It’s Turkey Month!!!<br />
As we comfortably settle into our South Florida Fall, we<br />
prepare for cooler temperatures, look forward to wearing<br />
sleeves and boots, and hosting our visiting relatives. It’s no<br />
secret that Thanksgiving is THE busiest traveled holiday of the year.<br />
Delray Beach is chock full of outdoorsy things to do with<br />
friends and family - many wonderful activities to help burn off<br />
the overindulgence of Turkey Day. According to research from the<br />
Calorie Control Council, the average American may consume more<br />
than 4,500 calories and a whopping 229 grams of fat during a traditional<br />
Thanksgiving dinner with turkey and all the trimmings!<br />
Need ideas? Check out Nicol Jenkins’ article on Thanksgiving<br />
activities in Delray Beach, and our must read regular features:<br />
Delray Under $50 by Darien Arden, Locals Only, Gotta Know, and<br />
Happenings. You might see some of your neighbors dressed as Pilgrims,<br />
Native Americans and Turkeys at the 30th Annual Delray<br />
Beach Turkey Trot!<br />
Every month we interview a City Person. This month Diane<br />
Feen had the pleasure of spending time with Major Joseph M. Bernadel.<br />
This retired military officer has accomplished huge feats in<br />
his life, including but certainly not ending with Co-Founding the<br />
Toussaint L’Ouverture High School for the Arts and Social Justice.<br />
His story is inspirational, as is his dedication to education and our<br />
beloved City of Delray Beach.<br />
While traveling during the winter season may not be a Floridian’s<br />
idea of fun, there are many advantages to consider! Look<br />
inside for “10 Reasons To Travel To Europe In Winter” and see if<br />
we can’t sway you to explore. When you go, don’t forget to take<br />
<strong>Atlantic</strong> <strong>Ave</strong> <strong>Magazine</strong> with you! Take a photo and submit it to<br />
info@atlanticavemagazine.com and you’ll be entered in a drawing<br />
for a gift card to a restaurant on the <strong>Ave</strong>! Make sure the subject<br />
line reads “On Vacation with <strong>Atlantic</strong> <strong>Ave</strong>.”<br />
<strong>November</strong> may be Turkey Month, but let’s face it folks, after<br />
you’ve had turkey sandwiches, turkey salad, turkey casseroles,<br />
etc...you might be in the mood for something else. Rocky’s Italian<br />
Bistro & Bar will not disappoint. The menu offers traditional Italian<br />
food as well as innovative dishes with an international flair<br />
- and decadent homemade desserts. Saturdays are a special treat,<br />
with live music and entertainment. Our Restaurant Review will<br />
entice you to dine at Rocky’s.<br />
We all have many reasons to be grateful. We at <strong>Atlantic</strong> <strong>Ave</strong><br />
<strong>Magazine</strong> would like to thank our loyal readers and advertisers,<br />
from the bottom of our hearts for allowing us to do what we love<br />
month after month - year after year. Let us be thankful for our<br />
blessings big and small everyday, not just on Thanksgiving.<br />

Florida redevelopment over the past year.<br />
This year, the Delray Beach CRA and<br />
the City of Delray Beach were honored<br />
for the US-1/Federal Highway Beautification<br />
Project. The former Delray US-1/Federal<br />
Highway corridors, in stark contrast<br />
with other downtown streets, had narrow<br />
sidewalks and minimal landscaping,<br />
which promoted high speeds, leading to<br />
triple the statewide crash rate within the<br />
main commercial core. Through the US-1/<br />
Federal Highway Beautification Project,<br />
the Delray CRA was able to reconfigure<br />
the existing roadway to reduce one travel<br />
lane in each direction to accommodate<br />
on-street parking, a bike lane, and wider<br />
landscaped sidewalks.<br />

and award, please contact the Delray CRA<br />

Volunteer Delray Brings<br />
Non-Profit Organizations And<br />
Potential Volunteers Together<br />
Event is Set for <strong>November</strong> 4 -5 p.m. to<br />

Delray Students First’s Mark Sauer (right)<br />

Annie PEPPER<br />
Mark Sauer knew he’d found two outstanding<br />
volunteers for his non-profit<br />
organization when he met Les Kraft and<br />
Caron Chalstrom.<br />
Sauer, founder and chairman of the<br />
board of Delray Students First, didn’t know<br />
what to expect last year when he went to<br />
the Delray Beach Chamber of Commerce’s<br />
Volunteer Delray event, hosted by the organization’s<br />
Non-Profit Council.<br />
What he discovered were more than 50<br />
other organizations providing information<br />
about volunteer opportunities, along<br />
with dozens of visitors from throughout<br />
the community looking for places where<br />

they could volunteer their time.<br />
He also found Kraft and Chalstrom, volunteers<br />
who fit perfectly with Delray Students<br />
First, an organization that provides<br />
college-placement tutoring for lower income<br />
students.<br />
“That was our first year at Volunteer<br />
Delray and we found two really special<br />
and important volunteers who bring a lot<br />
to the table,” Sauer said.<br />
So it comes as no surprise that Sauer<br />
will be back when the Non-Profit Council<br />
hold its Fifth Annual Volunteer Delray<br />
event on Friday, Nov. 4 from 5 p.m. to 7<br />
p.m. at Old School Square.<br />
This year’s Volunteer Delray will feature<br />
a variety of non-profit programs serving a<br />
broad array of needs. Set up on the west<br />
lawn at Old School Square, the event takes<br />
place prior to the Free Friday Night Concert<br />
featuring Big City Dogs, which begins<br />
at 7:30. Both events are free and open to<br />

{<br />
Now that Delray Beach is a rising star in the art, culture and social<br />
scene, it might seem a little difficult to find affordable activities, shops<br />
or restaurants. I am here to prove you wrong. Delray Beach offers a mix<br />
of high-end boutiques with laid-back restaurants, and events for the<br />
whole family or nightclubs for night owls. Here is what you can do in<br />
Delray Beach in <strong>November</strong> for $50 or less.<br />
Good food, green spaces and glorious<br />
weather? Count me in. <strong>November</strong><br />
is Picture Book Month<br />
and also the best time to create a picture<br />
perfect post-summer Saturday enjoying<br />
the sights and smells of the cooler months.<br />
The Delray Beach GreenMarket is back<br />
and <strong>November</strong> is the first full month of local<br />
shopping for the “winter” season. Held<br />
every Saturday this month, the GreenMarket<br />
features all the fresh and local goods<br />
that you’ll need for the entire week. Think<br />
farm-to-fork produce, eggs and milk,<br />
grass-fed beef, poultry, pork and lamb, gluten-free<br />
baked goods and more. You also<br />
can’t forget the homemade soap, fresh-cut<br />
flowers, plants and other unique market<br />
goods that are also available. Not to<br />
mention, there’s always live music,<br />
plenty of samples<br />
22 <strong>November</strong> <strong>2016</strong> | www.<strong>Atlantic</strong><strong>Ave</strong><strong>Magazine</strong>.com<br />
and oodles of dogs to pet, so it’ll round out<br />
to be a pretty perfect Saturday, you just<br />
watch. The Winter GreenMarket, back for<br />
its 21st season, is held at the Old School<br />
Square Park, so head downtown and spoil<br />
yourself with your community members’<br />
toils. Old School Square Park is located<br />
at 50 N.E. Second <strong>Ave</strong>. and is open from 9<br />
a.m. to 2 p.m. Visit www.delraycra.org or<br />
call (561) 276-8640 for more information.<br />
In the land of discount websites, there<br />
is no reason we should pay full price<br />
for anything. However, if it comes<br />
down to paying full price in an enjoyable<br />
environment or paying less<br />
in the mall full of people,<br />
the enjoyable environment<br />
is victorious any<br />
day. Thankfully, now you<br />
can have both. National<br />
Deal Week is <strong>November</strong><br />
23 through 29<br />
and you have the<br />
blessed opportunity to visit the 17th Annual<br />
Downtown Delray Beach Thanksgiving<br />
Weekend Art Festival where you can<br />
score some homemade arts and crafts<br />
for less trouble and expense than the<br />
mainstream way. This annual juried art<br />
festival features hand-crafted artwork<br />
including glass, photography, painting,<br />
mixed media, fiber, jewelry and more, all<br />
from hundreds of vendors that are dotted<br />
along Northeast Fourth <strong>Ave</strong>nue and<br />
<strong>Atlantic</strong> <strong>Ave</strong>nue. Shopping Black Friday in<br />
an outdoor art gallery? I’ll take it. The Art<br />
Festival is held <strong>November</strong> 26 and 27 from<br />
10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and admission is free<br />
so you’re starting off with a deal already.<br />
Visit www.artfestival.com or call (561)<br />
746-6615 for more information.<br />
The holidays are the best time to<br />
spend with family because everyone<br />
is generally happy, there’s plenty of<br />
cheer, and extended family comes into<br />
town. If you’re looking for a great way<br />
to give back as a family unit, gobble your<br />
way to the start line because you’ve got<br />
a 5K to run. Family Volunteer Day is <strong>November</strong><br />
19 and that is conveniently the<br />
same day as the 30th Annual Delray<br />
Beach Turkey Trot<br />
5K Run and Walk.<br />
You’ll start the race<br />
at Anchor Park and<br />
trot along A1A while<br />
you enjoy the beautiful<br />
sunrise<br />
and beach<br />
breeze.
It’s a great way to partner together as a family, go the extra<br />
mile with matching outfits (think about it), and make some<br />
room for the quickly approaching Thanksgiving food extravaganza.<br />
Registration begins at 6 a.m. and the race is at<br />
7:30 a.m. Fees range from $10 to $25 and all proceeds benefit<br />
the Keith Straghn Feed the Hungry Thanksgiving Drive<br />
and Wheels from the Heart organizations. Gobble, gobble,<br />
we’re going family, and it’s going to be delicious. Anchor<br />
Park is located at 340 S. Ocean Blvd. Visit www.mydelraybeach.com<br />
or call (561) 243-7277 for more information.<br />
I<br />
love, love the rally, but it’s that match point with a good<br />
grunt that brings it home - especially when the crowd<br />
has a loud, unanimous exclamation. Watching (or playing)<br />
sports as a family is always a great pastime, and definitely<br />
where some great family stories are created. Tennis<br />
is one of the best of those sports, and thankfully we have<br />
the Chris Evert Raymond James Pro Celebrity Tennis Classic<br />
where we can make fun new memories and help other<br />
families make some, too. Since 1989, Chris Evert has spearheaded<br />
an ongoing campaign against drug abuse and child<br />
neglect in Florida and continues to raise money to fund<br />
programs that ensure a bright future for at-risk children<br />
and their families. On top of that, you get to watch celebrities<br />
who have a jovial disposition and microphones battle<br />
it out on the courts, including Timothy Olyphant, Martina<br />
Navratilova, Randy Jackson, Carson Kressley and more. The<br />
Classic is held <strong>November</strong> 18 through 20 and tickets start<br />
at only $20 for general admission per day so get ready to<br />
make some memories with the family. The Delray Beach<br />
Tennis Center is located at 201 W. <strong>Atlantic</strong> <strong>Ave</strong>. Visit www.<br />
chrisevert.org or call (561) 394-2400 for more information<br />
and to purchase tickets.<br />
It doesn’t say “two all beet and chickpea patties, special<br />
dairy-free sauce, lettuce, dairy-free cheese, pickles,<br />
onions on a sesame seed bun,” but I guess I can dig it.<br />
<strong>November</strong> 1 is World Vegan Day and is a good time to take<br />
a staggering look at your meat consumption and give your<br />
body – and the earth – a break. If you haven’t been to The<br />
New Vegan just around the corner, try it out for lunch and<br />
see if you enjoy your afternoon vegan delight. The menu is<br />
large and diverse and includes raw green soup with pureed<br />
chick pea, kale, spinach, celery, lemon, fresh herbs and scallions<br />
and seasons for $8, and quinoa broccoli pasta salad<br />
with organic spring mix, quinoa pasta with broccoli, sun<br />
dried tomatoes, tossed in veganaise and tomato, with herbs<br />
and seasoning for $14. If you fancy something more substantial,<br />
try the palm toona melt with hearts of palm mixed<br />
with sweet peppers, fennel, almonds and celery served<br />
with lettuce, tomato, melted cheese on bread for $15, or the<br />
curry plantain with raw, sweet ripe plantains made with<br />
curry, seaweed, tomatoes and scallions for $13. Your tastebuds<br />
are guaranteed to have a flavor explosion and you’ll<br />
find yourself skipping back to work because your body feels<br />
so great. Thanks, plants, we can be pals. The New Vegan is<br />
located at 528 N.E. Second St. Visit www.thenewvegan.com<br />

Volunteers Assist with Beach<br />
Restoration/ International<br />
Coastal Clean Up Event in<br />
Delray Beach<br />
The Institute for Regional Conservation<br />
(IRC) recently held a Beach Restoration/<br />
International Coastal Clean Up Event at<br />
the public beach across from the Marriott<br />
Hotel in Delray Beach. This volunteer day<br />
was part of the Green Grant awarded to<br />
Hari Chittaluru, George Gann, Skyler<br />
Chittaluru, Diana Hileman<br />
IRC by Waste Management through Keep<br />
Palm Beach County Beautiful. The event<br />
focused on restoring biodiversity within<br />
this beautiful dune system by planting<br />
native dune species and cleaning the area<br />
by removing trash and recyclables.<br />
IRC’s Chief Conservation Strategist<br />
George Gann and IRC’s Education<br />
and Outreach Coordinator Cara Abbott<br />
worked with nearly 50 volunteers from<br />
Community Greening, CB&I, Delray Students<br />
First, Cub Scout Pack 315, Hileman<br />
Law, P.A., and the Delray Beach Chamber<br />
of Commerce to make the restoration day<br />
a huge success. Plants added to the dune<br />
system include sea oats, indigo berry, saw<br />
palmettos and silver palms. Volunteers<br />
also collected over 75 pounds of trash and<br />
54 pounds of recyclables off of the beach.<br />

