Get ready, foodies! The original and oldest established Palm Beach restaurant month, Flavor Palm Beach, is right around the corner. It started in 2007 with only 10 restaurants and has grown to an epic showcase of more than 50 diverse establishments from Boca Raton to Tequesta, serving up mouthwatering three to five-course meals. Listen in as we get the inside scoop from Flavor Palm Beach owner, Kerri Paizzi, about this community event that not only offers a spectacular dining experience but also boosts local businesses during the slow-paced month of September.
Our culinary exploration doesn't stop there! This episode was filmed at one of Flavor Palm Beach's participating restaurants, La Masseria. Join us as we dive into the tale of Peppe Iuele, one of the owners, and his inspiring journey from Capri, Italy to New York, and now here in Palm Beach Gardens. Peppe brings authentic, traditional Italian flavor and hospitality to South Florida, and we're lucky enough to get a taste. From discussing the unique dishes and decor, including the massive wine wall that tells a unique story, it's a delicious journey you don't want to miss.
Peppe tells us about some of La Masseria’s most popular dishes like the homemade stuffed mozzarella prepared fresh every day, and the show-stopping Sgroppino, an Italian cocktail with vodka, lemon sorbet, Prosecco and fresh mint. You'll also get insight into their unique wine selection, featuring a large variety of wines, and we even had a taste of an Arneis from Piedmont, Peppe’s favorite region in Italy.
You’ll also learn what the Flavor Palm Beach menu will be at La Masseria: a 3-course dinner, featuring a choice of appetizer, main dish, and dessert, for an incredible deal of just $45! With selections such as fried zucchini flowers stuffed with ricotta, and smoked mozzarella, homemade ossobuco ravioli with mushrooms and dry marsala, and homemade tiramisu, it’s bound to be one meal you will never forget.
Flavor Palm Beach starts on September 1st — make sure this is on your calendar! Year after year, it just keeps getting better. All of the participating restaurants and menus can be found online at flavorpb.com. Let's embark on this flavor-packed journey through Palm Beach County's finest restaurants together.
