From the Editor
June is that magical time of year when we slow down a little and fully appreciate Florida living. While we thrive on the energy of the population swell in the winter, we admittedly enjoy a quiet early-morning walk along the beach, instant table reservations and crowdfree shopping (and parking!). On the other hand, we can’t stop reminiscing about the season—that seven-month stretch of endless parties and gatherings, all in the name of a good cause. And what a season it has been. From Steven Tyler rocking the stage at the ForEverglades Benefit, to the emotional presentation of Oscar de la Renta’s final collection, to Valiente winning the U.S. Open Polo Championship in a nail-biter of a game, this year has been full of moments to remember. This is why we have conceived the June issue as a yearbook of sorts. As you look through the pages, you will notice hundreds of images sure to bring back fond memories and elicit smiles (and maybe a chuckle or two). You have to hand it to this town: We sure like to party, and it’s evident in “Memorable Moments,” starting on page 42. There you’ll find lots of familiar faces caught mid-revelry, snapshots of celebs who passed through town and plenty of candids that encapsulate the fun. Foodies, be sure to turn to page 50 for a review of the area’s top epicurean happenings— the Palm Beach Food & Wine Festival and the Boca Bacchanal. The photos in “A Foodie Affair” are so vivid, you can almost taste the goods served at a dozen events, including a wild street-food competition that still has everyone talking. There’s more, of course. The fashion police was out in full force, singling out some of the best-dressed citizens. See the top picks, along with a few trends set by stylish Palm Beachers, in “Fashion Forward” (page 54). Polo, anyone? For us, the answer is always a resounding, “Yes,” especially when the action is as heart-stopping as it was this season. Our “High Goal” spread (page 58) features some of the top players, moments of triumph, fieldside fashion and chichi events—all good reasons to love polo. I hope you’ll enjoy reliving the fun as much as we have. Here’s to a relaxing summer!

HELLO, SUMMER
La Mer has long been a favorite, but this month I love it for another reason: the World Oceans Day (June 8) limited-edition jar of Crème de la Mer, which supports ocean conservation through the brand’s Blue Heart program.
Summer is the right time to get out and enjoy nature. One of my favorite pieces this month is our roundup on walking paths from Boca to Vero. Page 102. 12

The perfect Palm Beach summer sip has arrived. Tracy Stern’s Tea & Co. line of organic iced teas not only tantalizes taste buds but also pays homage to our favorite pockets of Palm Beach. Stern is a bona fide tea guru, having opened the Salontea international tea boutiques and penned two tomes dedicated to her favorite drink. Her new Palm Beach tea collection includes six blends named for island locales, like the No. 6 Worth, a mix of black tea, strawberry and raspberry, and the No. 4 Via Vizcaya, a marriage of green tea and mango. Each blend is packaged in a tea caddy that captures the colorful essence of the island.

When traditional art supplies and building materials won’t do, it’s time to clean out the cupboard and get creative. The Palm Beach County Food Bank and The Gardens Mall are transforming pantry items into works of art for the third annual Canstruction sculpture competition. This month, architects and builders will create sculptures, using only canned and packaged foods, under the theme of the Cannes International Film Festival. The works will be on display at The Gardens Mall from June 8-21, and all of the goods will be donated to the food bank after decanstruction. More than 30,000 pounds of food was collected following the 2014 event, and this year promises to be bigger—and tastier—than ever. (561-670-2518, pbc foodbank.org; 561-775-7750, thegardensmall.com)

Summertime in Florida is always hot, but this year it will be electric. The city of West Palm Beach, in partnership with the Downtown Development Authority, Visit Palm Beach and Discover the Palm Beaches, has organized Summer in Paradise, a series of events that honors the essence of summer fun. The bedrock of this initiative is The Pool, a temporary interactive light installation by artist Jen Lewin. Nightly, from 7 to 11, visitors are welcome to run, jump and play on The Pool’s glowing concentric circles, which transform through touch, creating streaks of fluorescent color. The Pool has delighted pedestrians around the world and will make its Florida debut on the Great Lawn at the West Palm Beach Waterfront on June 4. A number of activities will coincide with this installation—on display to July 4—including glow-in-thedark mini golf at the Waterfront Landing, moonlight watersports and popular downtown happenings like Screen on the Green, Sunday on the Waterfront and Clematis by Night, all culminating in the not-to-be-missed Fourth on Flagler celebration.

