Haute Living took to MILA Miami in Miami Beach to celebrate CEO Kamal Hotchandani’s birthday. The Mediter-Asian restaurant is known for its fusion of Mediterranean and Asian food, and its mixology bar and lounge created a sophisticated atmosphere that everyone loved with florals provided by Alore Event Firm. The rooftop lounge offered a beautiful oasis of space for guests to celebrate, complete with fire performers, a sparkler presentation, and a Louis XIII toast.

When guests arrived, they were treated to an intimate opening cocktail reception where there were a wide variety of wines available as well as signature cocktails such as the Margarita Verde and the Kwant. This was followed by dinner which included many MILA staples such as appetizers of avocado guacamole and black rice crackers as well as tuna tartare and roasted fennel-tofu aioli. The main course included robata whole branzino with lemon thyme Vierge and flambée with herb liquor, ‘shawarma’ wagyu gyoza with butter ponzu, and delicious sushi rolls such as the spicy hamachi roll. Guests also enjoyed the fire performers as entertainment while they dined.
