After a long night partying at Carsten Höller’s Prada Double Club Miami, I mustered the strength to tackle the other Miami Art’s Week’s behemoth, Art Miami. After a fulfilling and highly rewarding day perusing stunning modern and contemporary art at the fair, I quickly changed into a retro Pucci outfit and went straight to one of the very best restaurants in Miami Beach. It’s simply called “27” after its location on 27th street. Situated in a beautiful 1930s Art Deco building, the restaurant is part of the Freehand hotel and grounds, soon to open a location in New York City. The legendary Broken Shaker bar is also located on the Freehand premises and its world-renown cocktails, relaxed ambiance and cool vibes make it a prime destination for Basel aficionados. I met with the co-owners and visionary founders Danya Hachey and Elad Zvi for drinks and a fabulous dinner. After that, I went to Soho House for an electrifying evening of dance networking at their Soho Beach House Tent. It was too much fun for one day, I swear!
