Carbone Beach back for the 2023 Miami Grand Prix
You can’t spell “carbs in Formula 1” without Carbon.
The Italian restaurant’s $3,000-a-head dinner in the sand will be “bigger and better” when it returns to the Miami Grand Prix in May, Page Six has learned.
Major Food Group, the creative force behind the celebrity-favorite restaurant, has once again teamed up with American Express for the second annual Carbone Beach as Formula 1 returns to the coastal Florida city.
“Last year was such an incredible event, from the food to the people to the music, that really this year our goal is to take it even further and make it even better,” said Jeff Zalaznick, co-founder of Major Food Group. exclusively.
Zalaznick teases that the four-night extravaganza will be “more over the top, more exciting, more indulgent, more luxurious and more exclusive” this time around.
We’re told that each evening will begin with a hosted cocktail followed by a seated dinner with a menu curated by Chef Mario Carbone.
Guests will enjoy classic Carbone dishes and live entertainment for the steep price of $3,000 per person. The dinner will be held May 4-7 from 7:30 p.m. to midnight and individual tickets will be available for purchase by American Express Platinum Card and Centurion members on April 6.
Zalaznick notes that he thought last year’s event was a “huge success.”
“We were thrilled with the crowd, and it was great to see such an amazing group of people come together,” he says. “The demand we’re already seeing is so crazy because they saw what it was last year.
“No one knew what to expect last year. Now people know what level we deliver.