One of the greatest benefits of living in paradise is indulging in staycations that are as decadent and blissful as any exotic vacation. Here are a few local destinations off the beaten path:
• Sundy House, Delray Beach: Sundy House provides a taste of secluded Old Florida just steps away from Atlantic Avenue. This boutique hotel features only 12 guest rooms surrounded by tropical foliage as well as one of the best weekend brunches in the county. (561-272-5678, sundy house.com) • Mango Inn Bed and Breakfast, Lake Worth: For a taste of Lake Worth, stay at the Mango Inn Bed and Breakfast, located in a circa-1915 home on the outskirts of the hip downtown district. The rooms honor Florida with names like sea grape, mango and bougainvillea, and inroom massages are available upon request. (561-533-6900, mangoinn.com) • Old Colorado Inn, Stuart: Commit to a brief car ride up the coast and you’ll arrive at the quaint Old Colorado Inn, nestled in the center of Stuart’s historic downtown area. Stay on property, or opt for the Blue House, an off-site restored Sears and Roebuck kit home equipped with wood floors, antique furniture and a hammock for late-afternoon naps. (772-2153437, oldcoloradoinn.com)
Art Awaits
If you frequent South Dixie Highway between Belvedere Road and downtown West Palm Beach, you’ve seen signs marking the emergence of West Palm’s newest arts hub. And we’re not talking traditional road signs: Oversized, fluorescent tulips; towering sculptural works of modern art; and a plea to “Use your imagination, that is what it is for” have heralded the arrival of a truly special space—EmKo. Nestled in the Flamingo Park neighborhood, EmKo is the brainchild of artist Leo Koel, who began renovating the historic 1920s building, the former location of Ragtops Antique Motorcar Museum, in 2012. The result is a bold yet welcoming home for two creative endeavors: a culinary art studio and an artist exhibition space. The restaurant Jereve is the culinary art studio’s nucleus, where Executive Chef Nick Martinkovic creates modern American cuisine with an artistic twist. Local, seasonal and uncommon ingredients drive his menus—on a recent visit, he was excited about a shipment of edible barnacles. Jereve’s offerings are augmented by the adjacent Untitled Coffee & Juice Bar, which has to-go bites and drinks as well as afternoon tea service, and The Market, which sells artisan food and entertaining products. Step outside and discover the Back Alley Bakery, a café that serves fresh-baked goods and desserts from Jereve’s pastry chef, Arielle Curasi. Once satiated, take a moment to look around. The space is decked out in Koel’s artistry, which embraces reinvention and upcycling. “I always turn nothing into something,” he says. From his tables made from reclaimed wood to his works in the sculpture garden, Koel has fed all of his artistic passions into EmKo. The Artist Independent Republic or AIR, as Koel calls it, was born out of a need to share these passions with others. Located on the third floor, this 6,000-square-foot space will highlight local, emerging artists in need of exposure. Creators of all breeds, including fashion designers, musicians and visual artists, will take part in in-house, strictly solo exhibitions. Whether you visit EmKo for a show or a meal—or both—you’ll be inspired by Koel’s work and by words of wisdom scattered around, including this gem by Lemony Snicket: “If we wait until we’re ready, we’ll wait for the rest of our lives.” (561-227-3511, emkopb.com)

Boston for Foodies
George Apostolidis
Boston earns destination status as a culinary hotspot by paul rubio
Bar Boulud
035-ESCAPE-0615.indd 35
For decades, Boston counted on its bounty of historical, cultural and intellectual riches to enchant visitors and maintain must-visit prominence. But in recent years, the history-steeped “Cradle of Liberty� has also developed a true cosmopolitan edge, playing twenty-first-century catch-up to gain equal standing among its metropolitan peers. In particular, Boston has solidified its role in the global foodie movement, coming into focus as a blank canvas for New England’s farm-to-table and oceanto-table assets and gaining new respect in the world of modern cuisine thanks to a wealth of chef-driven restaurants. Here, a microcosm of what the buzz is all about. palmbeachillustrated.com | june 2015

Bar Boulud Floridians are hardly strangers to the prowess of Chef Daniel Boulud, but at the new Boston outpost of his wildly popular New York and London eatery, Bar Boulud, the prolific chef adds a New England spin to his signature French epicurean delights. Most meals begin in traditional Boulud fashion with hearty charcuterie boards from famed Parisian butcher Gilles Vérot, followed by a classic French starter like escargots de Bourgogne or the more regional crab timbale, a savory Maine crab cocktail peppered with celery root and green apple. For the pièce de résistance, enjoy the homard de Gloucester, a sweet Gloucester lobster delicately smoked in English tea and artistically presented between beds of savoy cabbage and marble potatoes.