“Almost<br />
By skip sheffield<br />
<strong>November</strong> 4<br />
Ladies and gentlemen, we are entering<br />
the final stretch of <strong>2016</strong> movies. Wouldn’t<br />
you know another movie based on Marvel<br />
comics leads the pack on <strong>November</strong><br />
4. The somewhat strange actor Benedict<br />
Cumberbach plays the title character of<br />
“Dr. Strange.” Cumberbach is an exalted<br />
neurosurgeon who loses the use of his<br />
hands after a car accident. After a period<br />
as a wandering derelict, he encounters<br />
a mystic healer in the Himalayas who<br />
teaches him to tap into psychic power to<br />
battle evil. Rachel McAdam, Tilda Swinton,<br />
Chiwetal Ejiofor and Mads Mikkelson<br />
co-star under the direction of Scott<br />
Derrickson (“Deliver Us From Evil”).<br />
Mel Gibson is back in the director’s<br />
chair for “Hacksaw Ridge.” This is the<br />
true story of Desmond Doss (Andrew<br />
Garfield), an army medic and conscientious<br />
objector who saved 75 men in<br />
Okinawa while getting badly injured<br />
himself. Doss was the first conscientious<br />
objector (he never carried a gun) to receive<br />
the Congressional Medal of Honor.<br />
Vince Vaughn, Sam Worthington, Rachel<br />
Griffiths and Teresa Palmer co-star.<br />
“Trolls;” they are everywhere. This is<br />
a computer-animated feature based on<br />
the popular Danish toys. Anna Kendrick<br />
voices Princess Poppy, the happiest troll<br />
of all. Other voices are provided by Justin<br />
Timberlake, James Corden, Kunal Nayyar,<br />
Gwen Stefani and Russell Brand.<br />
nOVember 14<br />
At least it is not a sequel, but the plot<br />
sounds familiar. In “Arrival” space ships<br />
land around the globe up to no good. Expert<br />
linguist Louise Banks (Amy Adams)<br />
leads a team bent on saving the human<br />
race from aliens. Based on a short story<br />
by Ted Chiang, the cast includes Jeremy<br />
Renner, Forest Whitaker, Michael Stulbarg,<br />
Mark O’Brien and Tzi Ma. Denis Villeneuve<br />
(“Sicario”) directs.<br />
“Almost Christmas” also seems naggingly<br />
familiar. David E. Talbert (“First<br />
Sunday”) wrote and directed this story<br />
of a dysfunctional family attempting to<br />
fulfill the wish of their departed patriarch<br />
to live in peace and harmony for<br />
five days. Gabrielle Union, Danny Glover,<br />
Nicole Ari Park, Omar Epps, Romany<br />
Malco, Kimberly Elise and Mo’Nique are<br />
featured players.<br />
It’s always a pleasure to see Naomi<br />
Watts on the silver screen, especially as<br />
a damsel-in-distress. In “Shut In” she is a<br />
widowed child psychologist living alone<br />
in rural New England, trapped by<br />
a wicked winter storm, trying to<br />
save the life of a young boy (Jason<br />
Tremblay). Farren Blackburn<br />
(“Hammer of the Gods”) directs a<br />
cast that includes Tim Post, David<br />
Cubit, Charlie Heaton and Oliver<br />
Platt.<br />
“Loving” is a double entendre title<br />
about an interracial couple, Richard<br />
and Mildred Loving (Joel<br />
Edgerton and Ruth Negga) who<br />
were jailed in Virginia in 1958<br />
as a mixed-race couple. They<br />
fought all the way to the Supreme<br />
Court, and got Virginia’s miscegenation<br />
laws struck down. Jeff Nichols<br />
(“Mud”) directs and Michael Shannon,<br />
Nick Kroll and Bill Camp are featured.<br />
nOVember 18<br />
If you liked those Harry Potter movies,<br />
you may like “The Fantastic Beasts<br />
and Where to Find Them,” which is an<br />
earlier book by J.K. Rowling, set in 1926.<br />
Ms. Rowling herself adapted her book as<br />
a screenplay, and David Yates, who directed<br />
the last four Harry Potter films, is<br />
director. Eddie Redmayne is world traveler<br />
Newt Scamander, along with Katherine<br />
Waterston, Ezra Miller, Allison Sudol,<br />
Dan Fogler and Samantha Morton.<br />
How well do you know your Facebook<br />
“friends?” “Friend Request” is a thriller<br />
written by German director Simon<br />
Verhoeven that teases with that very<br />
thought. Laura (Alicia Debnam-Carey)<br />
is a college girl with 800 FB friends with<br />
whom she shares intimate thoughts.<br />
Then she accepts a friend request from<br />
a social outcast named Marina (Liesel<br />
Ahlers). When she unfriends Marina, and<br />
bad things start happening to her closest<br />
friends. The cast includes Britt Morgan,<br />
William Moseley and Connor Paolo.<br />
Is “Edge of Seventeen” inspired by a<br />
song by Stevie Nicks? It sure sounds like<br />
writer/director Kelly Fremon took that<br />
Fleetwood Mac song to heart. Nadine<br />
(Hailee Steinfeld) is a high school junior<br />
whose popular older brother takes up<br />
with her best friend. Kyra Sedgwick plays<br />
her clueless mom. Woody Harrelson is<br />
her history teacher and mentor. Blake<br />
Jenner, Haley Lu Richardson and Katie<br />
Stuart co-star.<br />
nOVember 23<br />
“Allied” brought Brad Pitt and Marion<br />
Cottillard together with unexpected results.<br />
Pitt is an intelligence officer behind<br />
enemy lines in North Africa, 1942. Cottillard<br />
is a French resistance fighter. Sparks<br />
flew onscreen and off in this war movie<br />
by noted director Robert Zemeckis (“The<br />
Walk,” “Forrest Gump”). Lizzy Caplan and<br />
Jared Harris co-star.<br />
Warren Beatty is back times three in<br />
“Rules Don’t Apply.” Beatty wrote, directed<br />
and stars as the enigmatic billionaire<br />
Howard Hughes in the Hollywood of<br />
1958. A devout Baptist and beauty queen<br />
Marla Mabry (Lilly Collins) has come to<br />
town as one of Hughes’s protégées, but<br />
she had the bad judgment to fall for her<br />
driver, Frank Forbes (Alden Ehrenreich),<br />
which is a no-no in Hughes’s world. Annette<br />
Bening, Alec Baldwin and Chace<br />
Crawford co-star.

travel ║ European Winter<br />
By Z. Pettican<br />
10<br />
Reasons to Travel to<br />
Europe in Winter<br />
Most people dismiss the idea of traveling to Europe in winter, but<br />
it’s actually a great time to see this region in a different light. As the<br />
temperatures drop so do the crowds and prices making it the perfect time<br />
to visit local attractions at a relaxed pace. The weather might be colder in<br />
the low season, but you can usually find hearty food in restaurants run by<br />
warm and welcoming locals. Europe offers something to suit everyone;<br />
nature lovers, culture vultures and adrenaline junkies will all feel at home.<br />
Here are ten reasons why you should seriously consider a winter trip.<br />
Take advantAGe of lower prices<br />
1 for flights, hotels and shops<br />
Flights can be half the price in the winter<br />
season, and it’s a similar story on the ground<br />
with discounts available at hostels and hotels.<br />
Some of the best deals can be found online<br />
where high-end hotels in smaller cities<br />
often offer special promotional packages.<br />
The only time this doesn’t apply is around<br />
the holidays and New Year when you’ll need<br />
to plan in advance, but are still likely to pay<br />
over the odds. However, a trip booked after<br />
the holidays can soften the blow as it’s the<br />
perfect time to go shopping during the post-<br />
Holiday retail sales which can continue into<br />
early February.<br />
It’s easier to plan at the<br />
2 last minute<br />
It’s almost impossible to book a spontaneous<br />
budget trip in summer, but a low-season<br />
trip can easily be booked just days before<br />
departure (unless it’s Holiday time). Tickets<br />
for flights and land transportation are much<br />
easier to come by, and the same applies to<br />
hiring guides and cars. During high season<br />
in the more popular destinations, the most<br />
in-demand hotels and vacation rentals fill<br />
up months in advance, but in winter you can<br />
even risk arriving without a booking - just<br />
check the hotel is open during winter. It’s<br />
also a cinch to find a table at popular restaurants<br />
and get last-minute tickets for<br />
attractions and festivals.<br />
3It’s easy to escape the<br />
cold and the crowds<br />
The climate is as variable as everything<br />
else about the continent<br />
with northern and eastern Europe<br />
tending to have more extreme<br />
temperatures compared to the<br />
cool temperate, but damp western<br />
countries. This isn’t really<br />
a problem in big cities as most<br />
of the attractions are indoors<br />
and fewer tourists means more<br />
space to yourself. Take advantage<br />
of shorter lines and check<br />
off some of the most famous<br />
sites like the Eiffel Tower, the<br />
Vatican Museum and Anne<br />
Frank’s House. You’ll have<br />
more chance of seeing the<br />
star attraction up close, so<br />
there’s no need to jostle<br />
to see Michelangelo’s<br />
David or stand on<br />
tiptoes to get a<br />
peek of the Mona<br />
Lisa.<br />
Some parts<br />
of Europe don’t necessarily feel like winter.<br />
Head towards the Mediterranean to enjoy<br />
the benefits of low season travel without<br />
frigid winds and icy streets. In destinations<br />
like Sicily, Greece, southern Spain and the<br />
Canary Islands you might even enjoy a<br />
sunny, balmy day or two strolling on the<br />
beach or enjoying a coffee alfresco.<br />
4Soak up the festive spirit at<br />
atmospheric Christmas<br />
markets<br />
Nowhere does Christmas quite like Europe,<br />
after all it is home to Santa Claus<br />
Village in Lapland, along with the prerequisite<br />
blanket of snow and reindeer.<br />
However, away from iconic image of<br />
Christmas bliss you can partake in<br />
yuletide celebrations from Christmas<br />
markets to festivals of lights. Get<br />
your fill of Christmas spirit, not<br />
to mention mulled wine, at one<br />
of the many twinkling outdoor<br />
markets. The smell of bratwurst<br />
and other regional specialties<br />
fill the air as you wander the<br />
gift stalls, listen to carolers<br />
and watch carousels<br />
revolve with happy<br />
children.<br />

Skating in amsterdan canals<br />
5Discover local traditions<br />
and activities<br />
Of course, once the Holidays are over locals<br />
have no choice but to find more fun stuff<br />
to do in the colder months. Visitors can skate<br />
on the canals in Amsterdam, visit ice sculpture<br />
festivals in Belgium and head to Venice<br />
for an all-night Masquerade during Carnival.<br />
In Northern and Eastern Europe winter<br />
swimming is part of the celebration of the<br />
Epiphany and New Year’s Day, like the famous<br />
polar bear plunge at the coastal town<br />
of Scheveningen in the Netherlands. There<br />
are also music concerts, such as Austria’s<br />
Classical Music Festival which takes place in<br />
snow-covered Salzburg during the last week<br />
of January in celebration of local legend Mozart’s<br />
birthday.<br />
6Enjoy delicious winter food<br />
with the locals<br />
So much European food tastes better in<br />
the winter. It seems that classics like fondue,<br />
borscht, Hungarian goulash and mulled<br />
wine were designed with cold winter days<br />
in mind. Cafes are also full of hot winter<br />
drinks and snacks such as cinnamon lattes,<br />
Irish coffee, gingerbread cookies and hot<br />
chocolate made from real chocolate flakes.<br />
Seasonal foods like anchovies, pomegranates<br />
and roasted winter vegetables make delicious<br />
accompaniments to meals. Not only<br />
can you sample hearty meals, but you have<br />
more chance of meeting locals in winter. In<br />
hungarian goulash<br />
summer many cafes are full of tourists, but<br />
during low season, natives clad in coats and<br />
boots reclaim restaurants and cozy pubs allowing<br />
for a more authentic experience.<br />
Take part in some of the<br />
7 world’s best snow-based<br />
sports and activities<br />
Adrenaline junkies are well-catered for<br />
with a huge range ski slopes, along with a<br />
host of other winter activities such as snowboarding,<br />
snowmobiling, and sledding. In<br />
the Southern Alps you can join tours and expeditions<br />
where you build and sleep in your<br />
own igloo and in Norway you can try your<br />
hand at bobsledding. If you want to combine<br />
action with wildlife you could go dog sledding<br />
in Scandinavia or track the footprints of<br />
bears, wolves and lynxes in Romania’s Carpathian<br />
Mountains.<br />
Thermal baths and spas will<br />
8 warm you up<br />
The citizens of the coldest countries in Europe<br />
have found the best ways of warming<br />
up and these methods usually involve baths<br />
or saunas. Iceland is famous for its Blue Lagoon,<br />
which is naturally rich in minerals and<br />
reputed to help people suffering from various<br />
skin diseases. The Szechenyi Baths in<br />
Budapest contain fifteen indoor baths and<br />
three grand outdoor pools, making the complex<br />
a healthy and relaxing way to spend a<br />
winter’s day amid beautiful surroundings.<br />
Similarly, Scandinavia is famed for its Nordic<br />
spas and steamy wood-fired saunas. Alternatively,<br />
treat yourself to a room upgrade in<br />
your hotel and benefit from amenities like<br />
heated bathroom floors, whirlpool baths,<br />
and deep tubs.<br />
Ice hotels and bars prOVide<br />
9 some novel fun<br />
The ultimate winter accommodation<br />
comes in the magical form of ice hotels.<br />
These magnificent structures are created entirely<br />
from ice and packed snow, and feature<br />
snow sculptures and ice carvings. The original<br />
Ice Hotel was built in the sleepy backwater<br />
of Jukkasjarvi, in northern Sweden, but<br />
they can now be found all over the chilliest<br />
areas of Europe.<br />
Following on from the success of ice hotels,<br />
ice bars have become a feature in many<br />
European cities such as Stockholm, Amsterdam,<br />
London, Budapest, and even the<br />
relatively mild cities of Istanbul and Saint-<br />
Tropez. Patrons are usually given special<br />
thermal clothing and gloves before entering<br />
into icy temperatures to enjoy their vodka<br />
cocktails. The ice craze shows no sign of<br />
abating with ice becoming the subject of<br />
many festivals. For example, the Dutch city of<br />
Zwolle hosts a snow and ice sculpture festival<br />
where international artists create unique<br />
pieces of art inspired by a different theme<br />
each year.<br />
Istanbul’s blue mosque<br />
It’s a photographer’s<br />
10dream<br />
Professional and amateur photographers<br />
alike are in for a treat if they visit Europe<br />
at this time of year. It’s possible to capture<br />
instantly recognizable sights in a unique<br />
way, such as Istanbul’s Blue Mosque in a<br />
snow flurry. The subdued winter sun has<br />
a beautiful, atmospheric effect on European<br />
cityscapes. Nothing beats the sight of<br />
medieval rooftops glowing in the light of<br />
a winter dusk or capturing cobblestones<br />
drenched after an evening’s rainfall. There<br />
are some photos, such as the Aurora Borealis<br />
(Northern Lights), which can’t be taken<br />
in summer and represent a once in a lifetime<br />
opportunity.<br />
European countries are diverse enough<br />
to have something for everyone in terms of<br />
culture, aesthetics and adventure. This applies<br />
year-round, and although winter might<br />
be chilly, the coldest places are usually prepared<br />
for the worst and have lots of wellinsulated<br />
and cozy areas to escape plunging<br />
temperatures. Travelers on a budget will<br />
also love the bargain prices and freedom to<br />
be impulsive whilst on the move. It’s the perfect<br />
time of year to blend in with locals and<br />
see the most popular attractions without<br />
the usual tourist crowds. Those who take a<br />
chance on Europe in the low season will be<br />
pleasantly surprised by the diverse opportunities<br />
available and find that winter might be<br />
the best time to visit after all.<br />

