Independent Journalism in Miami Needs You
We need to raise $10,000 by August 9 to support the reporting our community depends on. Reader support keeps us independent and is playing a larger role in funding local journalism and shaping what comes next. If you believe independent local journalism matters, make a contribution today.
With all the crazy shit people have done only a month into the New Year you might call 2011 the Year of the Asshole. To the Chinese, however, it’s the Year of the Rabbit, which will be celebrated at Café Sambal at Brickell Key’s uber-swanky Mandarin Oriental hotel. There will be a lion dance, Asian music, complimentary fortune telling and a good luck packet, as well as Asian style delectables like assorted dim sum, pepper-crusted Kurobuta pork with noodles and black mushrooms, and Peking duck. In Chinese culture, the rabbit supposedly signifies all that is wise, serene and considerate, qualities in pretty short supply in this year’s assholes.