The oysters cultivated on Island Creek Oyster farm in Duxbury, Massachusetts, are heralded as some of the world’s best. These salty, juicy mollusks with a mildly fruity finish compose the cornerstone of the eponymous oyster bar in Boston’s Kenmore Square, a collaboration of farm owner Skip Bennett and noted chef Jeremy Seawall. Beyond shucking the upper crust of New England bivalves, Island Creek Oyster Bar doles out the city’s superlative seafood dishes. Case in point: The no-shell Prince Edward Island mussels with pasta pearls, bathed in a garlicky, white wine and cream reduction, falls nothing short of experiential. The golden tilefish atop pillows of
ricotta gnocchi, seasoned with green garlic, runs a close second. In all aspects of design and execution, the restaurant espouses an elevated farm-to-table mantra, seeking to connect consumers with the purveyors and personalities behind the fresh, locally sourced greatness that makes Island Creek so special.

Rialto A year after Food & Wine magazine selected Jody Adams as one of America’s 10 best new chefs, she debuted her freshman restaurant, Rialto, in Harvard Square.

Tavern Road’s cocktails are as eclectic as the street foodinspired eats, like baja fish tacos.
Louis and Michael DiBiccari, the restaurant’s design and interior pay homage to their famous Uncle Adio, a master sculptor whose works are strewn throughout the city. The flavorful small-plates menu centers on global street foods hailing from Mexico (think Bajainspired fish tacos) to Spain (a variation of northern Spain’s pulpo a la gallega with peppers and pearl onions) to America (food truck– style fried cauliflower dressed with grapes, peanuts and charred scallions). Libation lovers will also adore this spot, as the cocktails are as diverse as the cuisine. (617-790-0808, tavernroad.com) «

ingredients to recreate regional Italian dishes. Rialto’s menu constantly changes to highlight particular areas in Italy. In a recent case, chef Adams ambushed the senses with the sights, smells and tastes of the central Lazio region. Beyond the Lazio-inspired carciofi (artichokes prepared three ways) and pesce spade (grilled citrus-marinated swordfish), diners reveled in menu perennials like the gnocchi in nettle-basil pesto and the chocolate crema, a warm house-made chocolate cake blanketed with caramel, nutmeg meringue, roasted banana and white-chocolate gelato—one of the original dishes that earned Adams her celebrity status back in the nineties.

The Pursuit of Serenity
The artisans at Rolls-Royce create a remarkable, one-of-a-kind Phantom inspired by cherry blossoms By Howard Walker Japanese royalty of yesteryear knew all about serenity.

Naturally, he turns to the Bespoke Division at Rolls-Royce Motors’ While the silk worms were at work, Lusby and Haye designed a Goodwood headquarters in southern England and sets in motion a special blossom motif with delicate white petals and copper-colored remarkable design exercise that results in the magnificent, one-of-a- branches.

These intoxicating blooms were hand painted directly onto the silk panels, a process that took a staggering 600 hours for each panel. Then there is the woodwork. To continue with the Oriental theme, rare smoked cherrywood was used for the Serenity’s door cappings, fascia and rear center console. Next, the Rolls-Royce marquetry craftsmen created intricate, lasercut mother-of-pearl flowers and hand applied them to the wood door cappings in the rear. Mother-of-pearl also flows through the driver’s compartment. Look closely and you’ll see the instrument and clock faces are etched with concentric circles to resemble the delicately raked gravel seen in Japanese gardens. As for the red-colored markers on the clock face, they’re genuine rubies. Of course, the exterior of this fabulous Phantom needed to be as exquisite and handcrafted as the exterior. So its shimmery mother-ofpearl paintwork is the most expensive ever developed by Rolls-Royce. It features a three-stage pearl effect that was hand polished for 12 hours. Only then was a three-color blossom motif and a two-color coachline

applied by the company’s coachline expert and his squirrel-hair paintbrush. Mere photographs don’t do justice to the magnificence of this machine. The delicacy, the design, the craftsmanship, the sheer beauty and tranquility make this Phantom Serenity nothing less than an exquisite masterpiece. So how much does all this artistry cost? Rolls-Royce’s director of global communications, Richard Carter, remains as discreet as always. “That’s not something we discuss,” he informs me. My guess: Somewhere between $1.5 and $2 million. Could be more. Way more. But what price serenity? «

Palm Beach is already charming, but Thomas and Jamie Tomas are making it even sweeter. In February, they opened Sweet Spot Palm Beach, a walk-in eatery in the former Stephen Bonanno Sandals storefront offering items like fresh-pressed juices, to-go breakfast and lunch items and its enticing specialty: handmade, slow-churned frozen custard. Just how decadent is it? Take a look at this luscious Palm Beach-inspired sundae the Tomases created just for Palm Beach Illustrated: scoops of chocolate, salted caramel and vanilla custards accessorized with white and dark chocolate Godiva pearls, assorted truffles, handmade whipped cream, hot fudge, shimmering rock-candy diamonds and a decorative mold created in the shop. It's our favorite way to keep cool this summer. (561-888-4620, sweetspotpb.com) —Jennifer Pfaff