Spinal Stenosis<br />
Effective Non-Surgical Treatment Options<br />
By Dr. John Conde<br />
{<br />
Spinal Stenosis is a debilitating orthopedic and neurological disorder which<br />
affects primarily the geriatric population. It is characterized by lower back<br />
pain that can radiate into the legs and produce subsequent weakness.<br />
Often times the weakness is associated<br />
with painful numbness and tingling. A<br />
common presentation is a drastic increase<br />
in pain when the individual is standing<br />
idle, as occurs when cooking or doing the<br />
dishes, or with prolonged walking and almost<br />
immediate relief when progressing to<br />
a sitting position.<br />
Spinal stenosis seems to be greatly misunderstood<br />
in the general population. It literally<br />
means a narrowing of the spinal canal,<br />
the bony structure which houses and protects<br />
the spinal cord and spinal nerve roots.<br />
The occlusion of the spinal canal is typically<br />
caused by one of four distinct entities; congenitally<br />
narrowed canal from birth, tumor,<br />
disc herniation, and or arthritis. By far the<br />
leading cause is arthritis in which bone<br />
spurs and changes in the morphology or<br />
shape of the vertebra lead to occlusion.<br />
Unfortunately, the primary recommendation<br />
for such a presentation as spinal<br />
stenosis is surgical intervention. However,<br />
non-surgical conservative treatment options<br />
have vastly improved over the years and<br />
should be a serious initial consideration before<br />
any invasive procedures. In-fact some<br />
of the most decorated orthopedic and neurosurgeons<br />
in the world are now having their<br />
patients attempt conservative therapies<br />
prior to surgery.<br />
Revolutionary new treatment options<br />
are centered on decompressing the spine<br />
utilizing advanced stretching mechanisms,<br />
applying flexion based trunk exercises, manipulating<br />
the lumbar spine, and applying<br />
class IV cold laser therapy. Due to the fact<br />
that arthritis cannot be removed by any<br />
means, the main objectives of these therapies<br />
are to reposition the spinal joints and<br />
stretch the lumbar ligaments and tendons<br />
so that the canal is physically widened. The<br />
amount of widening necessary to produce<br />
positive long-lasting change is very minimal<br />
and quite attainable. In conjunction with<br />
this, cold laser therapy decreases the healing<br />
time by increasing the metabolism of<br />
the injured cells and by reducing inflammation<br />
and spasm. Therapeutic exercises are<br />
applied to increase strength in the correct<br />
muscle groups so as to reinforce the widening<br />
of the canal. Give non-traditional yet effective<br />
treatment options a chance prior to<br />
any surgical intervention.<br />

Age<br />
Deceleration<br />
By Thomas C. Balshi, M.D.<br />
For many people, the worst part of aging is not how they feel, but the<br />
impact of what they see in the mirror. Aging skin is telltale. If there<br />
were a way to prevent or reverse the lines, dark spots, blood vessels<br />
and wrinkles, growing old would be much more palatable.<br />
The good news is that over the last few years<br />
there have been huge breakthroughs in combating<br />
the once inevitable dismal reflection.<br />
There are more than 100 different theories<br />
about why skin ages. The most prevalent and<br />
scientifically proven is the theory of oxidation,<br />
which suggests that oxygen by-products<br />
known as reactive oxygen species, or free<br />
radicals are responsible for the damaged<br />
look to our outer organ. Superoxide radicals<br />
are responsible for destroying collagen and<br />
elastin which leads to sagging skin, lines and<br />
wrinkles. The oxidants (free radicals) may<br />
cause pigment spots, or even worse, cause<br />
deep cellular damage to DNA leading to skin<br />
cancers. Additionally, UV rays (sunlight) also<br />
accelerate the appearance of aged skin, fre-<br />

quently resulting in skin cancer.<br />
What can one do? First, where<br />
there are oxidants, hit them<br />
with anti-oxidants and neutralize<br />
the free radicals before<br />
they cause damage. This is<br />
called Age Deceleration.<br />
Using sun block prevents the<br />
creation of free radicals, but<br />
now there are powerful<br />
anti-oxidants that<br />
can clean up the<br />
mess that may<br />
have already set<br />
in. One of my<br />
favorite antioxidants<br />
is Red<br />
Tea. There are<br />
many champions<br />
of green tea, but<br />
Red Tea actually has<br />
50 times the anti-oxidant<br />
power as green tea! For many,<br />
this is a “hot” revelation!<br />
Red Tea Serum has been created to specifically<br />
decelerate the aging face. Red<br />
Tea contains epigallocatechin gallate<br />
(EGCG), a compound that belongs to a<br />
unique family of antioxidants known<br />
as polyphenols and Red Tea is one of<br />
the world’s richest sources of a very<br />
special enzyme call SOD- superoxide<br />
dismutase, a prime neutralizer of free<br />
radicals.<br />
With some crafty biochemical maneuvers,<br />
Red Tea Serum was formulated<br />
to penetrate the epidermis and supply<br />
the dermis (where collagen, elastin,<br />
and fibroblasts live) with an abundantly<br />
healthy dose of anti-oxidants. A recommended<br />
daily dose of Red Tea for the face and<br />
a delicious hot cup of tea consumed will be<br />
beneficial for your internal organs as well.<br />
The aging mirror image no longer needs<br />
to elicit frowns; in fact it can be simply blissful!<br />
What springs in the magical Fountain of<br />

Tips for Helping Your Child<br />
Overcome Dental Anxiety<br />
BY Craig Spodak, DMD, PA<br />
{<br />
A positive first experience can lead to<br />
a lifetime of stress-free experiences.<br />
Taking your child to the dentist is necessary<br />
to keep their teeth healthy and promote<br />
excellent oral hygiene habits. While<br />
some children view it as a treat where they<br />
get special, positive attention from the<br />
dental team, a sparkly clean smile and a<br />
goody bag, other children have issues with<br />
visiting the dentist. From a child’s point of<br />
view, visiting the dentist is scary, complete<br />
with lying on a chair in an unfamiliar room,<br />
hearing and seeing unfamiliar noises and<br />
objects, and having a stranger poke around<br />
in their mouth with cold, metallic instruments.<br />
Plus, as your child’s teeth continue<br />
to fall out and grow in, he/she may take at<br />
least 10 trips to the dentist before starting<br />
kindergarten. To help ease future visits for<br />
your child and ensure a positive outlook<br />
overall, follow these steps so he/she feels<br />
more comfortable and relaxed.<br />
Start Early<br />
The American Dental Association recommends<br />
that children be seen on or around<br />
the time their first tooth comes in, which<br />
could be when they are six months or a<br />
year old. This is a great time to get your<br />
child used to the dentist and be familiar<br />
with the sights, smells and sounds of the<br />
dental office. The earlier a child visits the<br />
dentist, the better, and this will set him or<br />
her up for oral care success.<br />
Leave it to the Experts<br />
When talking to your child about the dentist,<br />
avoid telling them that pain will be involved<br />
or insinuate that it will hurt. Dentists<br />
who see children know how to best communicate<br />
with them as to what they can expect<br />
on an age-appropriate level. All you need to<br />
tell your child is that his/her dental team<br />
will be nice and gentle, and is here to help!<br />
52 <strong>November</strong> <strong>2016</strong> | www.<strong>Atlantic</strong><strong>Ave</strong><strong>Magazine</strong>.com<br />
Relax!<br />
Children often pick up on your mood and<br />
will be able to sense your tension. If you<br />
are worried or anxious about taking them<br />
to the dentist, they will more than likely<br />
become worried and anxious themselves.<br />
Instead, remain calm and know that your<br />
child will be seen by professionals who are<br />
experts at communicating with children<br />
and taking care of their dental health.<br />
Be Understanding<br />
It’s normal for children to experience<br />
anxiety when they’re placed in an unfamiliar<br />
environment, so it’s helpful to let<br />
them know that it’s alright to feel anxious<br />
and scared. You can talk with them about<br />
why they are afraid, and let them know the<br />
dental team has their best interest in mind<br />
and will only do the required and necessary<br />
work in a safe environment. The more<br />
understanding you are about your child’s<br />
dental anxiety, the less anxious they’ll feel.<br />
Choose the Right Dentist<br />
It’s important to not only choose a dentist<br />
who is experienced in treating children,<br />
but a dentist that offers a welcoming, clean<br />
environment. Many dentists offer special<br />
sunglasses, overhead screens for cartoons<br />
or movies, massage chairs and toys that<br />
help children feel more at home and relaxed<br />
during their visit. You can even encourage<br />
your child to ask questions about<br />
the treatment or procedure he/she is receiving<br />
because it gives the dental provider<br />
a chance to “tell, show, do,” allowing the<br />
child to feel more in control and aware of<br />
what’s going on.<br />
Overall, it’s normal for a child to feel anxious<br />
about visiting the dentist. But, by following<br />
these tips, you can help your child<br />
overcome dental anxiety so he/she will actually<br />
start to look forward to visiting the<br />
dentist. It’s a proud moment when your<br />
child can say he/she is cavity free, and this<br />
will come as a result of a great doctor-patient<br />
relationship built on trust, open communication<br />
and respect. Remember, the<br />
earlier your child sees the dentist, the better,<br />
and always let your dentist explain the<br />
procedures directly to your child. Reassure<br />
your child – and yourself – that he/she is in<br />
good hands and the goal is a happy, healthy<br />
smile he/she can keep for a lifetime!<br />

Skip Breakfast,<br />
Lose Weight?<br />
By Ashley Sica<br />
Skip breakfast and lose weight you said!? Yes, you read correctly. I know…<br />
for those that are not familiar with Intermittent Fasting (IF) it may sound<br />
like crazy talk, especially because we have been so engrained to “Never skip<br />
{breakfast,” “Start your day off right” etc, etc.<br />
When I started to learn about this concept,<br />
I had a hard time believing this way of<br />
eating could be so beneficial. But after doing<br />
lots of research and trying this concept<br />
for a couple of years now, I’m here to share<br />
how this pattern of eating can make your<br />
fitness goals just a tad bit easier and who<br />
wouldn’t want that!<br />
So what type of “diet” is this, you ask?<br />
Well, it’s not a diet it’s actually a pattern.<br />
Intermittent fasting is a term for an eating<br />
pattern that cycles between periods of fasting<br />
and eating. It does not give you particular<br />
foods you should eat, but rather when you<br />
should eat. This actually allows you to enjoy<br />
more of the food you love! And don’t let the<br />
term “fasting” scare you. Fasting actually allows<br />
the body to function more efficiently<br />
and literally helps turn your body into a fat<br />
burning machine. Trust me, I’m living proof<br />
- getting back into shape after my 3rd baby.<br />
In addition, by adapting to this type of eating<br />
pattern life just seems a little simpler. I’m not<br />
worried about breakfast when I’m trying to<br />
get 3 kids and myself out of the house. A feat<br />
any busy mom could understand.<br />
What does skipping breakfast have to do<br />
with all of this? Skipping breakfast extends<br />
the amount of time that you are in the fasted<br />
state. While you are sleeping your body is in<br />
a fasted stated. That’s why breakfast is called<br />
what it is. Hence the word breakfast. Skipping<br />
breakfast extends the time your body is<br />
in a fat burning mode. Experts recommend<br />
you fast for at least 16 hours from your last<br />
meal. If you ate dinner at 7pm your next<br />
meal would be at 11am the following day. By<br />
letting your body “fast” and giving it a break<br />
from being fed constantly amazing things<br />
54 <strong>November</strong> <strong>2016</strong> | www.<strong>Atlantic</strong><strong>Ave</strong><strong>Magazine</strong>.com<br />
start to happen. In the fasted state, insulin is<br />
low and your body is prime for burning fat.<br />
Your body burns fat not food. On the contrary<br />
when your body is in the “fed” stated…<br />
full of food, your insulin becomes elevated<br />
and signals your body to store excess fat cells<br />
in the body. While insulin is present fat burning<br />
stops and your body is only focused on<br />
burning the food you just ate…not fat! Eek!<br />
If you’re still skeptical about skipping<br />
breakfast, I urge you to do some of your own<br />
research on the many benefits of IF. (I didn’t<br />
mention how IF helps fight cancer cells)<br />
And if you never liked breakfast, then rest<br />
assured you aren’t missing out on much! I<br />
should add that there are several different<br />
methods/ways to incorporate IF into your<br />
lifestyle. This is not a one size fits all type of<br />
plan and there are many different methods<br />
to suit ones needs. For information or for<br />
better clarification contact a qualified professional<br />
to learn more about Intermittent<br />
Fasting and how it can assist you in your fitness<br />
goals.<br />

Taking The Ordinary And Making It Extraordinary<br />
By diane feen<br />

may make the man but its shoes that<br />
elevate the woman’s stature and spirit.<br />
Shannon Boueri has known this since<br />
birth. Her fashion philosophy has always<br />
started with beautiful shoes and then worked<br />
its way up to the outfit. She knows that the<br />
right shoes are a sparkling testament to the<br />
persona of a woman.<br />
Shannon started her foray into selling luscious<br />
luxurious shoes by opening Footcandy<br />
Delray, a beautiful retail store with Madison<br />
<strong>Ave</strong>nue flair and Sex and the City pizzazz.<br />
The store was a combination of Shannon’s<br />
brilliance for style and Footcandy’s designer<br />
patronage.<br />
But like all great inventions they often need<br />
modification. That’s why everyone’s favorite<br />
shoe store has a new name – JOYA. It’s still<br />
Just another day at work, Shannon and Adele in<br />
new designer-Henri Lepore Dezert. “Pop of Color!”<br />
It’s all about the shoes!<br />
owned and operated by Shannon, but it has a<br />
more extensive selection of shoes and accessories<br />
that will perk your endorphins.<br />
They still have designer shoes and handbags<br />
from star players in the footwear field -<br />
Stuart Weitzman, Loeffler Randall, Tory Burch<br />
and Kate Spade – but now there are more<br />
styles and unique brands in the forefront.<br />
“I wanted more freedom and diversity of<br />
the shoes I had in the store. My slogan is now<br />
Better than Before Bringing you More of what<br />
you want. We are no longer a franchise, we’ve<br />
changed our logo and added new designer<br />
brands of footwear and accessories,” said the<br />
mother of two who has impeccable style inherited<br />
from the fashion Gods.<br />
Shannon was a pioneer when she opened<br />
Footcandy Delray in the SOFA (South of <strong>Atlantic</strong><br />
<strong>Ave</strong>) District of downtown Delray. She<br />
continues to be a pioneer by bringing in spectacular<br />
shoes that speak for themselves. “People<br />
constantly stop me and ask me where I get<br />
my shoes. I love all their shoes, the service is<br />
exceptional and the owner gives back to the<br />
community,” said Mimi Haley Meister.<br />
Shannon also sees the effect her shoes<br />
have on those who gaze in her direction. “I get<br />
stopped constantly when I wear my black and<br />
silver metallic alligator sneakers from ZCD<br />
Montreal. I call them little showstoppers.”<br />

