Don't miss this signature event of the Festival!
Originally hailing from Albany, Georgia, Paula Deen has established herself as the reigning queen of Southern Cuisine through her Food Network show Paula’s Home Cooking and her highly regarded restaurant The Lady & Sons in Savannah, Georgia.

Joining him in the Fog City’s makeshift east coast kitchens and each preparing a course are Tyler Florence, Richard Reddington and Thomas McNaughton. After the meal, Cigar Aficionado magazine is sponsoring a special cigar bar on the gorgeous pool deck.

Former South African President Nelson Mandela often said, "I was shaped by the cultural traditions and values of my ancestral roots.”
His daughter Makaziwe and granddaughter Tukwini took inspiration in those words when they created House of Mandela Wines to capture the soul and energy of South Africa.
Join Makaziwe and Tukwini as they put on an amazing night showcasing their wines with foods that are the perfect pairing. Be one of the first people to enjoy House of Mandela wines during an intimate dinner at The St. Regis Bal Harbour, one of South Florida’s most unique hotels located at the most exclusive enclave in Miami Beach.
Micah Edelstein, chef/owner of Nemesis, a boutique bistro in Miami’s upper Eastside, will craft the menu along with the help of St.Regis Chef de Cuisine Richard Gras and Pastry Chef Antonio Bachour specifically to bring out the best qualities of several varietals from the House of Mandela wine collection.
Micah hails from South Africa and appeared as a contestant on Top Chef Season 3.
While Nelson Mandela changed the world with his words and actions, his family hopes people will enjoy the wines when they come together to share stories, lessons and the spirit of unity.

If you’ve ever wondered if the glass makes a difference, here is your chance to find out! Matt Rutkowski, VP of Spiegelau sales, will lead a glass tasting featuring Spiegelau’s beer connoisseur set. You will taste and compare four different beer styles in different Spiegelau beer glass shapes. At the end of the tasting, the glasses are yours to keep.
Whether sharing a few pints with friends or on an endless pursuit to find the most exceptional ale, Spiegelau beer glasses are the essential vessels to make each brew taste even better. As more and more people are finding the fun in exploring the nuances of various types of beers, the craft beer industry is enjoying a growing cachet and distinction similar to fine wines. And like wine, beer tastes better when in the right glass. This set of four glasses includes the stemmed tulip, the tall pilsner, the wheat beer glass, and the lager glass. With shapes designed to showcase varying flavors of the grains, yeast and hops, channel the aroma and preserve the frothy head and volatiles, this kit is ideal for the serious beer drinker or the budding aficionado. Spiegelau’s Beer Connoisseur Kit glasses are made of durable crystalline and are dishwasher safe.
Spiegelau traces its glass-making roots back to 1521 in Spiegelau, Germany, tucked in the primeval forest of Bavaria. For almost 500 years, Spiegelau has created glassware known for its sleek design, durability and strength. Today, Spiegelau beer glasses represent German craftsmanship at its best.
The BREW FIU brewing club composed of current and former students from Florida International University’s Chaplin School of Hospitality & Tourism Management will brew all of the beer served at this seminar. Funds raised from previous Festivals have gone toward the construction of a state-of-the-art teaching restaurant at the school, which will feature an on-site brewing science laboratory.

Join CNN’s Anthony Bourdain for a screening of “Jiro Dreams of Sushi”, the story of 85-year-old Jiro Ono, considered by many to be the world’s greatest sushi chef. After the movie, a delicious sushi and sake reception with sushi provided by Katsuya by Starck will enterian guests as Bourdain answers questions about the film.
The film closely examines the restaurant that Jiro Ono operates--a 10-seat, sushi-only diner located in a Tokyo subway station. Despite its humble appearances, it is the first restaurant of its kind to be awarded a prestigious three-star Michelin Guide rating, and sushi lovers from around the globe make repeated pilgrimage, calling months in advance and shelling out top dollar for a coveted seat at Jiro’s sushi bar.
The film originally premiered in the Tribeca Film Festival and was directed by David Gelb.

Champagne Perrier-Jouet
Since its beginning in 1811, much remains the same at the House of Perrier-Jouët. Born from a passionate affair between Pierrer Nicolas Perrier and Adèle Jouët, the house’s artistic, rarefied, ethereal, pleasure-loving spirit has infused every vintage produced by the company from the very first to the most recent. Such a spirit is perhaps best epitomized by the anemone design on the bottle created by master glassmaker Emile Gallé, the legendary leading artist of the Art Nouveau movement.
Over the past two hundred years, a line of only seven Chef de Cave have shared a single goal, which is to delight the senses with the superb grape, and do display its depth and complexity. Hervé Deschamps, Chef de Cave since 1993 and current guardian of the Perrier-Jouët legacy, shares the philosophy of the master craftsman as an artist.
Experience the rich heritage and tradition of the House and experience a guided tasting of the full range of the Perrier-Jouët Champagnes including the bouquet of Belle Epoque Brut, Belle Epoque Rosé and Belle Epoque Blanc de Blancs.

