| Here's a flavor punch to get you started |
You won't be running into any of your friends from Occupy
Miami at the
Villa by Barton G. The one-percenter stronghold is heavily secured, full
of Versace's original designs, and
marked in more gold, mosaic, and fresco than the palace of a Russian
Czar. If anybody in Miami could take the house Gianni built, and make it
moreso, it's Barton G. The dude has polished the Ocean Drive mansion
till it shines brighter than a gold brick in the sunshine. Executive
Chef Jeff O'Neill takes that gold and uses it to plate some of the best
food in Miami. Here's what we saw in the kitchens and on the property.
