Interiors designed by 1508 London, are an authentic interpretation of the brand.

MasterChef Tom Aviv Makes US Debut With Branja, Retro Concept in Miami

Annabella Pardo

Award-winning chef and restaurateur Tom Aviv is bringing his bold style and out-of-the box recipes to the U.S. with the highly anticipated concept, Branja. Officially debuting on February 7, 2023, the restaurant, located in Miami’s Upper Buena Vista, offers elevated dishes reflective of Aviv’s Israeli background.

Known internationally for his flavorful and imaginative dishes, Aviv’s Branja offers options for every palate. A cultural expedition, guests entering Branja step back in time to Tel Aviv in the ‘70s. With a distinct retro design and warm pastel colors, every detail is carefully curated. Branja’s interior and exterior design is a cross between Tel Aviv’s iconic indoor-outdoor train station structure and a cathedral structure, and ancient Synagogue seating, while a towering outdoor mural depicts retro art vignettes by Tel Aviv-based artist Paul Curran, representing the city’s neighborhoods and bustling markets.

Photo via @branjamiami

Born and raised in Tel Aviv, the chef became a household name after winning MasterChef Israel in 2016. Although Aviv had no formal culinary training, he quickly gained notoriety for his sensational persona and use of imaginative flavors. Over the past six years, he has launched multiple unique restaurant concepts in Israel and Morocco — all of which quickly became dining hotspots. Starting with the energetic Coco Bambino, located in Tel Aviv’s popular Carmel Market, which was an immediate success thanks to its Israeli dishes with an Italian twist. Following the accolades of his initial concept, Aviv debuted Fat Cow, which earned TimeOut’s “Best Hamburger in Tel Aviv” for three consecutive years. Most recently, thanks to the historic peace agreement between Israel and Morocco, Aviv became the first Israeli chef to open a restaurant in Casablanca with his concept Milk + Honey. Offering modern Halal fare, the casual eatery has become wildly popular. Now, Aviv is making his state-side debut with Branja—an  immersive, high-vibe culinary voyage. 

Photo via @branjamiami

“Miami’s melting pot of cultures and cuisines is much like my own culinary inspirations, which combine the vibrant flavors of my upbringing in Israel with my travels across the globe. With Branja being my first restaurant in the United States, I am excited to introduce this unique taste and create a memorable dining experience,” shares Aviv. “The name Branja is Hebrew slang, originating from the word for tree branch, that translates to ‘a circle of friends.’ Branja’s small outdoor terrace and 12-seat Chef’s Table experience offer an exclusive setting to share plates and explore new flavors.”

Located in the idyllic Upper Buena Vista retail sanctuary, Branja’s retro, 3,000-square foot space, is as captivating as its menu. The 12-seat Chef’s Table offers two intimate omakase-style seatings for guests each night, and the open-concept kitchen allows guests to watch Aviv and his team construct culinary art. Replete with copper accents throughout, the indoor portion of space also offers a flashback to retro Miami: The iconic bar from the Delano Hotel’s Florida Room, designed by Lenny Kravitz, is repurposed as the Chef’s Table.

The idyllic, covered outdoor terrace, seat 150s, and blends the sights and smells of Tel Aviv with the bustling Buena Vista neighborhood. Curran’s 45-foot tall mural, greets guests with retro patterns and colorful vignettes inspired by Tel Aviv. Looking up, a kaleidoscope of yellows, blues and greens created by the restaurant’s colorful stained-glass ceiling sets the vibe for the unique dining experience, with fixtures like hand-crafted terrazzo-top tables and reclaimed synagogue benches, while guests dine with upcycled 1970’s original cutlery and pastel ceramic plates.  

Photo via @branjamiami

Branja’s menu pulls inspiration from around the globe, while incorporating the signature spices and flavors of generational Israeli recipes. Dishes will change seasonally, as Branja sources ingredients locally. Intentionally light and designed for sharing, signature dishes include Fish & Bread, a flavorful ceviche style appetizer, and fresh takes on classics like Falafish, a Falafel and juice fish hybrid and Fishwarma, made with a spiced fish mix that includes fatty salmon and grouper to emulate classic shawarma. Other creative dishes include Krouv - “Cabbage” in Hebrew - which, through a four stage preparation, mimics a slow cooked short rib. Guests can also opt for the Mama Ligua,  a fresh corn polenta with caramelized leeks and truffles. Branja is a Kosher-style restaurant, and Kosher meat dishes include Tuktuk Kebab - a Branja favorite that uses Thai-inspired ingredients - tamarind glaze and a herbaceous seasoning - for a perfectly sweet and sour ground meat; Beef Tarpaccio, which elegantly melds classic beef tartare and carpaccio; and  Orthodox steak, a premium quality Glatt Kosher ribeye. To end on a sweet note, Branja showcases a selection of addictive desserts, including Layali Beirout, a modern take on a Lebanese classic, and Halva Crack Pie, which plays on familiar forms and nostalgic flavors distinctive of Israel. 