Get to Grilling If man began cooking with fire a million years ago, why are so many of us still in the dark about grilling? “You have to practice,” says Bryan Tyrell, executive chef and pitmaster at Smoke BBQ in Delray Beach. Tyrell knows his way around a grill. His career highlights include membership on the award-winning Slaughterhouse Five, one of the finest barbecue competition teams in the country, and running the legendary road-trip pit stop Oklahoma Joe’s in Kansas City, which bad-boy chef and TV personality Anthony Bourdain featured in his 2009 restaurant roundup, “13 Places to Eat Before You Die.” Despite his pedigree, Tyrell is more than happy to share his knowledge with others. Below, Tyrell serves up his top tips to get you grilling like a pro. (561-330-4236, eatbbqnow.com) —Kerry Shorr “BFF” YOUR BUTCHER Picking good meat is an important part of grilling, so develop a friendship with your butcher. That way, when you tell him, “I want some really good pork chops tonight,” he’ll know exactly what you need.
HEAT IT UP There are two ways to grill: directly and indirectly. Smaller cuts of meat (i.e., steaks and hamburgers) cook quickly and can be grilled right over the heat source. Larger, tougher meats (including ribs, brisket and pork shoulders) require many hours to barbecue, so they’re
CHARCOAL AND GAS 101
placed alongside the heat to prevent burning. If you have to step away from the grill, Tyrell recommends setting a timer. Chef trick: Like sweet and sticky ribs? Tyrell suggests coating them with barbecue sauce 15-20 minutes before you pull them off so they have time to caramelize. SMOKY IS NOT A BEAR Traditional barbecue means smoking your food. Toss in some wood or a smoker box to infuse your meats and vegetables with a delicious, smoky flavor.
Shopping for a new grill? Here’s what you should know:

charcoal
Gas
pros
Gets hotter than standard gas and emits stronger smoke flavors that will impact food the longer it cooks.
Heats quickly and temperatures are easy to manipulate. Accessories (like a smoker box or a rotisserie) provide extra convenience.
cons
Takes longer to heat and won’t stand up to rain. Many South Florida communities have banned them due to fire risks.
Requires a smoker box. Gas grills cost more than classic charcoal grills.
Chef pick: “I use oak and pecan every day and a mild fruit wood (apple, peach, cherry) for fish and chicken,” Tyrell says. SPICE THINGS UP Bring some bite to a side dish, like potato salad or salsa, with sliced jalapeños or pureed chipotle peppers, but remove the seeds to reduce the flammability factor. Fresh herbs, such as cilantro, will deepen flavor and add dimension. HISTORY LESSON Record important details (type of food, temperatures, timing, sauces, flavor, tenderness) so you can look back to see what worked, what didn’t and what still needs tweaking.

A Perfect Matcha If the taste of Zen and the taste of green tea are synonymous, as some experts claim, then the taste of matcha approaches nirvana. Matcha is the Rolls-Royce of green teas. It has been around since at least the twelfth century, when it played an important role in Japanese tea ceremonies. Matcha leaves are dried, deveined and destemmed before being stone-ground into a fine powder. It is then forced through a fine sieve to remove clumps and whisked into hot water in a pottery bowl. Because the entire leaf is used, matcha is higher in antioxidants than regular green tea and offers the same combination of stimulation and peacefulness. Give matcha a try at Palm Beach Smoothies in Boynton Beach or at Teavana in Boca Raton. You might not attain enlightenment, but you’ll have a satisfying cup of tea.

No, we’re not talking about Picasso. The paloma is the most popular tequila-based cocktail in Mexico, easily eclipsing its close cousin, the margarita. It has two main virtues: It uses grapefruit soda in addition to lime juice, which many tequila aficionados feel is a better match, and it’s so simple to make you hardly need to be a bartender. Recipes generally call for blanco tequila, but some connoisseurs prefer reposado. If you’re unable to locate grapefruit soda, substitute a mixture of freshly squeezed grapefruit juice, simple syrup (or agave nectar) and club soda. —M.S.
Ingredients Salt Ice 2 oz. tequila B/c oz. lime juice 6 oz. grapefruit soda Rim a Collins glass with salt. Fill the glass with ice, add tequila and lime juice and top with grapefruit soda.