Champagne Lanson – “Non-Malolactic is the Style of the Future”!
The Lanson house style is the fruit of an historic heritage and the transmission of a specific “savoir faire” over more than 250 years since 1760 built on three specific pillars: fruit, power and freshness.
Contrary to the majority of Champagne houses, the house of Lanson decided in the 1970’s to perpetuate the tradition so as to preserve the unique style of its wine by blocking the malolactic fermentation. As a result we produce wine of nearly endless aging potential!
That amazing Vintage Collection is now available for a very restricted circle of wine lovers in search of a passionate wine experience. Let’s revisit the Lanson House Style through some of its most amazing vintage years and enjoy the benefit of drinking non-malo.

Lanson Black Label Brut NV

Experience an extraordinary tasting of six rare and historic vintage Amarones from the cellars of the world-famous Bertani estate. This remarkable property was founded over 150 years ago by brothers Gaetano and Giovan Battista Bertani. Collectors and connoisseurs the world over recognize Bertani as the preeminent producer of Amarone, the legendary red from the vineyards of the Veneto in northeast Italy. Over the decades Bertani has led the way in forging an international reputation for Amarone, whose skillful vinification illustrates Italian winemaking at its best. Few producers age their Amarone as long as Bertani, whose harvest originates entirely in the firm’s extensive estate vineyards. Headquartered at the palatial Villa Novare near Verona, Bertani is a treasure trove of vintage Amarone and Recioto wines. Underground cellars at Bertani’s nearby Grezzana property provide ideal conditions for storing fragile older vintages.

What do oysters and wines have in common? Complex flavors, the Old World and the New, cultural touchstones, aphrodisia, and a connection between taste and place. In wine, textures and flavors that come from specific growing regions is called terroir. For bivalve aficionados, merroir is the equivalent concept, one that our experts from Island Creek and USHG will explore thoroughly in this class. Each guest will recieve two oyster samples of five different species of oysters at the peak of their season, each paired meticulously with wines from the Winebow portfolio by Union Square Hospitality Group wine director John Ragan, and a different sauce or treatment. Island Creek Oysters founder Skip Bennett and Island Creek Oyster Bar chef Jeremy Sewall have prepared seafood dishes to accompany these pairings as well.

“The fame of heroes owes little to the extent of their conquests and all to the success of the tributes paid to them.”
- Author Jean Genet
Loews Miami Beach Hotel is proud to host the Tribute Dinner honoring Nobu Matsuhisa and Christophe Navarre with Mistress of Ceremonies Martha Stewart presented by Bank of America.
Nobuyuki "Nobu" Matsuhisa (松久 信幸) is a celebrity chef and restaurateur known for his fusion cuisine blending traditional Japanese dishes with South American ingredients. Nobu owns and operates 35 restaurants worldwide. He became a sensation with movie stars and celebrities when he opened his first restaurant Matsuhisa in Beverly Hills in 1987. Shortly after, Nobu partnered with Robert DeNiro for a location in Tribeca, which became the critical anchor to his fledgling worldwide success.
Christophe Navarre is the Chief Executive Officer of Moët Hennessy. He joined Louis Vuitton Moët Hennessy in 1997 as President and CEO of JAS Hennessy & Co, building the company’s world leadership in the cognac industry. In 2001 he was appointed CEO of Moët Hennessy, the Wines and Spirits division of LVMH. He is also a board member of the Comité Colbert and a member of the Heineken Advisory Board as well as Chevalier of the French Legion of Honor, a Commandeur de l’Ordre du Mérite Agricole and an Officier de l’Ordre de la Couronne in Belgium.
This tribute dinner will feature the dishes of some of the world’s most renowned chefs, each of whom will personally oversee the cooking and preparation of his or her appointed course. These chefs will be responsible for every aspect of the food served, and the meal will embody the quality expected of the finest three-star restaurants. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to partake of the creations of multiple chefs whose restaurants span the globe and who likely will never contribute again to a single meal of this caliber. Chefs scheduled to prepare a course are: Daniel Boulud, Thomas Buckley, Frederic Delaire, Ricky Estrellado, Matt Hoyle, Johnny Iuzzini, Yoshihiro Murata, Yuji Wakiya and Roy Yamaguchi.
Serving as Mistress of Ceremonies for the evening will be Martha Stewart. Stewart is a past SOBEWFF Tribute Brunch honoree. She is a domestic goddess whose knack for entertaining, educating and making people smile has given this domestic goddess a culinary empire unmatched by anybody.
Past Tribute Dinner and Tribute Brunch honorees include the Robert Mondavi Family, Ferran Adrià, Eric Ripert, Jean-Georges Vongerichten, Emeril Lagasse, Daniel Boulud, Alain Ducasse, Charlie Trotter, Marchese Piero Antinori, Mr. and Mrs. José Ferrer Sala, Jamie Oliver and Martha Stewart.

