Miami, FL – February 26, 2016 – An intimate group got to experience a first-look at Joël Robuchon’s upcoming concepts to Miami’s Design District as part of the 15th annual Food Network & Cooking Channel South Beach Wine & Food Festival presented by FOOD & WINE. The world’s most Michelin-starred chef to date made his first appearance at the festival and gave guests a sneak peek at his signature L’Atelier, Le Bar, La Boutique and La Terrace concepts coming soon to the elegant backdrop of the Design District. All proceeds from the Festival benefitted the Chaplin School of Hospitality & Tourism Management at Florida International University.
