Chocolate and fruit, are such a delicious pairing (although I consider chocolate a fruit — it grows on trees, right?) and Papageno’s is going to explore it with bubbles and port, of course, in a class on Thursday, March 20 beginning at 6 p.m.
Taste seven amazing chocolates, all paired with bubbly or port for $25 a person. For more information, go to papagenoswap.com, or better yet, stop in the shop at 1201 N. Federal and see how wonderful the store is.

How About A Little Sugar Cane?
The brainchild of a quartet of Miami food and beverage veterans, including Michelle
Bernstein and David Martinez, the duo behind several of Miami’s favorite hot spots including Cafe La Trova, Sweet Liberty, and the newly opened Sra. Martinez, La Cañita (which means little sugar cane) is a spirited restaurant and bar concept featuring a bold, flavorful menu of Latin Caribbean staples and innovative specialties. La Cañita serves cocktails and has a vibrant decor anchored by bright colors and lively music. In short, La Cañita is everything you’d expect from a venue that feels so definitively South Floridian.
Lending much flavor to the new year, the flagship location of this concept opened its doors in February at the Palms of Town & Country in the heart of Kendall.
Rosemary's Baby
The much-anticipated opening for Rosemary’s Miami has arrived! The beloved Italian neighborhood restaurant from New York City is now open in the heart of Wynwood (322 NW 25th Street). The brainchild of Casa Nela hospitality group founder/owner Carlos Suarez, Rosemary’s Miami is a bit of a homecoming for the Cuban-English restaurateur, whose family called Miami home for close to 20 years. “The foundation of Rosemary’s concept is comfort, a space to step out of your busy life for a moment and enjoy delicious food at affordable prices in a place that evokes the feel of the Italian countryside.”