Photo via @branjamiami

Guests can pair their meal with a libation from Branja’s selection of high end and premium signature cocktails, such as the colorful Purple Rain, made with za’atar infused tequila and butterfly pea, and rimmed with salt and dry za’atar as an ode to a classic Margarita; and the Paloma & Yaya, a raisin infused Arak paired ginger and grapefruit to give nostalgic hints of a casual Tel Avivian evening.

Branja is located at 5010 NE 2nd Avenue in Miami and is open for Dinner Tuesday through Saturday from 6 p.m. to 11 p.m. For more information, please call 786.765.5555 or visit branjamiami.com.

How To Celebrate National Espresso Day

Annabella Pardo

Happy National Espresso Day! Can you imagine a world without such a glorious and uplifting drink, we certainly wouldn’t want to. The origin of the word 'espresso' came from the espresso machine. This name was given by two men, Luigi Bezzera & Desiderio Pavoni, in Venice, Italy, who after years of tweaking their coffee making machine came up with a newer model in 1903. They called the coffee made with a newer machine - cafee espresso.

Remember to always start off with Un Espresso Per Favore!

Perc of Art

By Craft Mixologist Chelsea Solkowski on behalf of Saxtons River Distillery

1oz Perc Coffee Liqueur by Saxtons River Distillery (Available on TotalWine)

.5oz Saxtons Maple Liqueur

1oz Shot of Espresso (roughly 1 oz)

2oz Vanilla Vodka

Grated Cinnamon

—Martini Glass

(Build this recipe in a cocktail shaker)

  • Add 1 oz Perc Coffee Liqueur, .5 Saxtons Maple Liqueur, 2 oz of Vanilla Vodka of your choosing, and one shot of Espresso.

  • To obtain the desired foam on top of martini, shake it more than you think you should, and then some!

  • Immediately strain into a martini glass and garnish with a sprinkle of grated cinnamon

  • ** Optional, add a dollop of *homemade maple whip cream!

Chelsea’s Tips:

-To make the Maple whipped cream — in a shaker or a mason jar, add 6 oz of heavy whipping cream and 1 oz of maple syrup. Shake this until desired consistency! Be careful not to shake past the point of whipped cream, as you will begin to make butter.. (not the worst accident you’ll ever have!)

-Consider creating your own vanilla vodka! Simply choose an unflavored vodka and add 1 vanilla bean per liter. Let sit in a cool dry place. Results will be noticeable within 24 hours, however the longer you wait, the more flavor you’ll get.

Led by Janet Diaz-Bonilla, the first Cuban-American immigrant woman to found and own a rum brand, La Marielita Rum is a proud collaboration of Janet Diaz-Bonilla and fellow Cuban rooted masterminds Francisco José “Don Pancho” Fernández Pérez, also known as the Godfather of Rum and artist Humberto Benitez.

La Marielita Rum is inspired by the 1980 Mariel Boatlift, an exodus initiated by a political movement where thousands of Cubans sought refuge at the Peruvian embassy. At six-years-old, Janet Diaz-Bonilla, alongside her parents, embarked on a journey from Mariel, Cuba to Key West, Florida, only to be transferred upon arrival to a holding camp for 53 days before being awarded their freedom. Janet embarked on this journey to craft La Marielita Rum to honor and celebrate hard work, dedication to family, and gratitude for freedom.

As CEO and founder, Janet brought together a team that defines and embodies Cuban heritage. Together Janet and world-renowned Cuban Master of Rum, Francisco José “Don Pancho” Fernández Pérez, skillfully formulated a rum with a distinctly unique bouquet of aromatic flavors distilled in Las Cabras de Pesé, Panama.

