Houston's: hickory burger + Thai Beef Salad!

I love the industrial, modern look! I would love to live somewhere like that. Sad not many good restaurants with water views in Miami. My fav is Thai Beef Salad, has right combo of flavors, spices & textures with peanuts and al dente fettucini! The hickory burger was alright.

Art Basel Preview & Sakaya Kitchen's Bulgogi Burger!

Sakayaburger

Sakaya Kitchen's nice juicy Angus Beef burger and spicy tater tots.

I know, I know, I know!  Once in a while, Sakaya Kitchen's nice juicy Angus Beef burger and spicy tater tots are just the right, quick dinner to have on the run. Must say it's so convenient being right there between our stops.

Gorgeous flower arrangements

There were delish nibbles but nibbles that just filled the corners during the preview of Artsforabetterworld, Soho Studios.  Saw many artists we knew...

Ross Power's marine habitat steel sculpture, FOCUS right by the door. Ross was actually inside it with some reporters taking photos. We have known Ross way back when he first opened Power Studios in Design District. We so enjoyed attending many musical/art events that were unique and intimate in a beautiful environment.  We love to hear Ross' latest projects.

Sidhoeltzell

Sid Hoetzell was the photographer who took photos of Ross Power's sculpture.  He was looking super duper dapper in an all black suit and shirt. Apart from being an ace photographer, Sid is also a lovable character and a foodie.  We've been lucky to be included in many of his yummy BBQ's. Gourmet sausages and all sorts of goodies. Sid is also a WOK STAR! Need photos, Sid.

Natasha Duwin, an artist who uses non-traditional materials to construct pieces using weaving, embroidery and needlework. I love her work and now can add her as a WOK STAR! She'll be giving her last 'tapestry' class this year. Visit her studios, #107, Art Center South Florida on Lincoln Road.

Ralph and David

David Benoliel gave us the scoop on how he pulled his OUTSTANDING exhibit together in only 2 weeks!  That's incredible to get all the models, makeup, scheduling, CONGRATULATIONS!!! We recently attended a photography workshop at his beautiful studio which had a seamless wall backdrop, very clever.

Also saw foodie friends, Jean Marc de Silva and Daniel Spring, oh, forgot to take photos with them, boo. Ralph, Barbara & Barry

Lovely to bump into Barbara & Barry Goldin.  I met them when I had the pleasure of helping with the PR and fundraising events for the Fisher Island Philanthropic Fund. Here's a video Ralph produced which explains all the wonderful things they do. Barry is their Allocations Committee Chair, I enjoyed meeting and working with many residents on the Island who donated their time and effort to raise funds for at-risk youth.

Get out and enjoy all the Art Basel events, so many they make me dizzy.
