About Chelsea Market
A block long and a block wide and just a short walk from the Hudson River in the area of Manhattan known as the Meatpacking District, Chelsea Market has become in just fifteen years one of the greatest indoor food halls of the world, with more than thirty-five vendors purveying everything from soup to nuts, wine to coffee, cheese to cheesecake. Attracting 6 million national and international visitors annually, it is one of the most trafficked, and written-about, destinations of any kind in New York City. Chelsea Market is a neighborhood market with a global perspective.
The area has always been the locus of food in the city, beginning with the Algonquin Indians, who traded their game and crops on the banks of the Hudson River at this same spot. The trains of the High Line once served the wholesale butchers who lined the streets beneath the tracks and cooled their provisions with blocks of Hudson River ice, and the National Biscuit Company established its factory—now reclaimed as the Chelsea Market—here to take advantage of the butchers’ lard in the nineteenth century. This long history—and the stripped-down brick architecture of the building—gives the Market a unique character. For foodies and even casual tourists, it is possible to enter the Market at one end in the morning and not exit the other until lunchtime, without ever growing bored—and certainly without ever going hungry.
The UNESCO Creative Cities Network is pleased to welcome the following cities within its seven creative fields (Crafts and Folk Art, Design, Film, Gastronomy, Literature, Media Arts and Music):

The results of this year’s Call bears witness to the Network’s enhanced diversity and geographical representation with 22 cities from countries not previously represented.
If beverages symbolized memories, hot chocolate would be at the forefront of youth; the nostalgia of childhood brimming in each rich, frothy cup. Timeless, simple, and universally delicious, hot cocoa serves as a “comfort drink” of sorts — a reminder to unwind, to appreciate the little things, and to savor every last drop. As we embark on the snowfalls and holidays surrounding the winter months, avoiding stress and maintaining clarity of mind often become arduous tasks.

At The Four Seasons Miami
Chef Aaron Brooks embraces a sustainable approach to agriculture and dining. The concept is simple, farm to table food is fresher and healthier. Chef Brooks grows and harvests produce from his garden located on the two acre pool terrace.
Four Seasons Hotel
I love how all of these hotels are so unique. We are here for Art Basil Miami, and how appropriate that Four Seasons Miami began collecting art a decade ago.
Colombian-born sculpture Fernando Botero is one of 40 Miami and Latin American artists, these artists can be found throughout the hotel.
I love the feet.
Other artists include renowned Venezuelan painter Jesus Rafael Soto, Cuban multi-media artist Jose Bedia, to edgy up-ans-comers such as Daniel Arsham, Tao Rey and Bhakti Baxter
Joe's Stone Crab – Seafood Restaurant Since 1913
A must when visiting Miami.
In 1913, Joe Weiss opened up a small lunch counter on Miami Beach. This was before Miami Beach was even a city. Folks stopped in to chat and for a top-notch fish sandwich and fries. This, of course, was only the beginning, and what happened next is a story worth telling. Click below for more of the story.
Stone Crabs, when caught, one claw is taken, the crab is put back in the sea and grows a new one… Sustainable food.
Rock Shrimp tacos… Yum
Grilled tomatoes
