On February 27, the Ritz-Carlton, South Beach celebrated the opening of its newest restaurant, bistro One LR. The invite-only opening of the pool-level restaurant was presented with Miami magazine-who contributed their chic guest list to the attendance. Actually open since January, the restaurant debuted in conjunction with the announcement of the hiring of the hotel's new general manager, Timur Senturk.
Formerly the Americana, the restaurant was totally renovated before the new year and now features new decor and, most importantly, a revamped menu, compliments of chef Bernardo Espinel, known for his Latin American cuisine paired with French influences.Upon arrival, the nearly 400 guests were offered one of the evening's three signature drinks: the Tres Chic Martini, the Kumquat Mojito Royale, and the Muy Caliente Marguerite, all made with Veuve Clicquot Champagne and 10 Cane Rum-two of the event's sponsors. Outside, on the deck, So Cool Events set up lit high-top tables for guests to congregate around while enjoying the delicacies served out there. Additionally, a fire dancer and contortionist performed poolside throughout the evening, courtesy of the Paul Shewchuk Company.
Food stations were set up throughout the space with a variety of dishes, including escargot, beef carpaccio, crab cakes, ceviche, hand-rolled sushi, and more. All of the food was perfectly paired with free-flowing glasses of Champagne.
