Miami Beach, FL – February 22, 2013 – With all the big scale South Beach Wine and Food Festival events last week, Lacoste offered a much more intimate approach to get to know two major food and wine insiders. Jennifer Baum from Bullfrog & Baum moderated Candid Discussions with Industry Insiders, where she got to chat with Food Network Chef Marc Murphy and restaurateur Danny Meyer of Shake Shack and other NYC favorites from Union Square Hospitality Group. Baum picked their brains in front of a small group, who got Shake Shack delivered hot off the grill just down the block from its neighbor Lacoste. Afterwards, Meyer took to some shopping around the new store and picked out some fresh polos.
