Equally compelling is the SOBEWFF® dinner at BH Prime at The St. Regis Bal Harbour Resort, designed for those who appreciate bold flavors and a strong culinary point of view. Legendary Italian butcher Dario Cecchini, a global ambassador of Tuscan cuisine, joins forces with Adrian Colameco, executive chef of BH Prime, to present a menu rooted in tradition, fire-driven cooking, and modern interpretation. From classic cuts to unexpected preparations, the evening celebrates respect for ingredients, craftsmanship, and timeless sophistication in an intimate, exclusive setting.
