Culinary Event to Feature Tasting Samples from Miami Spice Participating Restaurants
Macy’s Department Store has recently joined forces with the Greater Miami Convention & Visitors Bureau (GMCVB) to introduce Flavors of Miami Spice, a fabulous culinary and fashion extravaganza to be held at Macy’s Aventura Mall on Thursday, September 6, 2012, during the world’s most important fashion event, Fashion’s Night Out.
Guests will join editors, celebrities, fashion models, fashionistas, and designers for a fun-filled evening, featuring complimentary tasting samples from Miami Spice participating restaurants, including II Mulino NY-Miami, Cascata Grill, Bongo’s Cuban Cafe, Larios On The Beach and Morton’s The Steakhouse (North Miami Beach). Throughout the night, guests will enjoy delicious mojitos and piña coladas courtesy of Bacardi as well as beer provided by Stella Artois. In addition, attendees will have the opportunity to win Miami Spice dinner vouchers (redeemable at specific participating restaurants).
Fashion’s Night Out is an unprecedented global initiative created in 2009 in a partnership between American Vogue, the Council of Fashion Designers of America, NYC & Company, and the City of New York to celebrate fashion, restore consumer confidence, boost the industry’s economy and put the fun back in shopping. Since then, the event has grown exponentially, expanding nationally in 2011 to over 250 cities and globally into 18 countries.
Now in its 11th year, the Greater Miami Convention & Visitors Bureau’s (GMCVB) Miami Spice Restaurant Program is the wildly anticipated summer celebration in which Greater Miami restaurants offer discounted three-course lunch and dinner menus. New to the program this year is a second pricing option, offering Miami Spice fans more diverse and wide-ranging dining options, simultaneously from August 1 – September 30, 2012. The expanded format of Miami Spice – presented by American Express and sponsored by BACARDI® rum and Stella Artois – consists of two restaurant groups: Luxury dining restaurants and fine dining restaurants. Luxury dining restaurants offer three course prix-fixe lunches at $23. per person, dinners at $39. Fine dining restaurants feature menus at $19. for lunch, $33. for dinner.