INTRODUCING THE<br />
COOLEST PLACE<br />
ON EARTH!<br />
KREWE: Yes Please!<br />
FUN FOR KIDS OF ALL AGES!<br />
All Games On Free Play ~ No Coins Needed<br />
ZCD Montreal is one new brand that Joya displays on a table in<br />
front of this light open airy space. If the name doesn’t sound familiar<br />
it’s because they are new in the fashion hierarchy of greatness.<br />
But if you look around you’ll see them on Gigi Hadid, Margot Robbie<br />
and Devon Windsor. The sneakers come in faux alligator and<br />
fine leathers with Velcro front flaps, slip-on styles, fur trimming<br />
and a sense of limitless style. Made in Italy they come in colors<br />
ranging from cheeky pastels to darker hues.<br />
Another reason to rush to Joya, other than the joyful elation of<br />
creation, is to see their Robert Zur loafers that are a combination<br />
driving shoe and sublime artwork for the foot. Made in soft fine<br />
leather they come in color saturated slip-on styles with tassels and<br />
whip stitching, Gucci-inspired gold buckles and woven leathers.<br />
Joya also ramped up their selection of Stuart Weitzman and Kate<br />
Spade shoes and handbags. Their suede over the knee boots are<br />
svelte and celebratory as are the short booties. Joya also has trunk<br />
shows where you can order your size and favorite style, from designers<br />
like Stuart Weitzman.<br />
There are also elegant sexy high heels in suede, leather and patent<br />
with bows, ankle straps, rhinestones, and platforms to elongate<br />
your torso and your self confidence. But just as we like to tower<br />
over the mundane, it’s always nice to slip into a comfy flip flop from<br />
Kate Spade with bow front.<br />
For the elegant side of life Joya has a selection of silver and gold<br />
faux skin leather stilettos from Loeffler Randall, stunning strappy<br />
heels and platforms from Henri Lepore Dezert and all the current<br />
styles you see in the South of France or Madison <strong>Ave</strong>nue.<br />
But it’s not just about the shoes. “We’re giving the same top<br />
notch personalized service and one on one experience that we’re<br />
known for. You can rely on us for one-of-a-kind shoes that no one<br />
else has in any other store.”<br />
While in New Orleans Shannon found high fashion sunglasses<br />
from Krewe. The frames – that are works of art - are handcrafted<br />
in metals and acetates in sophisticated colors and textural hues in<br />
all styles. Celebrities like Hadid and her friends are clamoring for<br />
them as well.<br />
And it doesn’t stop there. Joya carries cross-body bags, a broader<br />
range of Kate Spade handbags, accessories and Home items.<br />
But there’s one thing static at this beautiful store with the floor<br />
to ceiling windows and carefully orchestrated elegance – and it is<br />
freedom of form. “I now get to bring in designer shoes and accessories<br />
that my customers want. We have things that are affordable,<br />
casual, classic, trendy, whimsical and sexy.”<br />
For those of us with a craving for wonderful and divine footwear<br />
and accessories we say “Bring it on Boueri.”<br />

THE GRIFE<br />
LAW FIRM<br />
Getting Results Is<br />
His Business<br />
Boca Raton Personal Injury Attorney Michael K. Grife<br />
By diane feen<br />
photos courtesy of Ben J. Hicks<br />
{Mike Grife wants to change the face of<br />
Personal Injury law and usher in a new<br />
era to this competitive profession.<br />
“I want to go back to a time when lawyers<br />
were trustworthy and didn’t make themselves<br />
look like consumer products advertised<br />
on billboards and TV ads,” said Grife,<br />
whose law practice is in Boca Raton.<br />
Grife has a bigger billboard for his successful<br />
career in Personal Injury law – and<br />
it’s one that stands tall in conversation – not<br />
inches or feet.<br />
“My clients become my billboards. Their<br />
testimonials and referrals have helped<br />
to make my practice grow exponentially.<br />
Since 2014 my business has more than<br />
doubled in size.”<br />
Not surprising when you listen to Grife’s<br />
clients. They extol the virtue of his rapid<br />
follow-through and ability to see the legal<br />
diamond that may be hidden in the rough.<br />
“We are especially appreciative of your<br />
professionalism and your commitment to<br />
representing out best interests at a very<br />
stressful time of our lives. Your care and compassion<br />
is very evident. It has amazed us, in<br />
a relatively short time, that you have guided<br />
us from a point of great vulnerability to full<br />
and final resolution with maximum benefits,”<br />
said Carol and Harold LeMay of Boynton.<br />
It’s not just the LeMay’s who can’t say<br />
enough about Grife and his talent in helping<br />
clients get rewarded handsomely for<br />
their suffering and loss. On the Avvo website<br />
the sentiment is the same: “Best Lawyer<br />
in Town,” “Top Notch Personal Injury Attorney,”<br />
and “First Class Legal Representation.”<br />
This type of reputation is exactly what<br />
Grife wanted when he started practicing<br />
law. “I believe in providing clients with such<br />
a high quality of service that they tell their<br />
friends and family about my firm. If you do a<br />
good job they will come.”<br />
He’s right – they have. Alan of Boca Raton<br />
is one example. “I went through two terrible<br />
attorneys before I found Mike. The other attorneys<br />
told me my case was worth about<br />
$7,000 and Mike got me a lot more. He knew<br />
the law and how to handle my case – Mike’s<br />
a Shark, not a girl Scout. I have referred clients<br />
to him and they have referred people to<br />
him as well.”<br />
Grife considers his practice to be a family<br />
practice, not a corporate one. He also comes<br />
up with an individualized custom tailored<br />
plan of action for each case to maximize the<br />
58 <strong>November</strong> <strong>2016</strong> | www.<strong>Atlantic</strong><strong>Ave</strong><strong>Magazine</strong>.com
final outcome. He’s not in law for the buzz,<br />
but for the betterment of the profession and<br />
his clients. “Law is an honorable profession<br />
and something that should be handled in a<br />
classy way. I am client-centric and want my<br />
clients to have a luxurious setting and compassionate<br />
care.”<br />
Dean Palmer can attest to the truth of that<br />
statement. A client of Grife’s he has seen the<br />
agony and elation of a lawsuit and injury<br />
that was sustained from an accident. “Mike<br />
is the most sincere caring attorney I have<br />
ever met. I went through five attorneys before<br />
I found him. Some attorneys never got<br />
back to me and others didn’t give me personal<br />
attention. Mike made it happen and I<br />
am ecstatic with the results. He went above<br />
and beyond what I expected and worked so<br />
hard for me.”<br />
Getting results is one of the pinnacles of<br />
the law practice that Grife has built. He demands<br />
a lot of himself and of his staff – but he<br />
gives a lot to those around him. “I get on the<br />
phone with clients day or night seven days a<br />
week. I believe in the Golden Rule – treat others<br />
as you want to be treated. I want to meet<br />
and exceed client’s expectations.”<br />
Grife, who grew up in Brooklyn, attributes<br />
that melting pot of domesticity to be<br />
the foundation for learning how to relate<br />
to people of all ages and ethnicities. But he<br />
doesn’t take anything for granted. It’s all<br />
hard work, kindness and compassion that<br />
seals the deal on both ends – for clients<br />
and the profession of law. “I have been passionate<br />
about law since the first day of law<br />
The plush Boca Raton conference room at The Grife Law Firm<br />
school. The logical thinking and processing<br />
the cases came natural to me. It made me<br />
realize that this is what I was destined to do<br />
with my life.”<br />
Gene couldn’t agree more. “If you are<br />
seeking a qualified Top Notch Law Firm you<br />
should procure the services of Michael Grife.<br />
My family and I are pleased beyond measure<br />
at the successful handling of the slip and fall<br />
case that caused devastating injuries. They<br />
were thorough in details, courteous, efficient<br />
and aggressive…VERY IMPRESSIVE!<br />
WE GIVE THEM A THUMBS UP!”<br />
So does legal rating service Martindale-<br />
Hubbell. They rated him AV-Preeminent,<br />
meaning Mr. Grife is in the highest category<br />
for legal ethics and ability. Since 2013 he has<br />
also been named a “Rising Star” by Florida<br />
Super Lawyers and he has a perfect score<br />
from Avvo for overwhelmingly positive client<br />
feedback. Grife has been recognized as one of<br />
the “Best Attorneys of America” by Rue Ratings<br />
and The National Trial Lawyers named<br />
Grife in its prominent “Top 40 Under 40.”<br />
Mr. Grife has worked exclusively for people<br />
who need to take action against insurance<br />
companies, medical personnel and<br />
big corporations whose carelessness has<br />
caused serious injury or death.<br />
He takes pride in representing his clients<br />
with zeal and aggressiveness, yet with high<br />
ethical standards. “I am a results-oriented<br />
attorney who works strategically to maximize<br />
my clients’ financial recovery. It is my<br />
desire to make sure my clients have the best<br />
experience possible – that is what drives<br />
me. I fight for your rights.”<br />

Changing Lives<br />
as well as Faces<br />
{By Martin Lenkowsky<br />
Changing Faces Makeup owner Rhonda Vacanti, says her<br />
permanent makeup establishment in Delray Beach does<br />
even more than change faces for many of her clients.<br />
Boynton Beach resident – and two time<br />
breast cancer survivor – Barbara Bregoli<br />
agrees. “It’s been great. Rhonda helped me<br />
so much, she said. “I can go outside and not<br />
look as sick as I feel. She gave me a face I can’t<br />
possibly do for myself. With the medications<br />
I take I feel very pale. I don’t wear makeup.”<br />
Vacanti adds: “I’ve worked with people with<br />
cancer and scars from some type of accident.<br />
Permanent makeup brings back their confidence.<br />
I work on people with macular degeneration,<br />
glaucoma, and many other eye diseases.”<br />
Changing Faces Makeup specializes in a<br />
wide variety of services. Vacanti, an award<br />
winning artist, who has received extensive,<br />
specialized training in all permanent makeup<br />
procedures, said eyebrows, eyeliners and lip<br />
liner and tinting are her most popular procedures.<br />
Permanent makeup is a cosmetic technique<br />
employing tattoos as a means of producing<br />
designs that resemble makeup.<br />
Vacanti said her many clients range in age<br />
from 25 to 90. “They’re all over the page,” she<br />
said. “Different beauty magazines have made<br />
eyebrows very trendy and hot.”<br />
She said another big trend is a technique<br />
called microblading. “A lot of people are coming<br />
in asking for it,” she said, but she cautions<br />
some people are falsely advertising this particular<br />
eyebrow procedure as semi-permanent.<br />
“Any way you do eyebrows is all the<br />
same thing. The public is being misled. It still<br />
requires a license by the Palm Beach County<br />
Health Department. I’d like to emphasize any<br />
type of tattooing must be done in a licensed<br />
establishment. People need to realize there’s<br />
permanent eyeliner immediately after<br />
Dermaplaning the “HOTTEST” Anti Aging treatment<br />

needles involved needing special handling.”<br />
Permanent makeup can last from one to<br />
five years. “It just fades,” she said. “It needs a<br />
color boost. It’s not really gone.”<br />
Vacanti said an active lifestyle does not affect<br />
permanent makeup. “All my clients are<br />
athletic. They play tennis and other sports,”<br />
she said. “It doesn’t wear out.”<br />
Many in the medical community send their<br />
patients to Vacanti. “The ideal client is someone<br />
allergic to conventional makeup,” she said,<br />
adding skin doctors and opthalmologists regularly<br />
refer them to her.<br />
Vacanti emphasizes the difference between<br />
her business and a traditional tattoo parlor.<br />
“The atmosphere that I offer is a medical spa<br />
environment with relaxing music and relaxing<br />
aromatherapy,” she said. “ I use the highest<br />
quality numbing and the highest quality<br />
equipment to minimize discomfort. We give<br />
a totally different experience. Eyeliners, eyebrows<br />
and lips are pre-numbed.”<br />
Bregoli concurs: “She tells me step-by-step<br />
what she’s going do,” she said, adding, “Rhonda<br />
is very conservative (in her approach) to<br />
the point you want her to do more.”<br />
Permanent makeup is applied in a variety<br />
of different colors and tones. “It all depends on<br />
You’re never too old to look fabulous<br />
skin tone. All of my colors are custom blended<br />
for each client,” Vacanti said. “Eyeliner is almost<br />
always black.”<br />
Permanent makeup doesn’t last quite as<br />
long as a traditional tattoo, Vacanti said. “It’s<br />
not exactly the same products as a traditional<br />
technique,” she said. “I use the latest technology<br />
and the highest quality of everything.”<br />
In order to apply permanent makeup, one<br />
must be licensed by the state.<br />
Does she ever have any male clientele?<br />
“Yes, I have one coming in tomorrow for eyebrows,”<br />
she said.<br />
Another hot trend in skincare is called<br />
dermaplaning. “It’s an anti-aging skin treatment,”<br />
Vacanti said. “It’s one of the hottest<br />
trends and it’s done with a scalpel. It removes<br />
dead skin from the surface. It gives you a nice<br />
healthy glow.”<br />
Vacanti, a former optician, started Changing<br />
Faces Makeup in 1997. “I am the owner and<br />
artist,” she said. She is board certified with the<br />
American Academy of Micropigmentation, and<br />
the founder of an organization called “Techs<br />
Helping Techs,” a professional group that gives<br />
scholarships to artists from all around the<br />
world. “I got my skin care license and permanent<br />
makeup certification in 1997,” she said. “I<br />
opened a day spa in 2000, and sold it in 2004. I<br />
wanted to be more boutique and private.”<br />
“I pride myself on the cleanliness of my<br />
office,” she said, “and the highest quality<br />
pigments, needles and numbing products.<br />
I am certified five times in microneedling,<br />
four times in dermaplaning, and I have performed<br />
over 18,000 procedures in permanent<br />
makeup.”<br />
“My goal is to make you look your best ever,<br />
in fact, FABULOUS,” she said.<br />