GREEK GOODS It’s no myth—the wines of Greece now compete on a global scale By Mark Spivak
82
Vineyards at Gerovassiliou
Something is fermenting up and down the Greek peninsula, and it has nothing to do with economics or politics. There has been a quiet revolution in the Greek wine industry over the past few decades. Although the country has produced wine for more than 6,000 years, it had never been known to excel on the quality scale. Today, there are dozens of estates making wine that can compete with the best of France, Spain, Italy or Napa—although George Spiliadis, proprietor of the import company Cava Spiliadis, believes consumer perception in the United States still lags behind reality. “The idea sprang from the lack of highquality Greek wine in this country,” he explains. “There was a disconnect between what was happening in Greece and what was being exported to North America.” Spiliadis was well-positioned to bridge that gap. As beverage director for his family’s restaurant group, Estiatorio Milos, he had access to an upscale and knowledgeable clientele dining in locations as far-flung as Manhattan, Montreal, Athens, Las Vegas, Miami and London. He assembled a portfolio of familyowned boutique wineries he calls “the new generation of Greek wine,” currently available in Florida, California, New York and the Mid-Atlantic states. To combat the challenge of unfamiliar grape varieties and unpronounceable names, he conducts frequent educational seminars with staff members in restaurants and retail stores. Below are highlights of the Greek wine world. Domaine Gerovassiliou: Bordeaux-trained Evangelos Gerovassiliou, who founded his own estate in 1981, has been called “the godfather of modern Greek winemaking.” He

turns out a single-vineyard white from the Malagousia grape (2013, $30), infused with citrus and bracing acidity, as well as a ripe, generous red blend called Avaton (2011, $30). Biblia Chora: Gerovassiliou partnered with another Bordeaux-educated winemaker, Vassilis Tsaktsarlis, to found Biblia Chora in 2001. Its entry-level white, Areti (2013, $23), is a crisp and vivid wine from the Assyrtiko grape. The Estate White (2013, $23), a blend of Assyrtiko and Sauvignon Blanc, is a complex bottle filled with flavors of citrus, melon and quince. The Biblinos Oenos red (2009, $40), is the most intriguing of the bunch. It’s made from an unnamed local variety and yields concentrated flavors of plums, blackberries and minerals. Domaine Driopi: Giannis Tselepos trained in Burgundy and purchased his 50-year-old vineyard in 2003. He makes a terrific rosé from the Agiorgitiko grape (2013, $15) with a cavalcade of wild strawberry, currant and red raspberry flavors. His Nemea Reserve (2010,
$32) is even better: An explosion of ripe fruit is balanced by supple tannins, good acidity and evidence of new French oak. Parparoussis: Founded in 1974 on the northwestern coast of the Peloponnese, Parparoussis produces organic wines from indigenous varietals. Highlights include Petit Fleur (2013, $20), a knockout rosé from the Sideritis grape; skin contact gives the wine a light tan color, and the racy mouth feel yields flavors of hazelnuts and macadamias. As good as it is, it is eclipsed by its red Taos blend (2005, $40). Aged in French oak for two years, the wine is graceful and seamless, with flavors of anise and mint that continue on a long finish. Domaine Katsaros: A small family winery founded in 1985 on Mount Olympus, Katsaros is best known for its Estate Red (2008, $50), a blend of 85 percent Cabernet Sauvignon and 15 percent Merlot, a ripe and full-bodied wine displaying soft tannins, flavors of black fruits and licorice, and a long, tart finish. «

Nesting Instinct Palm Beach designer Scott Snyder made this Worth Avenue penthouse sing using a thoughtfully selected mélange of bird accents. Inspired by the famous interior designer Sister Parish, Snyder created a fanciful design for a client who splits her time between Boston and Palm Beach. “Sister’s fine hand in interpreting English [design] and Chinoiserie was my inspiration to transport my client’s sophistication from Boston to the tropics,” he says. “We collected nineteenth-century mirrors, tables and chairs mixed with eighteenth-century porcelains and then added a nice balance of modern pieces that all played off the gorgeous bird-infused custom wallcovering from de Gournay.” (561-659-6255, scott snyderinc.com)

