Jason Momoa + Blaine Halvorson Bring Meili Vodka to Mirabella at Fontainebleau Miami Beach

Written By Jennifer DeCillis

Meili Vodka co-founders Jason Momoa and Blaine Halvorson recently hosted an industry happy hour with Mirabella Coastal Italian by Michael White at Fontainebleau Miami Beach.

At Mirabella, Michelin-starred Chef, Michael White, brings authentic coastal Italian cuisine to the Fontainebleau. Located at the base of the resort’s Sorrento Tower and instantly defined by its glamorous David Collins Studio design, Mirabella is a celebration of Italian cuisine and Chef White’s 25-year culinary journey, beautifully blending Chef White’s passion for fresh flavors with traditional dishes that pay homage to Italy’s rich culinary heritage. Mirabella’s menu is thoughtfully designed for sharing, featuring generous, family-style portions to ignite conversations and appetites.

Guests enjoyed signature Mirabella cocktails featuring Meili Vodka as Momoa and Halvorson spoke to the origin of the brand and even poured some drinks behind Mirabella’s bar.

Mirabella’s Head Chef Michael White and Executive Chef Paul Keyser created a menu of light bites such as wagyu beef skewers, Hamachi crudo with mussel vinaigrette oscietra caviar, and gnocco fritto with pistachio pesto mortadella and whipped robiolina.