Mercedes-BENZ<br />
OF DELRAY BEACH<br />
In A Class Of Its Own<br />
By Diane Feen<br />
photos by melissa korman<br />
{<br />
If you’re looking for a car that defines<br />
style and understated elegance<br />
Mercedes-Benz is on top of the list.<br />
General Manager Cliff Brush<br />
But it’s not just reputation or designer<br />
snobbery that has elevated this car to the forefront<br />
of discerning car ownership, it’s something<br />
else. It’s the technology and design innovation<br />
that make many a Mercedes –Benz fan.<br />
You feel it the moment you get into the car.<br />
Like going into a supersonic jet or a mahogany<br />
insulated five-star restaurant, driving in a Mercedes-Benz<br />
is tantamount to being on top of the<br />
world (even if you’re eye level with gravity).<br />
Mercedes-Benz of Delray has always staked<br />
out its territory on Linton Blvd just East of I95.<br />
And it’s always been transparent from a visual<br />
perspective, but there are a few things that<br />
have changed in recent months.<br />
For starters they have a new General Manager<br />
– Cliff Brush. Brush is a veteran car guy<br />
with over 30 years in the business, with 13<br />
of them at AutoNation’s Lexus of Palm Beach.<br />
Though he moved to Delray Beach before its<br />
stratospheric rise to popularity (in 2004) he<br />
is happy to come full circle. “It’s great to be<br />
home and even better to feel so welcome here.<br />
I encourage everyone to come in, look around<br />
and meet the people,” said the Chicago native.<br />
The people Brush is talking about are their<br />
64 <strong>November</strong> <strong>2016</strong> | www.<strong>Atlantic</strong><strong>Ave</strong><strong>Magazine</strong>.com
The luxurious S550 Cabriolet Convertible<br />
30 sales people and support staff. With the<br />
clear window view you can feel the sun on your<br />
shoulders and the swift possibilities in your life<br />
driving a new (or used) Mercedes-Benz.<br />
I might not have been convinced had I not<br />
spent some time in their new S550 Cabriolet<br />
Convertible or the C300 Cabriolet Convertible.<br />
Both cars bring new meaning to the word<br />
luxury and both glide along the highway as if<br />
King Kong had lifted them up from the asphalt.<br />
That’s part of the exciting news at Mercedes-Benz<br />
of Delray. They now sell two new<br />
convertibles, which makes the total of Mercedes-Benz<br />
convertibles four. The even better<br />
news is that you have your choice of a retractable<br />
hardtop that goes down with the click<br />
of the remote control that renders it topless.<br />
With no seams it acrobatically back-flips into<br />
the rear of your trunk and you magically have<br />
a convertible without complication.<br />
The SLC’s have AIRSCARF®, which is a<br />
neck-level heating system that warms your<br />
neck and shoulders. The three heat settings<br />
and speed-dependent airflow make cooler<br />
days a little bit cozier.<br />
According to Mercedes-Benz the SLC engine<br />
will put wind in your sails with either<br />
one turbo or two that combine fire-breathing<br />
power with free-breathing efficiency. “The<br />
241-hp 2.0L turbo-4 in the SLC300 and AMGinfused<br />
362-hp biturbo V6 in the SLC43 turn<br />
motion into emotion.”<br />
With the SLC’s diamond-textured new grille<br />
and its twin torch LED tail-lamps, it wraps<br />
its long hood-short deck balance so it slices<br />
through the wind and corners revealing its<br />
pure sports-car soul (if you believe your car<br />
has a soul).<br />
Another outstanding convertible with human<br />
capability and top notch luxury is the S<br />
CLASS CABRIOLET. Its advanced climate control<br />
adapts automatically so you don’t have<br />
to change settings. The AIRCAP system calms<br />
turbulence at highway speed and the AIRS-<br />
CARF® wraps your neck and shoulders in<br />
warm air when needed.<br />
Called a modern classic, the S Class Cabriolet<br />
feels like your gliding along the road, not<br />
driving on it. Part of the reason is its Biturbo<br />
power, active exhaust, high-pressure Direct<br />
Injection and multi-spark ignition. It also has<br />
safety features that protect the driver from<br />
various scenarios on the road.<br />
The “Attention Assist” monitors steering<br />
behavior and detect signs of drowsiness. The<br />
“Blind Spot Assist” has radar sensors that<br />
make hazards in traffic visible and the “Lane<br />
Keeping Assist” alerts you if you are drifting<br />
out of your lane.<br />
Another exciting new feature in the Mercedes-Benz<br />
is the Apple CarPlay. Called the<br />
ultimate co-pilot, CarPlay is a safe way to use<br />
your iPhone while in the car. It inputs your<br />
data in a built-in display so you can get directions,<br />
make calls, send and receive messages,<br />
and listen to music while on the road. CarPlay<br />
The Sporty Chic C300<br />
has Siri voice control and works on your car’s<br />
knobs, buttons, touchpad or touch-screen.<br />
If you are in the market for a luxurious Mercedes-Benz<br />
convertible check out the S550<br />
Cabriolet Convertible with crème color perforated<br />
Napa leather seats (that can be heated)<br />
with neck fan and state-of-the-art sophistication.<br />
Just sitting in this car will make one forget<br />
their earthly woes and feel lifted above gravity.<br />
According to sales associate Tony Catalfo the<br />
car is on par with the illustrious Bentley.<br />
Mercedes-Benz of Delray is also involved in<br />
AutoNation’s’ Breast Cancer Research Foundation<br />
sponsorship. A reminder of their Drive<br />
Pink Foundation can be seen on the cars pink<br />
trimmed license plates.<br />
Though some things have changed – much<br />
stays the same at Mercedes-Benz Delray. “We<br />
are on the cutting edge of innovation and technology.<br />
Every year we add content in our cars<br />
especially with the Apple CarPlay, which integrates<br />
all the features of your iPhone into your<br />
car,” said Brush.<br />
What has not changed is that Lisa Guarini<br />
is still E-Commerce/Business Development<br />
Manager of Mercedes Benz of Delray. “I am<br />
excited to be part of this new management<br />
taking Mercedes-Benz of Delray to the next<br />
level of Excellence! It is my honor to be Cliff’s<br />
Assistant and Internet Sales Director. We are<br />
driven to Delight Our Customers – It’s The<br />
BEST or NOTHING!”<br />
In the Mercedes-Benz SLC catalogue it says:<br />
These cars are Something more than Transportation,<br />
Nothing short of Transformation.<br />
Go ahead and transform yourself – Mercedes-Benz<br />
of Delray is waiting for your visit.<br />
Now is the time – their Winter Event Sales<br />
go from <strong>November</strong> 1st to December 31st.<br />

Fathom Impact Cruise<br />
Offers a Unique Travel Adventure<br />
By Rich Pollack and Carol Csomay<br />
{<br />
It didn’t take long to realize that this cruise<br />
to the Dominican Republic was going to be<br />
unlike any cruise we had ever taken.<br />
Even then, we had little idea that this sevenday<br />
adventure would truly be a life-changing<br />
experience – one none of us would ever forget.<br />
It began in July when a small group of us<br />
from the Delray Beach Chamber of Commerce<br />
had the opportunity to bring a spouse or a guest<br />
with us on what was branded as an “impact”<br />
cruise aboard the Adonia, a 705-passenger<br />
Fathom cruise line ship that recently arrived<br />
from Europe.<br />
We’d been told we’d be taking part in “voluntourism”<br />
– essentially a cruise with a cause<br />
where we could do community service in the<br />
Dominican community of Puerto Plata while<br />
getting a little R & R. You could think of it as a<br />
non-secular mission trip working side-by-side<br />
with 500 or so people we’d never met.<br />
While most cruises are about what you get<br />
to see, the Fathom Impact Cruise is all about<br />
what you do – which is help others. We taught<br />
conversational English to people in their homes,<br />
Rich Pollack with Puerto Plata resident Federico<br />
66 <strong>November</strong> <strong>2016</strong> | www.<strong>Atlantic</strong><strong>Ave</strong><strong>Magazine</strong>.com<br />
planted trees in a forest, created transformative<br />
in-home water filters and helped to build concrete<br />
floors for families living in poor neighborhoods.<br />
We made recycled paper or chocolate<br />
bars that generate income for local residents<br />
or went to schools where we danced, sang and<br />
played basketball with area children.<br />
“We expected the Fathom cruise to be similar<br />
to others we had taken but with added impact<br />
activities,” said Sarah Crane, chair of the chamber’s<br />
Nonprofit Council who traveled with her<br />
boyfriend Eric Camacho. “But in so many ways<br />
Fathom was different.”<br />
The Adonia doesn’t have a casino nor does it<br />
have the shows, dining plans and never-ending<br />
activities you’ll find on a bigger ship. Unlike<br />
most cruises it only stops in one port, becoming<br />
a floating hotel for three days. But none of that<br />
mattered. Instead, it was the magnitude of the<br />
impact that this “impact cruise” had on all of us<br />
that was most remarkable.<br />
For the Chamber’s Member Development<br />
Director, Lynn Van Lenten, and her husband,<br />
Glenn, one of the highlights of the cruise was<br />
a morning spent helping to put down concrete<br />
floors in a small home shared by a family of four.<br />
“It wasn’t just an opportunity to look into<br />
the homes or into the neighborhood,” she said.<br />
“It was a chance to meet the families, hug the<br />
children, laugh with the babies and rejoice with<br />
other volunteers. Walking back on to the Adonia,<br />
all sweaty and dirty, was the best feeling. A<br />
family was changed forever. A dream had come<br />
true through our efforts.”<br />
For Chamber Board Member Noreen Payne,<br />
who went on the Fathom cruise a few weeks before<br />
the rest of us, the trip became a shared adventure<br />
where she and her 17-year-old daughter<br />
Alia were able to work together.<br />
“I saw my usually shy daughter blossom,”<br />
Noreen said. “She not only jumped in to help<br />
Alia Payne dances while helping<br />
to put down concrete floors<br />
but she really engaged with the local residents,<br />
going so far as to dance with them.”<br />
Impact travel is something relatively new<br />
to the cruise industry and something that may<br />
take a while to catch on. But it is, according to<br />
Jeff Dash of Dash Travel in Delray Beach, a different<br />
kind of trip for people who want to something<br />
different and rewarding on their cruise.<br />
“It gives people the chance to go on vacation<br />
and at the same time give back in many ways,”<br />
said Dash, who helped arrange the chamber<br />
trip. “You’re going with like-minded people who<br />
want to share the experience and you’re changing<br />
the way some people in the Dominican Republic<br />
exist.”<br />
While the cruise is focused on working in the<br />
community, there are also many opportunities<br />
to enjoy the tourist town and pool and zip line<br />
at Amber Cove, a port built by Fathom’s parent<br />
company, Carnival Cruise Line. Fathom offers<br />
several excursions, including visits to waterfalls<br />
and beaches, and passengers are welcome to<br />
visit attractions – such as a mountain-top state<br />
park accessible by cable car.<br />
While we each had different experiences, all<br />
of us are in agreement about one thing. Without<br />
a doubt we would do it again.<br />

Cathy Balestriere, Crane’s energetic General<br />
Manager, has witnessed firsthand the<br />
growth of the hotel in the last 15 years.<br />
As the incoming chairperson for the Delray<br />
Chamber of Commerce and a Commissioner<br />
for the Community Redevelopment<br />
Board, Cathy maintains a busy schedule but<br />
her dedication to maintaining and promoting<br />
the Beach house remains a labor of love.<br />
“It’s not your typical hotel,” said Balestriere.<br />
A soothing soak in one of the two tropical pools at Crane’s Beach House<br />
“Our staff goes above and beyond making<br />
our incoming guests feel like they’re<br />
welcomed as family as if entering their<br />
own private beach house. Every guest who<br />
comes in is walked to their room by our<br />
front desk team. We enjoy getting to know<br />
all of our visitors.”<br />
From the beginning, Balestriere has immersed<br />
herself in projects sponsored by the<br />
hotel and benefiting the community at large.<br />
“Project holiday started out as a fundraiserand<br />
as we collected donations, it<br />
became a genuine community event. We’re<br />
still sending out over 300 packages a year<br />
during the first week of December.”<br />
Balestriere has witnessed the transformation<br />
of a once sleeping downtown Delray<br />
into a thriving, hugely popular area, drawing<br />
visitors’ year round from around the world.<br />
But she has never forgotten those who<br />
make Delray their permanent habitats and<br />
places of business.<br />
“When we renovated the luxury villas,<br />
we made sure to use local construction and<br />
design teams.”<br />
Crane’s Beach House has become both<br />
a unique business and highly recognized<br />
brand, much to the marketing programs<br />
developed by Balestriere and her loyal<br />
dedicated staff.<br />
“We’re recognized internationally and<br />
have been successful reinventing ourselves.”<br />
“We still welcome so many returning<br />
guests. Some of them have been coming<br />
back for the past ten years. With technology<br />
and creative marketing, many of them<br />
can simply book on-line. If they arrive after<br />
hours as late arrivals, they are now given<br />
a special code and can check into their<br />
rooms on their own.”<br />
Owner Michael Crane and his wife echoes<br />
the sentiments of his General Manager and<br />
remains proud of the Beach House’s decade<br />
and half growth and close connections to<br />
the Delray Beach Community.<br />
“Cranes Beach House has been a wonderful<br />
project for Karen and I from the very beginning,<br />
and so much of the boutique hotel’s<br />
success is due to our incredible staff. They<br />
truly are the spirit and smiles of Crane’s because<br />
they are committed to the happiness<br />
of every visitor, and always willing to drop<br />
whatever they may be doing to respond to<br />
a guest’s request. We are very proud that<br />
the hotel is so community oriented, working<br />
closely with the City of Delray Beach to<br />
support our First responders, local charities<br />
and nonprofit organizations. With the<br />
development of our luxury villas and the<br />
upgrades of every room and suite, Crane’s<br />
can compete with the finest boutique hotels<br />
in South Florida and our fresh new look and<br />
lush outdoor space helps us attract more<br />
quests. Crane’s is a place of no worries and a<br />
lot of smiles and Karen and I look forward to<br />
celebrating many more happy birthdays as<br />
Delray’s favorite Beach House.”<br />

Delray Beach<br />
Running Company<br />
Getting Delray in Step, the ‘Old Fashioned’ Way<br />

