Gibson Miami host Benefit

March 6, 2012 By Eleanor Hoh 1 Comment

Gibson Show Benefit for the Cindy Kidney Fund 
$10 cover…all you can drink
This Saturday, March 10th
Doors open 8pm…show starts 9pm
showcasing Rock ‘n’ Roll sensation, Poetic Justice with Brad Berman
during Wynwood Art Walk

Go for a good cause, rock n’roll music, all you can drink and fantastic chance to get inside Gibson showroom! It’s not normally open to the general public.  Gibson’s new showroom is opposite the Cynergi Building in Wynwood. Brad Berman, their project coordinator has such a big heart, his band will be playing to raise funds for a kidney transplant for friend, Cindy.  Gibson will be hosting some future Wok Star events there, so stay tuned (got the pun?)

Go a bit earlier to view some incredible wall murals outside.

See signed guitars by celebrities, tour recording rooms, view some LeBo art and hang out.

Here’s the plan, go early to Wynwood, see some art, stop for some nosh at food trucks in Wynwood.  Some other nosh ideas:

– Sakaya Kitchen for anything in a bao, it’s fast, all good! 
(my go to modern Asian that never disappoints!  My suggestions here and here, enjoy!)
– Gigi’s for some noodle dish 
(here’s a very early post, since then I’ve had a few quite delicious noodle dishes & I heard their duck fried rice is delish! Another foodie friend @frodnesor take on Gigi!)
– Lost and Found Saloon for fabulous burrito
(my new twitter/blogger friend @fatgirlhedonist said all the things I would have said about their food & saloon.) 
– Jimmy Z’s Kitchen right opposite Gibson
(not eaten there but heard healthy, good. Here’s my foodie friend @foodalogue, Joan’s post which makes me want to go NOW!  Joan also reflects my same philosophy about not not using recipes or measuring, I love her writing and her experiments are creative and thought provoking, check her blog!)

Then hop over to Gibson for the all night rock n’ roll with Poetic Justice!  See you there…

Gibson Miami Showroom (in the Dorissa Bldg.)
2751 N. Miami Ave. Suite 8
Miami, FL 33127
door on 27th st. side of the bldg will be open
free street parking all round

COCONUT GROVE ART FESTIVAL: CULINARY PAVILION
Monday, February 20: 3pm
Free Wok Star demonstration with festival admission

I love this festival (check event guide), folks are so attentive and great to interact with. Sadly, the director of this culinary festival, Gary Cuica passed away suddenly last year. My demo will be a tribute to him.  I was always so honored he included me in his roster as I’m the only one who is not a chef or own a restaurant! He was a Johnson & Wales culinary graduate himself and a huge foodie. I miss his friendship, he was always so supportive and would suggest ways to increase my business. Come and see me as well as many other wonderful chefs and talks. Quick mention to Chef Hugh of Irie Spice who I became friends with at this festival, definitely check out his delish Caribbean food. An honor to be featured photo for the Culinary Arts page on their website!