“I am fortunate to have the opportunity to collaborate with one of the world’s most gifted and respected master blenders and artists to tell my story through a genuinely delicious tasting experience,” says Janet Diaz-Bonilla. “We take great pride in the final result of our premium rum and are excited to share La Marielita Rum with the world.”

Acclaimed Cuban-American artist, Humberto Benitez, shares the founder’s roots and understood the importance of illustrating an image that encompassed the sentiments and authenticity of La Marielita’s story for the bottle’s label. “The painting I created for the label art of La Marielita Rum is a story of hope, determination, boundless spirit against the odds, and the beauty of those who carry that spirit over the horizon,” says Humberto Benitez. La Marielita Rum is aged in Bourbon curated American white oak casks for at least 18 Years with no additives or artificial flavorings. With a burnt toffee and oak aroma, the rum gradually transitions into cacao flavors as it grazes the palate; with layers of vanilla, coffee bean and orange blossom lingering, it then evolves into tenors of hazelnut and chocolate and ends with a smooth and balanced finish.

La Marielita Rum (SRP: $59.99) is currently available in Florida, California, and New York and also available nationwide at https://lamarielita.com/shop/.

First Look At The Luxurious The Perigon Miami Beach

Annabella Pardo

Perfectly positioned on 200 linear feet of pristine oceanfront, The Perigon, a diamond-shaped building designed by international architecture firm OMA, has released a first look at its hotel-style amenities private to owners, offering an unprecedented level of service and experiences in Miami Beach. Blurring the line between condominium and resort, the inspiring spaces were thoughtfully designed by Tara Bernerd, one of the most sought-after hospitality designers in the world, to deliver a palatial lifestyle evocative of a five-star hotel. Bernerd leveraged her decades of experience designing iconic properties from Belgravia to Vienna to create over 20,000 square feet of amenities that provide both exclusivity and an idyllic setting for connection and socializing.

“When we first launched The Perigon, our buyers were struck by the tower’s remarkable design that is seemingly afloat above lush gardens,” said Camilo Miguel, Jr., CEO of Mast Capital. “The architecture’s slender columns, soaring lines and wraparound terraces maximize the indoor-outdoor experience, and we had a clear vision to use this additional space to bring resort amenities and experiences into the condominium setting. With reservations successfully converted to contracts, and incredible demand for the limited remaining inventory, we’re proud to reveal how The Perigon’s amenities are as impressive as the residences themselves, and a true extension of one’s home. The amenity collection will cultivate a community for private owners to enjoy this enriched everyday lifestyle together; with every need being met by a team of butlers and expert concierges ready to make any request a reality.”

For the design of The Perigon’s amenities, Bernerd looked to the building’s masterful architecture. Residents arrive through a grand yet inviting lobby featuring honed white travertine flooring in a diamond pattern, a nod to the building’s distinctive shape, and finished in an Italian stone trim to connect to Miami’s natural textures. Warm, organic and bright, the interiors evoke the same sophistication as the European Riviera, a design choice inspired by the many seaside travels of The Perigon’s future residents.

“We envisaged the residents at The Perigon to be well travelled, design-savvy and highly cultured,” said Tara Bernerd. “We have created interiors that speak to the architecture of the building, with a conversation between interior and exterior design, that would appeal to this individual and their penchant for an international design sophistication. The amenity collection epitomizes this ethos, with finishes and furnishings chosen to evoke a refined relaxation, so that it truly is a destination in and of itself. 

The amenities in this initial reveal are located on two levels and include a highly anticipated spa, featuring a mixture of materials and fabrics selected both for their authenticity to the area and their connection to sought-after natural environments.  A billiards room was designed by Bernerd as a refreshing, mature approach to a game room. The warmly lit space is located just off the lobby and features a floor-to-ceiling glass interior wall to invite participation and spectatorship. The building’s signature diamond pattern is repeated here via its clever wood flooring. The sunrise lounge and hospitality kitchen stay consistent with the building’s soft and natural color palette, with light wood paneling and a dramatic stone bar for entertaining and private events.

An awe-inspiring indoor-outdoor conservatory doubling as a breakfast lounge and terrace stands apart as one of the most hotel-like amenities at The Perigon. Residents will start their days in the serene, dedicated space, where a barista will be available upon request to serve hot or iced coffee to a resident’s liking. The staff at The Perigon will always ensure that every owner’s ideal daily morning routine, from reading the local paper to enjoying sunny-side-up eggs, will be realized.

