, moss, and mondo grass for a lush, “wet” quality.

ADD VISUAL INTEREST. Minimal doesn’t need to mean barren. In later eras, “flat gardens” incorporated pagodas, water basins, and lanterns.

Mexican beach pebbles can provide texture, and adding a rain chain to a gutter can allow water to trickle down from the roof.

From knickerbockers and tweed caps to the tech-forward designs of today, golf attire has evolved significantly over the past 100 years. Increasingly, the fashion needle is moving toward mirroring sleek, contemporary menswear thanks to brands like Greyson Clothiers, which is operating a pop-up shop on Worth Avenue through May and then by appointment until October 1. In addition to the collection’s signature polished pieces, shoppers will also find a collaboration with Jones golf bags and custom leather goods, as well as putters from Lamb Crafted.

Motivated by how men want to dress today, Greyson founder Charlie Schaefer left his position as senior vice president of design at Ralph Lauren to launch his own line. “I feel like the game of golf was geared to looking a very specific way, which eliminates personality,” Schaefer says.

“I wanted to remove that barrier.”

The collection excels in multi-functionality, using the bespoke details of menswear and silky-smooth Italian fabrics to achieve a unique approach to athleisure. Pants can easily be dressed up with a sport coat, and hoodies look as cool at the gym as they do at the course. Here, Greyson ambassador, pro golfer, and Jupiter resident Morgan Hoffman shares his top picks for transitioning from a morning on the links to an afternoon on the town. (561-855-8588, greysonclothiers.com)

“

This is a very simple, classy outfit you could wear out. It doesn’t look like it just came off the course.”

Eastern medicine has lauded the health benefits of turmeric and ginger for centuries, and for good reason. Turmeric boasts many anti-inflammatory and antiaging properties, while ginger is known to aid digestion, reduce nausea, and fight free radicals. Before taking this powerful supplement duo, consult with a doctor and ensure the source is credible. “In America, sadly, supplements are not regulated,” says Palm Beacher David H. Gilmour, founder of Fiji Water and Wakaya Perfection. “We’ve discovered turmeric [on the shelves of a pharmacy] was rice flour and food coloring. You really have to do your research.”

The pursuit of purity and health is what led Gilmour to begin bottling Fiji Water in 1996 (he has since sold the company) and launch Wakaya Perfection, a collection of superfoods grown on the 2,200-acre, organically certified Fijian island Wakaya. His turmeric and pink ginger (both $175 for 250 capsules) are harvested by hand and grown from seeds dating back to nineteenth-century China and India.

Wakaya’s virgin volcanic soil and pure rainwater also account for the ginger and turmeric’s unparalleled potency.

In their powder form, ginger and turmeric are ideal for seasoning food and brewing tea. In addition to the capsules, Wakaya Perfection sells powder directly to consumers. At 87 years old, Gilmour takes two capsules of both turmeric and ginger each day and says he “feels better now than when I was 60.” His advice? “Follow a regimen. It’s not something you can dart in and out of. You have to do it seven days a week. Health is your wealth.” (wakayaperfection.com.fj)

Think vegans can’t enjoy ceviche? Think again. Local wellness guru Jules Aron shares a plant-based alternative in her book Nourish & Glow: Naturally Beautifying Foods and Elixirs (Countryman Press, $20). “This delicious riff on the traditional Peruvian dish of fresh seafood cured in citrus juices uses young coconut at its base,” says Aron. “The delicate coconut meat makes a remarkable substitute for the real deal.” (julesaron.com)

Start the day at Momentim, a 45-minute cycling workout that will leave riders drenched in sweat. For full-body toning, opt for La Barre, an hour-long sculpting class that incorporates moves from Pilates, ballet, and yoga.

Scoop the coconut meat out of shells and rinse well. Cut the coconut flesh in small squares and transfer to a medium mixing bowl. Add the citrus juices and toss to mix. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes. Prepare the green onions, bell peppers, chili pepper, parsley, cilantro, and sea salt and gently mix with the marinated coconut. Allow to marinate another 30 minutes in the refrigerator. To serve, divide the ceviche between bowls, drizzle with olive oil, and sprinkle with freshly ground black pepper.

