Treat your honey to an evening of gilt-y pleasures at Downtown’s uber luxe Marquis Residences, where on Saturday chef Michael Shikany will kick off a fancy-schmancy winemaker’s dinner series with a 10-course orgy of food and Laurent-Perrier champagne.
Presented by Gilt City Miami, the feasting begins poolside with munchies and champagne, then heads 67 stories up toe the Marquis Penthouse. There you’ll find even more champagne (natch) paired with dishes like lychee molecular caviar, terrine of foie gras and morels, mac ‘n’ cheese with vanilla butter-poached Maine lobster, and a three-for-all dessert of chocolate, olive oil gelee and Maldon sea salt.
To better rub your friends’ noses in your guilty pleasures, everyone will get a Flip videocam, so you can, as the event’s website says, “Load the pics onto your laptop, share them on Facebook or Tumblr, and make your friends jealous.” You can make your friends even jealouser by showing off the contents of your complimentary (natch) goodie bag.

Will you step up to support New Times this year?
At New Times, we’re small and scrappy — and we make the most of every dollar from our supporters. Right now, we’re $17,250 away from reaching our December 31 goal of $30,000. If you’ve ever learned something new, stayed informed, or felt more connected because of New Times, now’s the time to give back.
