‘Supper Club on the Sand’ Returns to Formula 1 This Year May 4th-7th

Formula 1 at Hard Rock Stadium

Miami will once again host Carbone Beach at Formula 1, a restaurant pop-up that is as extravagant as pop-ups come, from May 4–7. The Miami Beach “supper club on the sand” was developed by Major Food Group in collaboration with American Express. Meals prepared by Mario Carbone and a star-studded attendance will all be taking place during Miami Race Week.

Each of the four nights, location TBD, costs $3,000 per participant. Visitors can now request a table (for eight to 14 people) or a place on the waiting list by visiting CarboneBeach.com. Individual tickets will be made available on Resy on April 6, with AMEX Platinum and Centurion cards receiving first access.

More caviar, extravagant seafood towers, enormous dry-aged steaks, unique new dishes, and crowd-pleasing classics can all be found at this year’s Carbone Beach, which may bring back memories of dining at Carbone in South Beach, New York City, Las Vegas, Dallas, Hong Kong, or Doha. Cocktail hour will be the first part of each evening, followed by a seated dinner.

Last year, notables including David Beckham, Serena and Venus Williams, LeBron James, Hailee Steinfeld, Jamie Foxx, and many more were among the throng that were wowed by performers Andrea Bocelli, Wyclef Jean, Kygo, and Chloe Flower. Additionally, previous year’s evenings featured intricate ice sculptures, race vehicles, and extremely upscale fare like enormous caviar cones.

Jeff Zalaznick, a co-owner of Major Food Group, received a key to the city from Miami Beach Mayor Dan Gelber at Carbone Beach last year. “We’re always trying to push the limits of what we can do,” he adds. “Last year was a spectacular success that astounded and delighted everyone. The evening genuinely straddled the line between a Great Gatsby-style dinner party and a fantastic show. The cuisine and everything else we did last year will thus be improved upon. The craziness will increase this year. It will be more luxurious and exclusive. American Express is a fantastic partner, and we are excited to work with them once more.”

710 NE 29th Street-Major Food Group's New Tower in Edgewater

Major Food Group and Terra Development Partner on New Condo Tower in Edgewater-The Villa

710 NE 29th Street-Major Food Group's New Tower in Edgewater

Major Food Group and Terra Development have announced their collaboration on a new waterfront development in Edgewater. Located at 710 NE 29th Street, The Villa, is planned to include 50 residential units.

In 2021, an application was filed with the Federal Aviation Administration for a 57 to 60 story tower at the proposed development site. The plan originally called for the demolition of two residential structures that are now located at 710 Northeast 29th Street and 530 Northeast 29th Street, just across from the Biscayne Beach Condominium.

Unknown who applied for the tower, but the lot’s existing zoning allows for a considerably taller multi-family building comparable to nearby new construction like Missoni Baia and Elysee Miami, all of which reach heights of 649 feet above sea level.

Harbor 29, a five-story condominium building with 15 units that was constructed in 1972 and is currently located at 710 Northeast 29th Street, occupies a plot of land that is around 12,600 square feet. The building occupies the entire corner of the ensemble and has the longest waterfront frontage.

On the other hand, 530 Northeast 29th Street, a 2-story residential structure with around 10 units on a 6,300-square-foot lot, was constructed in 1954. No recent sales of any units or property in general have been closed, according to Miami-Dade County’s Property Appraiser, so after receiving FAA approvals, the undisclosed developer will probably need to buy out the current owners to put together the assemblage, which should total close to 19,000 square feet.

Last year, Major Food Group was partnered with JDS Development for a supertall tower located in Brickell named 888 Brickell.

Contessa Italian Restaurant Opens in Miami Design District

The upscale, well-known Italian concept Contessa has officially debuted in the Miami Design District thanks to Major Food Group, the renowned hospitality company that is responsible for bringing Carbone, Rao’s, and Dirty French Steakhouse to Miami.

Contessa is a classic yet utterly modern Italian restaurant created by MFG Co-Founders and creative powers Jeff Zalaznick, Mario Carbone, and Rich Torrisi. It is inspired by the old-world refinement of Northern Italy’s famed villas and estates.

Visitors at Contessa Miami can begin their dinner with one of the several antipasti starters, which include Proscuitto, Chianina beef carpaccio, and squash carpaccio. Of course, the menu features a number of sumptuous pasta dishes, such as the fiery lobster cappelli, the tortellini in broth, the rigatoni carbonara, the fusilli Genovese, and the rigatoni carbonara. Entree choices include grilled branzino, the traditional veal Milanese, and a 40-ounce dry-aged Fiorentina steak. The meal is finished with a variety of sweets such as gelato and cakes with pistachio, amaretto, and gianduja chocolate.

Contessa’s original location made its debut on the rooftop of The Newbury Boston last year, and it rapidly established a reputation as one of the most opulent and outstanding Italian restaurants in America.

It was hailed as the city’s “crème de la crème” of restaurants by the opulent publication Boston Common. Boston Magazine has also raved about the restaurant stating that it is one of the best Italian restaurants in the city.

Contessa Miami promises exquisite Northern Italian cuisine in addition to MFG’s renowned warm, charismatic, and polished hospitality, which is specially tailored to the city the company has called home since 2021. At that time, the company began a historic run of restaurant openings in the area, including ZZ’s Club in the Miami Design District and Sadelle’s in Coconut Grove.

Over 40 restaurants, pubs, hotels, and private clubs are now managed by the organization across the world. The company has numerous new openings scheduled for South Florida over the next six months, in addition to Contessa Miami and a variety of upcoming projects in the United States and internationally.

The restaurant is open for lunch and dinner and is housed in a two-story building in the renowned neighborhood at 111 NE 41st Street.