{<br />
In an age of mega department stores, super-sized hardware store<br />
chains, and a Starbucks on every corner, a touch of yesteryear still<br />
exists in one of Delray Beach’s landmark buildings.<br />
Large in-store mural featuring American Olympic athletes<br />
“It’s more than just shoes. We take the athlete<br />
at any level, put them through a series of<br />
comprehensive tests, and direct them to the<br />
correct footwear.”<br />
The Delray Beach Running Company not only<br />
sells shoes – and other athletic wear – but is also<br />
deeply involved with the local running community.<br />
“We have three group runs every week,”<br />
Burke said, adding it brings in about 100 runners.<br />
“You can either run or walk. We just don’t<br />
send people out to run. We run with them.”<br />
Burke, who completed the Boston Marathon<br />
in April, writes and designs plans for those<br />
ultimately interested in running marathons.<br />
She has even taken people with little – or even<br />
no – running experience to the finish line at<br />
marathons. “We have taken people from zero<br />
to marathons, and even ultra marathons,” she<br />
said. “Zero means those on the couch not doing<br />
The Delray Beach Running Company, located<br />
at 20 W. <strong>Atlantic</strong> <strong>Ave</strong>., on the southwest<br />
corner of Swinton <strong>Ave</strong>nue, in a multicolored,<br />
art deco edifice, prides itself on<br />
being the way things used to be. “We are<br />
not a franchise,” beams owner and founder<br />
Annie Burke. “We are a good, old-fashioned<br />
mom and pop store.”<br />
Burke, a former Palm Beach County law<br />
enforcement officer, and certified running<br />
coach, opened Delray Beach Running Company<br />
in August 2014. She said her store’s<br />
approach to selling shoes to its loyal customers<br />
keeps it a step ahead of other stores.<br />
“What sets us apart is our very ‘state of<br />
the art’ computer-driven gait analysis and<br />
world-class customer service.”<br />

Delray Beach<br />
Running Company’s<br />
Trademarked logo<br />
is internationally<br />
recognized<br />
anything at all. My oldest athlete was 68, and trained from zero to a<br />
marathon. It took about four months.”<br />
Delray Beach Running Company has a staff of 14, Burke said, including<br />
two certified running coaches. Its modern equipment not<br />
only analyzes gait, but also gives customers an accurate measurement<br />
of their shoe size. She said anyone looking to buy running or<br />
walking shoes should only go to a computer-based store to have<br />
their form tested. “Function over fashion when buying shoes,” she<br />
said. “Nothing, nothing, nothing, replaces a proper fitting. Without<br />
a proper fitting, it’s a Russian roulette of potential injuries.”<br />
She recommends people not select running shoes based on price,<br />
color or brand name. “There are well known brands, but they’re not<br />
necessarily best for your body type,” Burke said.<br />
Burke said she carries shoes in the lower price range.<br />
“I am only one of two stores in the state of Florida using stateof-the-art<br />
analysis,” she said. “People drive here for hours to get<br />
a proper fitting, because they’ve been injured from other shoes.<br />
Many of my part-timer residents will wait for season to come and<br />
buy shoes here. Some call and we’ll ship them another pair.”<br />
Her customers benefit from wearing a proper fit and type of<br />
shoe. “I have many customers who, for the first time in their lives,<br />
tell me they’re pain and injury free,” Burke said. “I can’t tell you how<br />
much that means to me. I work a lot. I’m tired, but hearing this reinforces<br />
the importance of my work here. We’re open seven days<br />
and I’m here all day.”<br />
Burke is proud of the knowledge she imparts upon athletes, especially<br />
those starting out.<br />
In addition to shoes, the Delray Beach Running Company specializes<br />
in proper running apparel and nutrition. “What brings people<br />
in is our brand and our lifestyle,” she said. “I had a gentleman from<br />
Germany wearing our shirt who posted on Facebook. Our shirts are<br />
becoming trendy. Our brand has reached out. I also have customers<br />
from Israel, England, Ireland, and from all over the United States.”<br />
And to exemplify how much Burke lives the Delray Beach Running<br />
Company lifestyle, a plastic Christmas tree bedecked with tiny<br />
colorful running shoes stands in her store.<br />
“If the community keeps supporting us, we will be around,” she<br />
said. “I know my customers by their first names. Our customers are<br />
actually family here. I know their kids, and their families, their failures<br />
and successes.”<br />
And always with an eye aimed at the future, Burke is planning<br />
Delray Beach’s first half-marathon for 2017. “It’s a Herculean effort,”<br />
she said. “We’re getting the word out. The city’s been great.<br />
We love Delray Beach, its fine leadership, the first responders who<br />
do so much each day, and the spirit of community.”<br />

JOE ARDAGNA AND<br />
WHITNEY SMITH<br />
The Dynamic Duo Who Make Beauty A Verb<br />
BY diane feen photos by melissa korman Makeup by Jackie Parr<br />
{<br />
They say it’s lonely at the top. But not<br />
for Whitney Smith and Joe Ardagna.<br />
Both are star hair stylists and colorists<br />
who are on top of their game. Their salon<br />
(within a salon) is a hub of activity and<br />
transformation. So much so that they recently<br />
opened up the wall that separated<br />
the two spaces they inhabit at In the Grove<br />
Hair Studio.<br />
When they moved to Pineapple Grove to<br />
branch out on their own three years ago it<br />
was an independent gesture of expansive<br />
beautification. They may have had some<br />
clients at the time but nothing compared to<br />
their fan base now.<br />
Their quaint intimate space is always<br />
brewing with women of all ages. Some<br />
come for color, others for cut and styling<br />
and still others wager a war on the heftiness<br />
of their tresses. “We use Great Length<br />
Hair Extensions and put them in strand by<br />
strand,” said Joe, the ever patient fatherfigure<br />
and friend to all. “We take continuous<br />
education on the process of putting on<br />
hair extensions. You have to understand<br />
the diameter of the client’s hair and not<br />
add too much or it gets heavy and breaks.”<br />
If you watch Joe putting in hair extensions<br />
you would think he was adding highlights<br />
to the Sistine Chapel. With methodical<br />
intensity and concentration he adds<br />
small strands of hair to the clients existing<br />
hairline. Clients like Randee Wechsler<br />
have been coming to Joe for cut, color and<br />
hair extensions for years. She sits patiently<br />
while Joe works his magic to lengthen and<br />
thicken her tresses that are colored in<br />
what is called “Lived in.” In layman’s terms<br />
that means casual. “You can’t tell where<br />
the color stops and starts. You have to be<br />
an artist, it’s all about painting,” says Joe,<br />
who has been Wechsler’s beauty guru for<br />
eight years.<br />
Joe’s alter ego – and beautiful blond<br />
partner - is Whitney. Both are bookends<br />
in taming the wilder instincts of hair care<br />
and are dedicated to their clients’ beauty<br />
and well-being. “We want to make each<br />
and every person feel important and<br />
cared for,” said Whitney, who always has<br />
72 <strong>November</strong> <strong>2016</strong> | www.<strong>Atlantic</strong><strong>Ave</strong><strong>Magazine</strong>.com
a fan base waiting to sit in her chair. “If<br />
you are good to people they’re good to<br />
you. God gave me a talent to do hair, but<br />
it’s also given me an opportunity to help<br />
people feel good about themselves.”<br />
Mary is one of those people. The local<br />
businesswoman comes to both Joe and<br />
Whitney to color her hair and to get hair<br />
extensions. “Joe and Whitney are wonderful<br />
people. My hair is fine and my skin is<br />
ultra sensitive and they do everything to<br />
make me look good.”<br />
It’s easy to see why everyone loves Whitney<br />
and Joe. Both recently taught students<br />
at the Boca Beauty Academy about color<br />
and customer satisfaction. They do this<br />
as an act of kindness, not for accolades or<br />
reward. “We teach the students about conducting<br />
an in-depth consultation with clients<br />
so they know how to make clients happy<br />
and get the best results,” said Whitney.<br />
Joe and Whitney are devoted to their<br />
profession and recently attended the “Behind<br />
The Chair” color - style trade symposium<br />
that features top artists and trends in<br />
hair. “The trend for color is about brights<br />
– blue, red, green and pink – some mixed<br />
as highlights and others stand alone color,”<br />
said Joe, who stresses that this crayolainspired<br />
trend is acceptable for businesswomen<br />
not just hipsters.<br />
And he ought to know. Joe is a Board<br />
Certified Hair Colorist, ace stylist and motivational<br />
speaker who has been cutting,<br />
extending and coloring hair for over 38<br />
years. When he met Whitney he knew he<br />
had met his match in both technical and<br />
spiritual terms.<br />
Both know that to make someone look<br />
beautiful it has to come from the inside out.<br />
And, they understand that being beautiful<br />
is feeling beautiful. “We get to know our clients<br />
and satisfy them in the best way possible.<br />
But we could never accomplish what<br />
we do without being a team,” said Whitney.<br />
Heather Karzmer is a loyal fan of that<br />
team. She’s been coming to Whitney for<br />
cut and color for six years and adores<br />
Whitney for her talent and goodness of<br />
heart. “Whitney is successful because she’s<br />
passionate about hair and makes people<br />
feel happy,” said the strawberry blond who<br />
came with her son Nate to have Whitney<br />
buzz cut his hair.<br />
Mary feels the same way. “Joe helped<br />
me get my Mojo back. I am so grateful to<br />
both of them for making me feel and look<br />
so good.”<br />
There’s a reason why their chairs are<br />
always full and the vibe is always upbeat.<br />
It’s the joyfulness of two people doing what<br />
they’re passionate about and spreading<br />
that perfection to others. It picks you up<br />
and perks you up with the highest standard<br />
of beauty around.<br />

Allyson Sullivan<br />
Gives Insight Into Delray Beach Real Estate Trends<br />
By nicol jenkinS<br />

{For more than a decade, Lang Realty’s Allyson Sullivan has successfully<br />
assisted clients with pursuing their dreams of buying their perfect home<br />
or selling in the City of Delray Beach and throughout Palm Beach County.<br />
As a Realtor, Allyson has seen the progression<br />
of the Delray Beach real estate market<br />
over the years and continues to grow her<br />
business through her world-class real estate<br />
representation.<br />
The local agent has seen many trends in<br />
the real estate market this year to include an<br />
increase in investment property ownership.<br />
Several of her clients (prior buyers of townhomes<br />
and condominiums) are “upsizing”<br />
- buying larger homes - and retaining their<br />
original residences as rental and investment<br />
properties.<br />
“A lot of people in South Florida own or<br />
have a desire to own an investment property,”<br />
said Sullivan. “Many are in the market<br />
to buy a property to flip or rent out. While<br />
in years past, owners would sell their townhome<br />
or condo, we are seeing more hold<br />
onto these properties.”<br />
“This is great for the economy, especially<br />
in Delray Beach, where the rental market is<br />
More and more homeowners are creating high end out door spaces<br />
Free standing bath tubs are very popular in East Delray<br />
always strong due to the high demand and<br />
influx of new residents,” added Sullivan.<br />
In addition to an increase in investment<br />
homes, Delray Beach has seen many trends<br />
in terms of home décor and upgrades to include<br />
tiki huts, fire features for pools, new<br />
summer kitchens, freestanding tubs, sharkfin<br />
grey stained cabinets, energy efficient<br />
features, marble pavers and more.<br />
“Luxurious outdoor living space is very<br />
much in vogue right now in Delray Beach,”<br />
said Sullivan. “We are seeing everything<br />
from newly added and updated summer<br />
kitchens to poolside tiki huts. And, while<br />
Delray Beach has long been known for<br />

WHO’S GOT MOM COVERED<br />
IN FLORIDA?<br />
It’s 9:00 pm and she’s in route to the hospital...<br />
Allyson loves the “shark fin” grey cabinetry trend<br />
homes evoking a historic cottage feel, we are now seeing more<br />
modern trends with new builds and home renovations.”<br />
Just as the city is evolving, Allyson is also expanding her real<br />
estate empire. Well known throughout Palm Beach County<br />
for world class real estate representation, Allyson has earned<br />
the respect of thousands of buyers and sellers alike including<br />
Forbes-Listers, CEOs and professional athletes. Whether you<br />
are buying or selling your home, when working with Allyson<br />
you can be sure you’re engaging in the services of one of Palm<br />
Beach’s finest Realtors. Allyson’s local knowledge and wealth of<br />
contacts makes her a perfect fit for assisting her clients with all<br />
their real estate needs. New to her team and to help better assist<br />
her clients is long time Delray Realtor, Kristin Finn.<br />
“The addition of an assistant, as well as another like-minded<br />
licensed Realtor to my team will be a great benefit,” said Sullivan.<br />
“Fortunately, I have enhanced my team with others who<br />
share the same ethics and commitment to client service. I am<br />
looking forward to having my most successful year ever in 2017<br />
with a stellar business plan and enhanced marketing.”<br />
Allyson attributes her business success to a positive attitude,<br />
family, dedication, and making time to incorporate exercise into<br />
her everyday life. An avid runner with the Delray Beach Running<br />
Company, she has participated in many marathons including<br />
the Boston Marathon, is active in weight lifting and boot<br />
camp classes, and gets regular massages.<br />
“Self-care and daily exercise is very important,” said Sullivan.<br />
“I try to make time each day to exercise. Like with any career<br />
and industry, there are many stress factors. Exercise helps me<br />
maintain my focus, de-stress and deflect any curveballs that<br />
may come my way as a top producing realtor,” said Sullivan.<br />
Allyson is grateful to her clients and is looking forward to another<br />
successful year in Real Estate.<br />
“I am very fortunate to have grown such a successful business<br />
at a young age,” said Sullivan. “There are days I pinch myself<br />
realizing this is not a dream.”<br />

More than just your typical cigar bar<br />
{Although Smoke Inn Delray Beach has been<br />

the lounge offers much more than just cigars.<br />
Always a fun place<br />
By nicol jenkinS photos by melissa korman Similar to Cheers, Smoke Inn Delray<br />
Beach is your neighborhood bar where every<br />
customer feels right at home.<br />
“The setting is very cozy and everyone<br />
talks to each other. Smoke Inn is like everybody’s<br />
living room because of the extremely<br />
friendly atmosphere. This is just a<br />
great little hideaway,” said owner Vincent<br />
Prestigiacomo.<br />
The owner treats his customers like family<br />
and the cigar bar has that same welcoming<br />
environment. Regulars can sit back and<br />
relax in one of the leather chairs, or at the<br />
outside patio, while enjoying one of over<br />
600 of the finest cigars, including OpusX,<br />
Davidoff, and Particulare by Sindicato,<br />
from their walk-in humidor. Their diverse<br />
clientele mingles at the bar stocked with<br />
liquor, beer, wine and cappuccinos.<br />
If you smoke, Smoke Inn is one of the<br />
only places where you can smoke cigarettes,<br />
cigars and pipes indoors while<br />
drinking a cocktail.<br />
But Smoke Inn is not just for smokers.<br />
Besides the ultimate cigar experience,<br />

