First Class Autosports

I not only had the pleasure to shoot this amazing new garage, but I am now also a client, as I had them take care of tinting and interior/exterior protection on my new car!  I was very impressed with the quality of the workmanship as well as the very high quality of the product used.

Thomas Kramer’s Labor Day Pool Party

Just an average weekend in South Beach, at a home Robin Leach called “The Most Expensive Party House in the world.”  The day was complete with a visit from a guy with A FREAKIN JETPACK!

Hogzilla’s Inspired BBQ – South Beach

This new restaurant was so damn delicious I don’t even know where to begin.  I was first invited to the restaurant for a family style dinner sampling on opening night.  I didn’t know what to expect and I was blown away with what was to come.  Our first starter was Maple Syrup Marinated Bacon w/ a side of vermont syrup….  it was sacrilicious! After came Fried Green Tomatoes w/ Texas Pete Aioli & Mac and Cheese Croquetas, which were both as good as they sound.  Next came the Pièce de résistance, an entire suckling pig!  This thing is marinated whole and slow roasted/smoked for almost 3 days!  After presenting it, and after one of our guests ripped a leg off and started gnawing on it, they took it back to the kitchen to slice it up before bringing it back.  I couldn’t believe how juicy and tender the pork came out. Add to that one of their BBQ sauces and it was an unbeatable dinner.  The meal was topped off with a bacon infused chocolate cupcaked topped with a chocolate ganache and candied bacon…..   its even better than it sounds.

I was impressed enough that I wanted to go back and try a few more dishes, so I did a couple days later.  I started with a Frito Pie; frito chips, crumbled chorizo, smoked okra dip, sharp cheddar and scallions.  This reminded me of something I might’ve thrown together in college, only a bit fancier.  I loved the presentation; serving it in a Frito bag.  For dinner I had a BLT, made with their maple marinated thick cut bacon, fried green tomatoes and romaine lettuce on texas toast w/ texas pete aioli.  As I’m not a fan of raw tomatoes, this was probably the best BLT I have ever tasted.  It wasn’t enough though and I also ordered a Spam Sandwich.  It was a homemade molasses glazed spam, seared and topped with cheddar and a sunny side up egg on texas toast.  I have never actually had canned spam, so I cannot compare it to the real thing, but this sandwich was pretty damn delicious.  It was a unique flavor and one of the best and most unique sandwiches I’ve ever had.  I think I’ve rambled on enough, so here are the photos!