RECOVERY HEALTHCARE

Balance MIND GAMES

THE HAIR GRAFTING/TRANSPLANT PROCESS Hair loss occurs in more than 60% of men and in approximately 10% of women. Baldness is often blamed on poor circulation to the scalp, vitamin deficiencies, effect of hormones, dandruff and even excessive hat wearing. All of these theories have been disproved.

The hair transplant surgery is performed to restore hair to areas of the scalp that are bald or have thinning hair.

The surgeon cleanses your scalp and numbs the area to the back of your head. Your doctor will choose one of two methods for the transplant: follicular unit strip surgery (FUSS) or follicular unit extraction (FUE).

FUE can be done in a single or several sittings. It is a manual and time taking process, but gives very natural results and leaves behind no linear scars. With FUSS, the surgeon removes a 6 to 10 inch strip of skin from the back of your head, which is used as donor for the precious hair follicles, and the scalp is carefully stitched together.

It’s normal for the transplanted hair to fall out two to three weeks after the procedure, as this makes way for new hair growth. Most people will see about 90% new hair growth 6-9 months after surgery.

While brain-training apps and websites won’t reverse symptoms of Alzheimer’s or help you recite the periodic table, studies have shown certain exercises and games can improve cognitive thinking and may alleviate stress and even depression. These three brain boot camps are designed to sharpen the mind. —Carla Evans

COGNIFIT

This app evaluates and enhances cognition with patented scientific technology aimed at improving more than 26 skills like memory, planning, and response time. The key is neuroplasticity, or the brain’s ability to change and reorganize itself by forming new neural connections. A favorite is “Reaction Field,” wherein the player taps moles of a specific color as they pop up from holes in the ground. The app also gives recommendations based on results and progress, and lets you know which cognitive skills could benefit from additional drills. (cognifit.com, $20 a month or $180 annual)

MINDSPARKE

A brain-training website that can raise your IQ? MindSparke’s Brain Fitness Pro claims it can accomplish just that, while also boosting memory and mental stamina. The program is based on research from the JaeggiBuschkuehl dual n-back task, a memory test. Studies have found that those exercises enrich fluid intelligence (the ability to solve novel problems). While it may sound daunting, the site is incredibly user-friendly. Upon joining, you set up an account and can then log in from any computer or via Facebook. (mindsparke.com, $20 a month or $160 annual)

ELEVATE

If you can’t remember names or phone numbers, or just want to keep the brain active, this award-winning app can help with more than 40 mini brain games and daily challenges derived from areas you choose to improve, such as memory or focus. As you get better, the games get tougher. Elevate’s interface is bare-bones and easy to use, and the games are short and fun, which makes exercising your brain seem like child’s play.

The Chamber Music Society of Palm Beach is offering South Florida classical music fans two opportunities to hear the Grammy Award–winning Harlem Quartet in concert.

First, on May 6, catch a free performance, presented by the West Palm Beach Arts and Entertainment District, at the Brightline West Palm Beach Station beginning at 3 p.m. The following evening, May 7, the quartet will appear at Rosarian Academy in West Palm Beach for a full program, including “A Night in Tunisia” by Dizzy Gillespie and “The Girl from Ipanema” by Antônio Carlos Jobim. Tickets cost $30 for adults and $5 for students. Known for its versatility and commitment to diversity, the Harlem Quartet has made great strides in its mission to share classical music with wider audiences around the world. Taking its name from the Harlem Renaissance, the quartet is little more than a decade old but has already toured across South Africa, played alongside the likes of Itzhak Perlman and Paquito D’Rivera, and performed for such dignitaries as Barack and Michelle Obama.

ARMARIUM COURTESY OF

Trisha Gregory has a passion for bringing the world of high fashion to the masses. A frequent visitor to Palm Beach, Gregory honed her public relations skills at Emilia Fanjul Communications, where she planned countless VIP events for national brands and retailers. Afterward, she spent nearly a decade as the senior director of public relations for Salvatore Ferragamo, overseeing digital initiatives and North American communication efforts. In 2015, she made her biggest professional leap yet when she launched Armarium (armarium.com) alongside co-founder Alexandra Lind Rose. Their online platform and app allows users to rent luxury garments and access styling services via a network of some of the world’s top trendsetters. A Southern-born New Yorker, Gregory hopes to continue to build Armarium and extend its offerings to global regions. —Mary Murray