“The conservatory on the north side of The Perigon will be a dreamy, light-filled space encased in glass with lush garden views,” Bernerd said. “We were influenced by the notion of a shared breakfast area, which is an amenity you rarely see in condominiums, incorporating a wood floor inlaid with diamond-shaped white travertine inserts, as a contemporary take on iconic country house floors.”

The wine room and garden on the building’s south side is another unique space inspired by serenity, with views overlooking the property’s waterfall garden. The space will keep nearly 450 bottles of the most refined wine selections in stock and will offer storage services to residents with their own prized collections. A top sommelier will be on hand to host private tastings both at the bar and in the garden, while a celebrated chef will design a variety of pairing menus depending on the season. Bernerd continued, “We envisioned a room where the world’s finest wines will be enjoyed and stored and designed interiors that evoke this level of exclusivity.”

The Perigon features an expansive collection of amenities in addition to the spaces newly revealed. This includes a resident-only oceanfront restaurant, speakeasy bar, oceanfront swimming pool, poolside cabanas and sunbeds, a terraced fitness center with ocean views, children’s playroom, private salon and a screening room.

Starting at $4.15 million, The Perigon offers 72 two- to four-bedroom condominiums ranging from 2,100 to 6,700 square feet, with eight private guest suites offered to residents only. The project is expected to break ground in early 2023.

The Perigon is a joint venture between Mast Capital, one of South Florida’s most active real estate development and investment firms, and Starwood Capital Group, a leading global private investment firm. Sales and marketing are exclusively handled by Douglas Elliman Development Marketing.

One Sip And It's All Clear: The New Gran Centenario Cristalino

Mary Delano & Annabella Pardo

Gran Centenario, Mexico’s #1 tequila, proudly announces the U.S. launch of Gran Centenario Cristalino. Founded in 1857 by Lazaro Gallardo, the first ever Tequila Master Distiller in history, Gran Centenario is rooted in over 150 years of Mexican heritage and tradition and continues to expand its historic family portfolio with this exquisite new release.

Handcrafted in the highlands of Jalisco, all expressions of Gran Centenario (Plata, Reposado, Añejo, Leyenda, and now, Cristalino) are produced with 100% Blue Weber Agaves at Ex-Hacienda Los Camichines. Expertly crafted using the brand’s proprietary process, ‘Selección Suave’ - in which newly rested tequilas are blended with the smoothest aged reserves - Gran Centenario Cristalino uses the finest Añejo and Extra Añejo tequilas matured in American oak barrels. A first for the brand, the blended aged tequila is then finished in Calvados casks for a few months, before being filtered through a meticulous process with Mexican silver, transforming the aged tequila into a crystal-clear liquid. The resulting spirit has the smoothness and depth of an aged tequila, with hints of fresh apple and oak coming from the Calvados cask finish.

“It’s an exciting time for the Tequila category in the U.S., with new and existing tequila enthusiasts increasingly seeking out more premium products with different elements in finishing and aging,” said Alex Coronado, Head of Production and Master Distiller at Gran Centenario Tequila. “Gran Centenario Cristalino is a remarkable spirit and marks the first time we have finished our tequila in Calvados casks, and used silver in our Cristalino filtration process. Producing an unparalleled taste to any other tequila out there, the result is a clear tequila, rich in notes of sweet agave, toffee, fresh apple, and oak.”

Gran Centenario Cristalino arrives in the U.S as the Cristalino category experiences exponential growth. First introduced in Mexico over a decade ago with the help of Coronado, Cristalino makes up over 35% of the high-end tequila category, and the U.S. is starting to see similar potential. As the latest offering from Mexico’s number one selling tequila, Gran Centenario Cristalino offers a truly transformative, smooth yet complex profile from the very first sip.

● Sight: Flawless clarity with hints of silver.

● Aroma and palate: Sweet notes of cooked agave and toffee aromas with a touch of fresh apple, and oak.

● Finish: Long, complex, and ultra-smooth.

Available for purchase nationwide at select fine liquor stores, restaurants and bars for a suggested retail price of $79.99 USD (750mL / 80 proof), Gran Centenario Cristalino is best enjoyed neat or on the rocks with a lime twist. For more information, please visit www.grancentenario.com or follow on Instagram and Facebook at @grancentenariotequila.
