Tamara & Michael Schwartz

Miami, FL – February 23, 2017 – One of South Florida’s most widely recognized culinary innovators made a rare Food Network & Cooking Channel South Beach Wine & Food Festival appearance to celebrate a decade of his much touted Michael’s Genuine Food & Drink. It was a must-stop for both locals and tourists from around the world as Michael Schwartz took a leap on the burgeoning Design District neighborhood 10 years ago to start his empire. Now settled smack in the middle of one of Miami’s hautest areas, Schwartz’s flagship restaurant anchors the array of culinary attractions offered there. Joined by culinary luminaries Marc Vetri and 2016 SOBEWFF Tribute Dinner Honoree Jonathan Waxman, Schwartz and friends presented guests with a sampling of the signature tastes with the staying power they’re known for.
