In anticipation of the 18th year of the Miami Spice Restaurant Program, the Greater Miami Convention & Visitors Bureau (GMCVB) introduces the second Mash Up of the culinary series, a collaboration between Chef Michael Beltran of Ariete and Chef Victoriano Hernandez of Fooq’s. The duo will join forces to create a menu that pairs Ariete’s New American style with Fooq’s Persian-French influences to highlight dishes from their upcoming Miami Spice menus in advance of the August 1, 2019 kickoff.

The one-night-only dining experience will take place on Thursday, July 18, 2019 at Ariete, Chef Michael Beltran’s culinary gem in the idyllic Coconut Grove neighborhood. The three-course meal – featuring two dishes per course, one from each chef – will allow diners to experience the globally influenced cuisine that has won the hearts and stomachs of Miami diners. Priced at $55 per person (excluding tax, tip and additional beverage purchases) the dinner is inclusive of cocktails from Miami Spice sponsors Stella Artois, JNSQ Rose, JNSQ Sauvignon and ABSOLUT® JUICE Strawberry & Apple – brought to you by Planet Earth’s Favorite vodka.

Seating is limited; reservations must be made in advance. To do so, please email [email protected].

Ariete is located at 3540 Main Highway in Coconut Grove. Metered street parking in nearby lot available. Dinner begins promptly at 7PM.