Pura Vida COSTA RI CA
NEXT WAVE CRESTING AT WATERFRONT PROPERTIES by Gregory T. DuBose
“ I T ’S A LL G O O D. ” Loosely translated, pura vida is the cultural term Costa Ricans use to describe when things are progressing smoothly. Pura vida describes the smooth progression occurring at Waterfront Properties, the Northern Palm Beaches and Treasure Coast’s dominant luxury real estate company. Held recently in Costa Rica, The 13th Annual Luxury Real Estate Spring Retreat showcased how Waterfront Properties’ Principal Rob Thomson is working to ensure pura vida for his agents and clients. A long-time member of the Luxury Real Estate International Symposium, Thomson understands the power of the exclusive, international network. Representing 60 countries and combined annual sales in excess of $128 billion, Luxury Real Estate
International is a community. Thomson has always made it a point to grow his Waterfront team’s reach and influence by ensuring they too are counted as vital members of LREI.
“Waterfront does things a certain way. It is very intentional. At the same time and within that framework, every agent’s method is unique.”
The Costa Rica retreat was the most recent gathering of LREI’s member agents and brokers from across the world. Waterfront Properties’ Adam Brown and John Nugent are both 20-year agents. Already involved in meaningful relationships with brokers from across the globe, the event provided more of a good thing.
Courtney Olander shows the promise that Thomson identifies as ripe for the next step. Thomson noted, “Buyers come from across the globe. Every team member that I can place in a position to be a resource for those international buyers’ representatives is one more chance that Waterfront Properties has to bring the right people together.” Thomson concluded, “Start with authentic relationships. Be unconcerned with how it may benefit you in the end. That’s the simple art of any successful deal. That sums up Courtney’s ethos.”
Like Thomson, when in the company of international brokers, Brown and Nugent are brand ambassadors for the local market and its premier listings. Adam Brown commented, “Rob puts us in the right situations, with the right people.” John Nugent added,

team. He spent many years in the market at another well-known luxury real estate company. Stefan commented, “I joined Waterfront Properties because I knew Rob could connect me with people around the world. Rob and his team have opened me up to a network that I could only imagine just a year ago.”
marketing themselves, specific properties and our local market.
For all the enjoyment Thomson takes in seeing his people succeed, there is another motivating factor. “The byproduct of helping cement our people within this international network is our clients are better served.” He continued, “We are creating opportunities for our clients’ ultimate success.” Later this year, Waterfront Properties will be at Luxury Real Estate International Symposiums in Seattle and Germany.Another group of Waterfront team members will attend. They’ll forge new relationships,
“There’s a reason Waterfront does more referrals than anyone in the entire international network. It’s the multiplier effect. We equip people to be the best they can be and then we get out of the way and let it happen,” Thomson said. Waterfront Properties spends an exhaustive amount of time on training, technology and resource building. The headquarters boasts an on-site training incubator. Here, new team members learn the Waterfront way. Senior team members often return to the training incubator to refine their way. It’s not tough to get them back. They recognize the role training, technology and resources like Florida’s largest real estate Internet marketing team play in their success.
This glimpse into the next wave of market leaders cresting at Waterfront Properties foretells even more exciting times. Whereas some employers fear what happens when their people are truly allowed to soar, Thomson has a polar opposite view. “People ask what happens when these agents we spend money and time to put ‘out there,’ leave? I never worry about that. I’m focused on what happens when we show the confidence in our people, our business model and our own good judgment, to give them everything they need to succeed.” As usual, it comes back to the clients. Rob described what Waterfront Properties’ method brings clients, saying simply, “they win.” Thomson likened his Waterfront Properties team to the near perfect waves off the Costa Rican beach. It’s not the wave. It’s the set. “As one wave makes its way past, more great ones are building up right behind it.”

Chia Seeds
Move over sesame, flax and pumpkin seeds—chia seeds are the teenytiny super food everyone is talking about. These healthy seeds hail from Mexico and Guatemala and are derived from a flowering plant in the mint family. They come in black and white varieties—with no real nutritional difference between the colors—and are packed with omega-3 fatty acids, fiber, protein and antioxidants. Unlike flax, chia seeds do not need to be ground before use and are relatively tasteless, so they can be incorporated into many foods without altering the flavor profile. Add chia seeds to salads or cereals, blend them into a smoothie or sprinkle them over a bowl of ice cream for an added healthy crunch.

Vero Beach: Farther north, McKee Botanical Garden houses one of the most unique walking paths in South Florida. Arthur G. McKee and Waldo E. Sexton founded McKee Jungle Gardens in 1932 and enlisted famed architect William Lyman Phillips to design the landscape. The area fell into decline over decades of development but was revitalized and reopened in 2001. Today, McKee is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and is considered a project of national significance by The Garden Conservancy. The trail guides visitors through 10,000 native and tropical plants spread across 18 acres—with waterfalls giving way to streams and ponds dotted with a large collection of water lilies—and to the Hall of Giants and the Spanish Kitchen, two historic structures that have been restored to their original designs. For an extra treat, visit the garden June 20 for an annual celebration when 300 water lily plants of more than 100 varieties will be in bloom.
Boca Raton: Daggerwing Nature Center features the best of summer walking—a beautiful boardwalk and a reprise from the heat in the form of a 3,000-square-foot exhibition hall. At just more than a half-mile in length, the elevated boardwalk provides two trail options that wind through 40 acres of swampland. The boardwalk is a walkers-only zone (no pets, joggers, runners, bikers or skaters allowed), is dotted with benches and includes an observation tower. While you’re there, see if you can spot the Ruddy Daggerwing Butterfly while keeping watch at the tower or at the butterfly garden surrounding the exhibition hall.

