REED GROWS

Tiffany & Co.’s Greenhouse is popping up at Aventura Mall from July 16 to August 20. Located near its boutique at the center, the life-size installation celebrates recent home and jewelry collections under the vision of the brand’s new chief artistic officer Reed Krakoff. Collectors can purchase miniature versions of the greenhouse made of solid sterling silver, copper and glass in Tiffany’s hollowware shop. Several female artists such as Laurie Simmons, Shantell Martin and Marilyn Minter, pictured, were commissioned for works incorporating the garden “gem.” Other home and garden wares include terra-cotta flowerpots in Tiffany’s signature turquoise blue and a witty, sterling silver bubble blower. Krakoff’s first jewelry collection for Tiffany, Paper Flowers, is also on display at the boutique. As the name implies, pieces emulate childhood arts and crafts.

CARACAS COOK

Alto, one of Venezuela’s culinary treasures, expanded to Miami in the form of Obra Kitchen Table. El Bulli-trained toque and founder Carlos Garcia splits his time between his original in Caracas, which often ranks among Latin America’s top 50 restaurants, and his new baby in Brickell. Rather than molecular gastronomy, his pretty U.S. outpost on the bay focuses on cocina sabrosa—everyday dishes done with his professional flair. Centered on a Josper charcoal grill, the menu’s daily specials range from slow-cooked pork pernil to short rib asado negro. He also uses it to cook a rack of lamb served in a plantain mole aside fried eggplant. Whet your appetite with a Mexican-style negroni, which substitutes gin with mezcal and adds a splash of carrot and blood orange juice (pictured)