Smoke Inn is also a great location to watch<br />
football or any sports game on one of their<br />
flat screen TVs. And every night offers a<br />
different event. Trivia nights are every<br />
Wednesday. Many of their customers also<br />
enjoy playing poker on Thursday nights.<br />
Live music is on every Friday and Saturday<br />
night. They cater for football every Sunday<br />

will also have an Espinosa Cigar Christmas<br />
party in December.<br />
“We try to make each customer feel special.<br />
Many of our regulars have their special<br />
events and birthday parties here. We are<br />
good friends with many of the regulars; we<br />
go fishing and out to dinner together. Everyone<br />
intermingles together,” said General<br />
Manager Manuel Badillo.<br />
Vincent decided to open this style of<br />
cigar bar in 2013 and model the management<br />
style after the bars his grandfather<br />
owned in New York.<br />
“What makes Smoke Inn unique is the<br />
atmosphere. My Northerners come down<br />
once a year, and we all hug each other. We<br />
are very family oriented. As a cigar smoker,<br />
I always wanted to have my own little cigar<br />
bar. Also my grandfather was a big restaurant<br />
and bar owner in New York. I wanted<br />
to take that concept and use it here. I go<br />
visit the tables every Friday and Saturday<br />
and get to know the customers and see<br />
how they are doing,” said Vincent.<br />
Smoke Inn Delray Beach is truly for anyone<br />
looking to have a good time and a fun<br />
night out with friends.<br />
“It’s for everybody! You don’t have to impress<br />
anyone when you walk through the<br />

new friends. Plus, it’s not only for cigar<br />
smokers, but open to anyone who wants<br />

special feature ║ Delray Beach Chamber of Commerce<br />
The Grass Isn’t Always Greener<br />
Unless You’re in Delray Beach<br />
By Jena Luckman<br />
{<br />
My journey at the Delray Beach Chamber of Commerce started a little over<br />
two years ago. I had recently been diagnosed with cancer, and because of my<br />
illness I was forced to quit my job as a publicist at an agency in Boca.<br />
I couldn’t stand being sedentary, but<br />
I knew I was too sick to return to my demanding<br />
PR position. A family friend of<br />
ours suggested I check out the Chamber<br />
– they were looking for an assistant to the<br />
President. Although admittedly I didn’t<br />
know much about what a Chamber even<br />
was at the time, I thought it may be an easy<br />
transition back into the work world. I had<br />
no idea the family and connections I was<br />
about to make, leave, and then intimately<br />
return to with open arms waiting.<br />
I did a number of things my first year<br />
and a half at the Chamber – I implemented<br />
our first real social media plan, helped assist<br />
our favorite Boss Lady, Karen Granger,<br />
organized front desk volunteers, planned<br />
grand openings, sent out press to local<br />
publications and much more. But something<br />
inside of me was itching for something<br />
more, on a personal level. I had always<br />
wanted to live in Los Angeles, and<br />
when a media position was offered to me<br />
in January of this year, I quickly moved my<br />
life out west.<br />
It was on my flight to California that I immediately<br />
realized I had made the wrong<br />
decision. From the day I started my new<br />
Focus on Women “Wine, Women and Wisdom” event<br />
78 <strong>November</strong> <strong>2016</strong> | www.<strong>Atlantic</strong><strong>Ave</strong><strong>Magazine</strong>.com<br />
Young Professionals Association of Delray<br />
job I’ve never felt more miserable, helpless,<br />
and a lack of support in my life. This was<br />
no Delray Beach Chamber. The job was a<br />
failure, and I felt like one too. After a short<br />
stint at the famed Fred Segal on Melrose<br />
(where Karen & the DBMC staff actually<br />
came to visit me!), I realized something:<br />
Delray Beach is like no other place in the<br />
world, and it was time to come back home.<br />
The support I received upon returning<br />
was so overwhelmingly positive I can’t<br />
even describe it. They immediately asked<br />
me to return part-time to run the social<br />
media, marketing and Karen’s appointments<br />
while I was between more doctors’<br />
appointments than imaginable. (Yes it’s<br />
true – stress IS bad for your health).<br />
I’ve completely embraced the Delray<br />
Beach Chamber and community in general<br />
since my return and it has helped me<br />
tremendously personally and professionally.<br />
I decided to start my own social media<br />
and digital marketing company on the<br />
side, and the Chamber is where I found<br />
the tools, connections and support to do<br />
so. Through a Chamber membership, you<br />
have many resources. I met with Debbie<br />
Lanford from the Small Business Development<br />
Center who helped me get a business<br />
plan together. I’ve been attending the<br />
new Foundations classes, which help small<br />
businesses like mine find the tools to build<br />
their business. I’ve been more involved in<br />
our Young Professionals group, where I’ve<br />
actually met potential clients and business<br />
partners. None of this would have been<br />
possible without the support of the Chamber,<br />
my second family.<br />
If you had the pleasure of attending our<br />
Luminary event in October, you learned<br />
about out new IT campaign and what it<br />
means for different people. For me, it is<br />
a support system and a way to connect<br />
myself to businesses I never would have<br />
known on my own. It has literally been a<br />
learning opportunity like no other, and<br />
I could not be more thrilled to be back in<br />
such a supportive environment.<br />

a special town, trust me!

Pesaro, I Think this is the<br />
Beginning of a Beautiful friendship<br />
BY STEPHEN CHRISANTHUS<br />
{<br />
The City of Delray Beach and the Greater Delray Beach Chamber of<br />
Commerce teamed up for a visit to Sister City Pesaro, Italy. The trip aimed at<br />
strengthening relationships between the two cities and facilitating economic<br />
development initiatives was captained by Delray Beach Mayor Cary Glickstein.<br />
The city of Pesaro and its city officials<br />
welcomed the American delegation with<br />
open arms and provided them with a<br />
packed itinerary of culture, business and<br />
fun. Francesca Gallitto, Project Manager<br />
for Pesaro, was the lead hostess for the<br />
group and the person who spearheaded<br />
the entire sister city initiative with Delray<br />
Beach from the get go, recognizing the<br />
similarities and potential between the cities.<br />
The two cities may sit across the <strong>Atlantic</strong><br />
from each other but they have many<br />
close resemblances, all the way down to a<br />
walkable downtown that leads to a beautiful<br />
beach. “Pesaro is an ideal sister city offering<br />
unlimited opportunities for cultural,<br />
tourism and economic exchanges with Delray”,<br />
exclaimed Mayor Cary Glickstein.<br />
The group attended events and visited places<br />
throughout the entire Marche region, giving<br />
them an idea of what the area had to offer<br />
and a sense of the people. “Like Delray, Pesaro<br />
is a beautiful city with beautiful people who<br />
The Delray Delegation attending the zombie festival in Gradara Castle<br />
place a premium on enjoying life”, said Glickstein.<br />
They visited museums, castles, beaches<br />
and businesses; attended a hotel grand opening,<br />
a youth soccer match, and even a zombie<br />
Mayor Cary Glickstein and Mayor Matteo Ricci<br />
festival. They met with officials and directors<br />
in sports, arts, education, industry and more.<br />
Future collaborations and possibilities were<br />
discussed in the range of a sports competition,<br />
art exchanges, tourism initiatives and manufacturing<br />
opportunities, just to start. The mayor<br />
and chamber delegation went on to tour all<br />
the city services Pesaro offers to its residents<br />
and businesses while tasting and experiencing<br />
authentic Italian culture.<br />
The people of Pesaro proved once again<br />
to be amazing hosts and great partners for<br />
the future. Sharing all that time and experiences<br />
with one another built a real bond<br />
between the Delray delegation and their<br />
Italian counterparts, so much that Mayor<br />
Glickstein gave their mayor the keys to the<br />
City, a gesture reserved for those thought of<br />
as family and the very trusted. “I gave Mayor<br />
Ricci the key to our city to symbolize the<br />
people of Pesaro are always welcome in Delray”,<br />
expressed Mayor Glickstein.<br />

City People<br />
MAJOR JOSEPH M. BERNADEL<br />
A Man Of Service<br />
By Diane Feen<br />
{<br />
Photo by melissa korman<br />
When Major Joseph Bernadel walks the corridors of the Toussaint<br />
L’Ouverture High School for Arts & Social Justice he seems to glide<br />
above gravity. That’s not to say that he doesn’t land quite often<br />
during his daily duty as mentor of civility and education at the<br />
Charter School he co-founded 16 years ago in Delray.<br />
Major Bernadel’s goal in starting this landmark educational<br />
facility (for those of Haitian descent) is firmly<br />
rooted in his desire to give back and help those who<br />
need guidance.<br />
And guide he does. The retired US military officer<br />
is the father, teacher, role model and administrator to<br />
150 students who come to Delray from Haiti. Some<br />
come with limited language skills, life skills and educational<br />
challenges.<br />
But it is Major Bernadel’s life mission to help those<br />
less fortunate than himself. “My parents instilled in me<br />
two values I never forgot – the Benefit of Education and<br />
Serving the Community.”<br />
Those important pillars of good citizenship have not<br />
only been indelibly stamped on his consciousness, but<br />
have steered him directly into the fire belly of organizational<br />
leadership.<br />
After retiring from the military Major Bernadel<br />
moved to Palm Beach County and assumed the role of<br />
Executive Director of Milagro Center. His next role was<br />
to study the feasibility of Charter Schools for Boca Raton.<br />
Though the schools never materialized the Major’s<br />
arsenal for helping the underdog amped up. “When<br />
I left Milagro Center I had 500 pages of documents<br />
about charter schools, it was serendipity.”<br />
It sure was. Bernadel noticed in his military career<br />
(that took him from Fort Benning, Georgia to Hawaii,<br />
India, Mozambique and Haiti) that a lack of education<br />
was a constant in areas of great strife. “When I saw<br />
what was going on overseas I decided the first thing I<br />
would concentrate on when I retired from the military<br />
(after 22 years) is education. Education and community<br />
service make strong societies.”<br />
Bernadel’s commitment to serving has never wavered.<br />
He was a Military Attaché in the US Army, Chairman<br />
of the Delray Beach Housing Authority, National<br />
Trainer for the Anti-Defamation League, on the Board<br />
of the Palm Beach County Criminal Justice and Education<br />
Commissions, and a founding member of the Delray<br />
Beach Land Trust.<br />
But that’s only part of the story of a man whose life<br />
has always led to strengthening the moral fiber of society.<br />
“I believe in the component of social justice, professionalism<br />
and service. You should do everything you<br />
do at the highest level of integrity,” said the Vice Chairman<br />
of the CRA.<br />
And he has. Major Bernadel is the first person of Haitian<br />
descent to open a school in the US. He talked about<br />
his dream of starting a school back in 2000 to the Sun<br />
Sentinel Newspaper. He told the reporter he wanted to<br />
provide English classes, job and life skill training, and<br />
assistance to those who emigrated from Haiti.<br />
Though his dream seemed quite far reaching (and<br />
idealistic) at the time, it became a reality in 2001 when<br />
he teamed up with Dr. Diane Allerdyce. The two have<br />
created an ideal educational world that emphasizes<br />
integrity, morality and leadership. “We are the only<br />
school around that has no security guard. It is the responsibility<br />
of every one on campus to make sure that<br />
if you ‘see something you say something.’ We have not<br />
had one instance of trouble.”<br />
You can see why when you walk on the campus that<br />
encompasses five buildings. It is there that students<br />
are taught everything from academics to good citizenship<br />
and life lessons. When he sees a young girl munching<br />
on cheese curls he gently - and fatherly - says, “This<br />
is not food, its chemicals. You can eat it once in a while<br />
but not for lunch.”<br />
Major Bernadel is not a disciplinarian, he’s a humanitarian.<br />
“My relationship with the students is not punitive;<br />
it’s about them seeing me as someone to guide<br />
them in the course of life.”<br />
And that’s exactly what he does. As the lunch line<br />
slows down he sees a few students with loud music<br />
booming from their radios. With a look of slight disfavor<br />
he motions them to turn it down. “But this is like<br />
my girlfriend, it helps relieve my stress,” said one student.<br />
Bernadel shoots back a compassionate look and<br />
says, “Get another girlfriend.”<br />
Though his life trajectory didn’t have the same socio-<br />
84<br />
<strong>November</strong> <strong>2016</strong> | www.<strong>Atlantic</strong><strong>Ave</strong><strong>Magazine</strong>.com
logical groove as his students, his compassion<br />
and charity of spirit led him to be a champion<br />
for those less fortunate. He speaks five languages<br />
and spearheaded the growth of his<br />
school through eight moves, and from 52 students<br />
to 150. “Against all odds we survived.”<br />
Bernadel was also instrumental in having<br />
the month of May declared Haitian Heritage<br />
Month by the Delray Beach City Council. In<br />
2015 he received the US President’s Volunteer<br />
Service Award and in 2010 he was appointed<br />
by the President of Haiti to the Interim<br />
Haiti Reconstruction Commission after<br />
the earthquake.<br />
When asked what he likes to do in his spare<br />
time he said, “I work seven days a week. When<br />
not working I participate in the exercise of democracy.<br />
You cannot contribute to democracy<br />
when you’re watching TV and eating doughnuts.<br />
Democracy is not a spectator sport.”<br />
That’s why his future goals include creating<br />
affordable housing, developing the NW-<br />
SW section of Delray and cultural integration<br />
of Old School Square.<br />
When pressed about his leisure plans for<br />
the future he retorts, “My fantasy is to cross<br />
the <strong>Atlantic</strong> in my own sailboat.” Though he<br />
doesn’t own a sailboat at the moment, don’t<br />
be surprised if you hear him whistling at you<br />
from a dock sometime in the future.<br />
You know why? Because Major Bernadel is<br />
not a dreamer, he’s a man who takes action<br />
and makes dreams become realities.<br />

