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.
For those not into clicks, beeps, and bass, Ultra Music Festival was a two-day electronic dance music festival that brought a sold-out crowd of 75,000 ticket holders a day to Bicenntenial Park’s festival grounds.
From 3 p.m. to midnight the throngs of hungry, dayglowed, bikini’d, shirtless, tattooed, and sunglassed masses converged on various food courts for everything from paella to pizza, burgers, corn dogs, fries, and even the famous Chef Jeremiah Bullfrog’s Gastropod menu.
Bullfrog, who has catered Ultra the past four years, had a vendor tent in the general festival area for the crowd, and his Airstream Trailer kitchen in the private artist’s lounge. From there, his team cooked walkup orders for DJs, dancers, and industry folk, and shuttled delivery orders to artist trailers on a high-speed golf cart. We ran into Bullfrog on his way to deliver sandwiches with Stupid Slaw to Nas. He also made an Ital feast with salmon for Damian Marley.