Our slice of South Florida is packed with paths—walking paths, that is. As spring eases into summer, step outside and enjoy well kempt walkways lined with native foliage, fascinating fauna and prehistoric wetlands. We’ve curated some of the top paths from Boca Raton to Vero Beach, so you can get stepping this summer. (pbcgov.com; mckeegarden.org) Connie Shackleford

Delray Beach: For real waterworks, visit the Wakodahatchee Wetlands, which holds 20 million gallons of water distributed over 39 acres of wetlands sliced into eight emergent marsh regions. The name Wakodahatchee comes from the Seminole Indian term for “created waters,” and the area is in fact man-made: It was built in the mid-1990s to illustrate native wetland areas. Since then, it has blossomed with a variety of aquatic plants and has attracted much wildlife, especially birds. Birdwatchers can stroll the three-quartermile boardwalk on alert for more than 140 species. In the summer, look for the vibrantly hued Purple Gallinule as it arrives to feast on the fireflag plant flower.

Palm Beach Gardens: Spanning 172 acres, Frenchman’s Forest Natural Area is an unparalleled slice of Floridian wildlife and terrain. The area is part of the Northeast Everglades Natural Area and is composed of seven ecosystems: mesic flatwoods, scrubby flatwoods, wet flatwoods, strand swamp, hydric hammock, mangrove swamp and a depression marsh. The majority of Frenchman’s Forest sits to the west of Prosperity Farms Road and includes a nature trail, an observation platform and two natural-surface hiking trails. About a half-mile away, a smaller portion of the area, Prosperity Oaks has natural-surface hiking trails and two educational kiosks. At either location, you might see a southern leopard frog, a great horned owl, a Chuck-will’s-widow or even a bobcat.

West Palm Beach: Okeeheelee Nature Center, located on Forest Hill Boulevard one mile west of Jog Road, feels worlds away from busy downtown West Palm Beach. The two-and-a-halfmile trail provides a thorough workout as you snake through pine flatwoods and wetlands. Communing with wildlife is a top priority here, and many animals can be spotted along the trail. White-tailed deer frequently gather at the deer enclosure overlook, painted buntings add a dose of color to the surroundings, gopher tortoises graze alongside walkers and wood ducks, the mascot of the nature center, are waiting to quack hello.

In our last issue, we highlighted surfing, one of the most popular board exercises in our area and nationwide. This month, we’re looking at a lesser-known board sport that is rising in popularity. Kiteboarding is a fun and challenging activity that offers strenuous exercise and unparalleled thrills. “Kiteboarding is the fusion of multiple other sports, such as kite flying, wakeboarding and windsurfing,” says Gael Pasquet, an instructor at Kiteboarding Palm Beach. “This fascinating combination realizes man’s eternal dream of flying. With kiteboarding, it is possible to get insane air. Experienced pilots are getting 20 to 40 feet of air and performing amazing aerials.” For beginners looking to try the practice, Gael dishes on the basics and benefits of kiteboarding. (561-502-8623, kiteboardingpalmbeach.com) PBI: What makes kiteboarding a good form of exercise? GP: Kiteboarding combines aerobic and resistance exercises, and this combination is perfect for keeping a balanced weight, molding your figure and gaining physical strength. What areas of the body does it engage? It tones your body, especially the upper area [including] arms and abdomen. It strengthens your abdominals, resulting in a physical improvement of the abductors and legs, too. You increase the strength in your arms by holding the kite, your legs by bending over the table to ride and the muscles of your hands by grabbing the bar. What are other physical and mental benefits of the practice? Riding on the board is a great way to improve your balance. … As you have to keep the kite in the air with one hand while you enter the water, grabbing the board with the other hand, you are focused on several tasks at once [so] your coordination and your concentration improve. How do wind conditions affect kiteboarding? You can only do kiteboarding on inshore or side-shore wind— any offshore wind is not good. Beginners can ride from 12- to 25-miles-per-hour winds.

Fermented foods and drinks have long been linked to good gut health and digestion due to their abundance of probiotics. Kombucha, a fermented drink made from tea, sugar, bacteria and yeast, has grown in popularity in recent years because of its purported health benefits and can now be found in national grocery chains and hip eateries. In Palm Beach Gardens, One Kombucha takes a craft approach to the tea, offering eight flavors on tap, including grape, passion fruit, ginger lemon and apple spice—all of which are certified organic. Owner Danny Mancini describes the taste of kombucha as “slightly sweet, with a light tang from the acidity” and praises its vitamin B content. When you purchase a bottle, glass or growler of One Kombucha, you’re not just enjoying a healthy sip but also contributing to a good cause, as Mancini donates a portion of proceeds to the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation.

