The highly anticipated VIP reveal party titled “MIA Exposed” introduced a multisensory experience for those visiting Miami’s newest culinary and entertainment destination. Upon arrival party-goers took in the sights of brilliant colors which serve as the base for the décor of the 14,000 square foot venue. Guests sipped signature cocktails provided by Imperia Vodka and specially prepared by MIA’s mixologists. A main focus of the night included sampling selections from executive chef Gerdy Rodriguez’s globally inspired tapas menu. Some of the popular passed bites included the signature MIA sushi roll, Kobe Sliders with brioche and shoestring potatoes, Serrano Pizzettes, Chicken and Steak “pinchos” and Chef Gerdy’s biggest seller – the Serrano ham and Manchego cheese croquetas.

Providing the soundtrack for the soiree, were internationally renowned DJ George Morel spinning, award-winning actor/singer Jencarlos Canela and American Idol’s Christina Christian performing live. Other notables in attendance included the Mayor of West Miami Cesar Carasa, Commissioner Rebeca Sosa, Commissioner Tomas Regalado and Mayor of Hialeah Julio Robaina – all of whom presented the owner of MIA, Luis Arias, with a proclamation to the city.