Cloudy Bay Sauvignon Blanc - An Evolution of Two Styles
Cloudy Bay Vineyards was established in 1985 by Cape Mentelle, the Western Australian winery, which today is a part of the Moët Hennessy Wine Estates.
The company farms 140 hectares of vines at three carefully selected sites. Vineyards planted in 1986 surround the winery in the Wairau Valley at Rapaura, with additional plantings at nearby Renwick and in the Brancott Valley, in the southern foothills. Five long term contract growers also work closely with Cloudy Bay.
The main varieties grown are Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay and Pinot Noir with lesser quantities of Riesling and Gewurztraminer. The average annual crush is 1200 tons.
Featured Wines:
Numanthia: A Century in a Glass. Discovering the Icon of Toro
Bodega Numanthia was founded in 1998 by the Eguren familly to produce the best wine from Toro. The estate is located in Valdefinjas, a small village of Toro in Northwest Spain. The wines have delighted critics since the first harvest. Key to the success is the production and selection of the best grapes from Toro. Grapes from low-yielding old vines are hand-picked at optimal ripeness when they are intensely fruity and concentrated. Winemaking then focuses on extracting the full potential, particularly the intense fruit flavors typical of Tinta de Toro, as well as structure and elegance.

For the Festival's southernmost event, we’ve lined up more than a dozen chefs and local Miami friends, each with his or her own special preparation technique that’s sure to take pig roasting to a whole new level. Swine & Wine hosted by Michelle Bernstein is a chance for amateur and professional pig slayers to showcase their own secret blends of rubs and spices on the Duroc & Hampshire breed of pigs, which are all natural, farm-raised and known for being super tender. We’ve tasked our pit masters with bringing out well glazed, perfectly done whole roasted pigs from the caja china served alongsidevarious side dishes of their own invention. Master of Ceremonies Univision’s TV personality and resident food expert Raul de Molina

Food Network's resident culinary rockstar, Guy Fieri is teaming up with reggae legend Ziggy Marley for a closing party concert the likes of which SOBEWFF has never seen before! The iconic white tent behind The Ritz-Carlton, South Beach will fill with love in the air.
Known for his Food Network shows Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives; Guy’s Big Bite and most recently Rachael vs. Guy Celebrity Cook-Off, Guy will kick off the ceremonies and keep the crowd pumped between sets while Ziggy introduces Ziggy Marley Organics™, a organic line of the World’s First flavored coconut oils and roasted flavored hempseeds.
Ziggy Marley’s Coco’Mon™ oils are the World’s First Flavored Organic Coconut Oils in four delicious varieties (Original, Orange Almond, Lemon Ginger and Curry). Ziggy Marley’s Hemp Rules™ hempseeds are the World’s First Roasted Hempseeds and come in three varieties (Caribbean Crunch, Sea Salt & Pepper and Shelled).
Chef Cindy Hutson along with her partner Delius Shirley from Ortanique on the Mile in Coral Gables, will showcase their Cuisine of the Sun by Ortinique using the Coco’Mon™ Oil and hempseeds while preparing native Rastafarian dishes like patties, fritters, I-tal, Toto and Blue Drawers and MUCH MORE! Cindy and Delius have invited two friends from Jamaica to prepare additional bites for the night. Chef Ana Kaye Tomlinson from "Miss T's kitchen" will be doing fantastic simple vegan items while Gari Ferguson the Chef / Owner at G's Que will so authentically prepare pigs, chickens and jerk on the grill that you’ll think you’ve been whisked away to Kingston.
Ziggy is the son of Jamaican Legend Bob Marley. He will play his tunes and reminisce to the ‘Good Old Days’ with jams from his late father’s albums as well. It’s the perfect way to say goodbye to Miami’s favorite weekend, and start the countdown until the chefs invade the beach once more.