Wealth Strategies for Preservation and Transfer of Wealth Consider these steps to create an estate plan your family can live with By Judy Martel
Most people who reach the pinnacle of financial success eventually turn their attention to preserving it for future generations. Enter the team of estate-planning attorneys and accountants, right? Not so fast, says Roy Williams, president and founder of the Williams Group, an advisory firm for high-networth families. In his research, Williams found that in 70 percent of cases families failed to transfer wealth from one generation to the next largely because of a breakdown within the family rather than a depletion of funds. Trusts and legal documents may spell out the “hows” and “wherefores” of transferring wealth, but for it to take hold the family has to do some work first.
“Lawyers will focus on structure, strategy, governance and taxation,” Williams says. While all of that is a vital part of the estate-planning process, it isn’t the complete picture, nor is it the starting point. Susan Bradley, founder of Sudden Money Institute, adds that because most people tend to begin the estate-planning process with a visit to their attorney, many won’t continue because it can be complex and overwhelming. “Besides saying, ‘We want to treat all the children the same,’ they don’t take the time to think through the what-ifs,” she says. “For example, what if one of your children dies? Do you want the child’s spouse to inherit?”
Developing an estate plan you and your heirs can live with is easier if you use a roadmap. Experts suggests these critical steps to get started now. Determine family values: “Our values determine the actions we take on a daily basis,” Williams says. “Whether you have 10 cents or a billion dollars, your values drive you, so before getting too far into the estate-planning process, the family needs to identify its values.” These are the collective, core beliefs of the family and might include descriptions such as charitable, religious or environmentally conscious. Define the mission: For example, how will the family use its wealth based on its values? Williams cautions this cannot be

just mom and dad’s vision. “Otherwise, the moment they die, the family no longer adheres to it,” he says. Propose a family meeting: This will jump-start the discussion about what everyone wants to accomplish with the estate plan, aside from minimizing taxes. “Maybe it’s taking care of other people or entities you care about,” Bradley says. Call for consensus: Trust within the family is important for communication to be effective, Williams says. Sometimes, the family agrees to the estate plan the patriarch and matriarch devise because they are practicing what Williams calls “cordial hypocrisy.” They’ll agree to the plan, but because they weren’t involved, they won’t
104-wealth-0615.indd 105
stick with it after the parents are gone. “When they are involved, they see it,” Williams says. “You have to get rid of cordial hypocrisy.” Communicate often: Bradley says regular family meetings will allow all parties adequate opportunity to express themselves without feeling pressured to get it all into a single time frame. “Most people don’t give themselves that regular time together, especially if the first meeting doesn’t go well,” she says. In many cases, she recommends what she calls a “thinking partner,” or a third party who “doesn’t have a dog in the fight, as they say.” That person can provide objective advice and help the family uncover its collective mission and purpose.
Identify family roles: As your estate plan evolves, various roles for family members will likely surface, Williams says. For example, if there is to be a charitable foundation, certain family members may emerge as natural leaders or board members. The future of a family business may come into sharper focus, with the current leadership understanding how it needs to train the next generation. When families define and agree upon their mission and values around the wealth and open the path to effective communication, they provide the team of legal and financial experts with a “yellow brick road to follow,” Williams says, making for a more powerful plan. « PALMBEACHILLUSTRATED.com | june 2015 105

Life in the Garden
Trade the Florida summer swamplands for an ethereal garden when Ballet East dances The Secret Garden at the Eissey Campus Theatre in Palm Beach Gardens on June 19 and 20. The show will begin with a season-end production featuring original ballet pieces. Following intermission, the stage will transform into the magical world made famous by Frances Hodgson Burnett’s nineteenth-century novel. Mary Lennox is determined to find the key to a hidden garden, and with a little help from a robin, a fox and a friend named Dickon, she just might. Tickets start at $25.

As if mythical canines weren’t enough, “Japan’s Robot Kingdom” illustrates the role of robots in Japanese popular culture through vintage toys and figurines. Both shows run from June 16 to September 13. Summer boredom just became a thing of the past. (561-495-0233, morikami.org) —J.B.

Cultural community The Cultural Council of Palm Beach County is always striving to bring attention to the artists who call the Palm Beaches home. The “Cultural Council Biennial 2015,” on display to August 29, features pieces from 62 area artists who represent the county’s diverse art scene. More than 400 works—including such media as photography, sculpture, paintings and even site-specific installations—were submitted by almost 130 artists. Arts writer Elizabeth Sobieski, whose work has appeared in The Arts Economist, The Huffington Post and New York Magazine, judged the show, but all visitors are encouraged to pick their favorite piece in a “People’s Choice” contest to be awarded in mid-August.