Caprese Salad<br />
Rocky’s Italian Bistro & Bar<br />
Italian Food with an International Flair<br />
By Diane Feen<br />
Photos by melissa korman<br />
{It’s been 17 years since Rocky (Robert Telesca) honed his passion for<br />
fine Italian dining and music and melded them together. It may have<br />
started out as a small bistro with 55 seats, but today Rocky’s Italian<br />
Bistro & Bar seats 150 and is adjoined to an upbeat intimate bar.<br />
Rigatoni Calabrese<br />
Rocky has added romance and intimacy to<br />
the interior space by using wood molding and<br />
ambient lighting. It’s almost feels like you’re<br />
in someone’s home or guest house – and<br />
you are – it’s Rocky’s home turf. It’s a place<br />
where you get to order what pleases your palate.<br />
You can pick a dish off the menu or order<br />
something unique that Rocky or Chef Damion<br />
have cooked up from their culinary ingenuity.<br />
Either way the homemade food is rooted in<br />
Italy with an International flair.<br />
It also beckons one to crack open a bottle<br />
of wine and relax into the embrace of<br />
Rocky’s Italian ancestry. For a nice starter<br />
try their house Cabernet – it’s full bodied<br />
and has a rich flavor. If you want wine with a<br />
bubbly champagne vibe try the Lambrusco,<br />
it’s refreshing and sweet.<br />
100 <strong>November</strong> <strong>2016</strong> | www.<strong>Atlantic</strong><strong>Ave</strong><strong>Magazine</strong>.com
When it comes to Veal dishes, Rocky’s is<br />
the perfect place to honor this Italian treasure.<br />
Our favorite is their House Special,<br />
Veal Chop Sicilian. It is butter flied, lightly<br />
breaded, baked and topped with eggplant<br />
in a marinara sauce with Pecorino Romano<br />
and mozzarella cheese (with a side of pasta).<br />
This dish is not only delicious but it’s so<br />
large you might find yourself bringing some<br />
home for lunch the next day.<br />
Another of the House Favorites is the<br />
Pear Shrimp (or salmon) uniquely prepared<br />
with pasta purses stuffed with gorgonzola,<br />
mascarpone and pear in a sweet<br />
vermouth cream sauce. It’s a delight for<br />
the senses and combines a light sweetness<br />
with a lush tasty cream sauce.<br />
If you want a more international dish<br />
with a spicier foundation try the Mandarin<br />
Snapper. This dish is pan fried on high heat<br />
with sweet Tai Chili Sauce rub, Mandarin<br />
oranges and a Creole spice blend. Another<br />
popular seafood dish is the Salmon in a<br />
Crusted Gorgonzola Sauce with blueberry<br />
reduction over spinach.<br />
There are also house specials (not on the<br />
menu) that are readily available. One that<br />
Chef Damion Foulkes recommends is the<br />
Crab Crusted Salmon over Lobster Ravioli in<br />
a truffle lemon butter sauce. Another special<br />
dish - that has garnered popularity - is the<br />
Veal Osso Buco prepared in white wine with<br />
a celery and carrot puree and cooked for five<br />
hours to enhance its inherent flavorful juices.<br />
“We like to keep it simple but add special<br />
ingredients that are not only Italian<br />
but have a continental Italian flair. We also<br />
have wonderful Center Cut Filets, Prime<br />
Cut Rib-Eyes, Pork Chops and Veal Chops,”<br />
said Foulkes who rules the kitchen with his<br />
flavor-filled fantasies.<br />
Another favorite is the Surf and Turf<br />
served with an 8oz Prime center cut Filet<br />
Mignon, Lobster tail and Shrimp in a garlic<br />
cream sauce over sautéed spinach. It’s served<br />
with lobster ravioli or roasted potatoes.<br />
Rocky’s also offers traditional fine dining<br />
Italian cuisine such as Veal Parmigiana,<br />
Veal Saltimbocca, Veal Chop Milanese and<br />
assorted Chicken, Seafood, Steak and Special<br />
Lamb dishes. If it’s real Italian Pasta<br />
you want – come and enjoy. The homemade<br />
pasta is served piping hot and loaded with<br />
flavor and spices. We loved the Baked Ziti Sicilian<br />
with tender eggplant and mozzarella<br />
cheese. There’s Penne Ala Vodka as well as<br />
Eggplant Parmigiana, Linguine Puttanesca<br />
and Cheese Tortellini or Ravioli.<br />
Chef Damion also cooks up Pork Chops<br />
that beckon one to indulge. The Center Cut<br />
Pork Chops are stuffed with prosciutto and<br />
Mozzarella cheese and broiled in the oven.<br />
They are then served over truffle mushrooms<br />
with Risotto and Broccoli Rabe.<br />
Since Rocky’s is family owned and operated<br />
they are flexible about what you can<br />
order and how it is prepared. Jalain of Vero<br />
Beach learned this first hand.<br />
“My nephew got married and we went<br />
to Rocky’s for the rehearsal dinner. There<br />
were 35 of us and we each ordered something<br />
different. Rocky brought out appetizers<br />
that were delicious to perfection and<br />
methodically timed. The bartender learned<br />
almost everyone’s name and remembered<br />
what everyone was drinking! The most impressive<br />
thing about this establishment is<br />
the pride the owner takes in his meals, his<br />
service and his staff. Please go and see for<br />
yourself! You won’t regret it!”<br />
Others agree. “We’ve been going to<br />
Rocky’s for a long time and not only do<br />
we enjoy it but we take out-of-town guests<br />
there as well. My favorite is the Lamb Shank,<br />
but all the dishes are good. Many Delray<br />
places feel over trendy, but Rocky’s is still<br />
Salmon Gorgonzola<br />
good hearty fare with the owner in attendance,”<br />
said Dave of Delray.<br />
Rocky’s also has sublime desserts that include<br />
homemade tiramisu and the best Cannolis<br />
on the planet. A warning – this creamy<br />
chocolate chip delight is intoxicating with<br />
soft chocolate adorned shell, Impastata<br />
Ricotta Cheese lightly whipped with cream.<br />
Like Jalain says in his review, “It felt like<br />
we were on an Italian TV Cooking Show.<br />
Homemade food constantly came out and<br />
everything was fresh. The coffee and dessert<br />
were flawless and my palate was rejoicing.”<br />
It’s hard to beat that review – but Rocky<br />
continues to try to outdo himself and give<br />
diners the food they crave with the utmost<br />
care and attention to detail and flavor.<br />
Saturday night at Rocky’s is an all out<br />
party that combines live music with luscious<br />
homemade food. Start out with Sinatra<br />
and Motown classics and after 9pm<br />
groove to the electrifying sounds of karaoke<br />
with a professional singer. “It’s an evening<br />
you won’t forget – we invite you to join us<br />
for live music and fantastic food.”<br />

MISC ║ ask the petxpert<br />
Major changes over the past two decades<br />
in the veterinary medicine field<br />
have expanded the use of many unapproved<br />
drugs for use in our pets. This practice<br />
of using “off label” drugs means the use has not<br />
been approved for the condition being treated<br />
or tested for correct dosage. This practice is<br />
your veterinarian, usually upon the advice of a<br />
pharmaceutical representative experimenting<br />
therapy with your pet. A good example is the excessive<br />
use of antibiotics. They are routinely administered<br />
before any diagnosis is determined.<br />
A new area of major concern is the excessive<br />
use of prescription pain medications for<br />
our pets. As they cannot verbalize their level or<br />
even existence of pain, how can we determine<br />
the dosage, frequency or the proper type of pain<br />
medication to be administered? Medical doctors<br />
and pharmacists often change your pain<br />
medications based on your communications<br />
with them. You can tell them if it is working, by<br />
the levels of pain you experience, if it is upsetting<br />
other bodily functions such as digestion,<br />
sleep patterns, mobility and mental state. These<br />
observations determine whether to continue or<br />
discontinue the use of these medications.<br />
Unfortunately, your pet can’t tell you that the<br />
dose is too low or too high. They can’t tell you<br />
that it’s causing psychological or physiologic<br />
changes or challenges. They can’t tell you that<br />
ask the petXpert<br />
Is My Pet Addicted to<br />
Pain Medications?<br />
they need an increased prescription time period.<br />
They also can’t tell you that even in that<br />
short time, they have become addicted. They<br />
also can’t tell you about withdrawal.<br />
We are not sure if you or your veterinarian<br />
has ever addressed or even thought of this specific<br />
challenge that your pet is now facing. What<br />
are the symptoms? How do they feel? What is<br />
biochemically occurring in their body?<br />
Most people don’t realize that synthetic<br />
sweeteners are actually narcotics. Yes, that artificial<br />
sweetener in many pet foods can be a Class<br />
2 narcotic and can make your pet addicted in a<br />
matter of days with all the side effects and the<br />
withdrawal effects. This can and often happens<br />
with many other drugs and medications as well.<br />
If we are aware of the many side effects and<br />
adverse events associated with these medications<br />
and food additives, plus the inability of<br />
communication from our pets, why would we<br />
subject them to this? There are many ways<br />
to treat and mitigate pain, inflammation, bacterial,<br />
fungal and viral challenges that don’t<br />
have these adverse event listings. Food, herbs,<br />
botanicals and mineral salts have been used<br />
successfully since the dawn of time to allow the<br />
body to heal itself naturally. If your pet is sore<br />
from an injury, let it rest and heal. With gastric<br />
challenges, they may need to fast in order to<br />
rest and heal the digestive tract. As pet owners<br />
These pets are avAILABLE for adoption<br />
and caregivers, we are ultimately responsible<br />
for the health, care and well-being of our pets.<br />
While we look to the veterinary industry for<br />
help and guidance, it is ultimately our responsibility<br />
to seek the knowledge of species appropriate<br />
foods and natural care to provide our<br />
pets with an optimal life.<br />
The practice of Medicine was developed to<br />
help and cure illness. Unfortunately, with the<br />
progress of modern technology and the utilization<br />
of numerous synthetics, drugs and<br />
products this practice frequently mitigates<br />
and hides a symptom while creating additional<br />
profits for business. Symptoms are signs of<br />
imbalance and can only remedied by lifestyle<br />
and dietary changes. These changes can only<br />
occur by seeking knowledge, understanding<br />
and experience of the species we have chosen<br />
as our pet. Bouncing from one pain medicine to<br />
another or one brand of kibble to another will<br />
not cure the body. Changing the pet’s lifestyle<br />
closer to what nature intended will bring your<br />
pet greater health and happiness.<br />

The Butterball Turkey<br />
Hotline’s Most Extreme Calls<br />
by Janna Weiss<br />
{<br />
Why is the Thanksgiving turkey such a mysterious creature? We eat<br />
it with the greatest of ease, but cooking it is another matter. Turkeys<br />
frequently come out overcooked, undercooked, and occasionally covered<br />
in edible pink glitter and body paint. (Trust me. I saw it on YouTube.)<br />
That’s not the worst of it, though. Butterball<br />
hosts a hotline that fields about 100,000<br />
calls each Thanksgiving and Christmas. Some<br />
of those calls have been publicly disclosed because<br />
they’re just so funny. There have been<br />
documented calls from first-time turkey bakers<br />
who worried that the bird would rise like<br />
a loaf of bread when cooked. There have been<br />
frantic calls from harried hosts that cleaned<br />
their birds with metal scouring pads, and now<br />
needed help getting the metal bits out of the<br />
turkey. And there has even been a call from<br />
an aspiring cook who wondered how best to<br />
carve their bird with a chainsaw, and whether<br />
motor oil could be used to make a good baste.<br />
But the following three anecdotes have to be<br />
the very best of the worst. They have been confirmed<br />
as real calls by the Butterball Turkey-<br />
Talk Line and Snopes.Com. As you read them,<br />
remind yourself that, no matter what you do,<br />
your turkey will probably come out better than<br />
the ones listed here!<br />
“Dude, Where’s My Turkey?”<br />
It’s not easy to misplace a turkey. But it<br />
happened to a caller from Colorado, who<br />
shoved her turkey into a snow bank to store<br />
overnight, as she had no room in her fridge.<br />
She called the Turkey Talk-Line to ask if it<br />
would be okay to eat the turkey after it had<br />
been stored thusly. However, she soon found<br />
that a heavy blanket of snow had fallen. The<br />
white, featureless landscape made it impossible<br />
for her to find where she had buried the<br />
turkey. We never learned if she recovered the<br />
bird. If not, well, at least the local wildlife had<br />
a nice buffet once the snow melted.<br />

“What’s that Smell?”<br />
A young mother once shared her tale of<br />
turkey woe. Apparently, her kids had been<br />
playing in the kitchen while she was stuffing<br />
the turkey. These kids were fond of matchbox<br />
cars, and had decided that their toys needed<br />
a new place to park. Many hours later, the<br />
mother discovered that the kids had chosen<br />
the turkey for their new parking space. It isn’t<br />
clear whether she discovered the toy cars immediately<br />
after removing the turkey from the<br />
oven, or if they were revealed during carving.<br />
Regardless, those turned out to be some<br />
hot, melted, and probably traumatized<br />
little vehicles. She should<br />
have entered a contest for the most<br />
creative stuffing recipe.<br />
“Help! The Turkey Ate<br />
my Chihuahua!”<br />
Speaking of things stuck<br />
in a turkey…<br />
A Kentucky woman called<br />
the Butterball Turkey-Talk Line<br />
in 1993, asking how to get her<br />
Chihuahua out of a turkey. It soon<br />
became apparent that the tiny dog<br />
had dived right into the carcass and<br />
couldn’t get back out. Pulling the dog<br />
didn’t work. Shaking the turkey didn’t<br />
work. Finally, she was instructed to make<br />
the hole a little bigger so that the pooch could<br />
escape. It worked! At least she didn’t have to<br />
perform a C-Section.<br />
Marge Klindera has been working at<br />
the Butterball hotline for 25 years. She<br />
says that callers are usually very grateful<br />
for the advice they receive. And what do<br />
Turkey-Talk Line employees eat while they’re<br />
at work? Usually hot soup. Marge says it helps<br />
sooth their throats after all the talking.

grocery shopping annoyances<br />
by Janna Weiss<br />
{<br />
Grocery shopping is a fact of life. We all have to have food to put in<br />
our refrigerators and on our tables at meal time, but sometimes<br />
grocery shopping can be an exercise in frustration. Why? Because<br />
of the aggravating things people do while grocery shopping, those<br />
glaring examples of life’s little annoyances. Here are some of the most<br />
annoying things people do while grocery shopping:<br />
People talk on their cell phones.<br />
Yes, cell phones can be a good thing. If<br />
you’re stranded on the side of a deserted<br />
highway with a car that won’t start, it’s<br />
good to know you can reach into your glove<br />
department and pull out your cell phone to<br />
get help. But is it really important to talk<br />
to your friend Nancy about what she had<br />
for dinner last night while you’re grocery<br />
shopping? Often these conversations get so<br />
intense that the grocery shopper forgets to<br />
steer the grocery cart accurately and a near<br />
collision almost occurs. Plus, imagine all of<br />
the high frequency waves those cell phones<br />
must be sending out. Let’s hope that cell<br />
phone waves don’t cause cancer.<br />
People block the aisles with<br />
their carts.<br />
Have you ever been cruising down a grocery<br />
store aisle eager to find the jar of peanut<br />
butter you made a special trip for? You<br />
reach the peanut butter aisle and are forced<br />
to an abrupt stop by a grocery cart blocking<br />
the section you need to access. For some<br />
reason the driver of the grocery cart seems<br />
completely oblivious to your situation and<br />
continues reading labels or, even worse, talking<br />
on her cell phone. Your stress level rises<br />
as you contort your tired body into a variety<br />
of challenging positions to reach around that<br />
cart and get your jar of peanut butter. So<br />
much for a relaxing trip to the grocery store.<br />
People give their children free<br />
reign of the store.<br />
Kids can be a delight but not when they’re<br />
given free reign of the grocery store. Children<br />
can become quite loud and overbearing<br />
when confronted with aisles of cookies,<br />
candies, and sweet cereals they’d like to<br />
take home. When their demands are unmet<br />
by their distracted moms, their cries can<br />
reach a fevered pitch. This can easily make<br />
you forget the grocery items you came for<br />
unless you have a list in hand. Plus, there’s<br />
always the danger of a frantic kid running<br />
in front of a rapidly moving grocery cart.<br />
Sigh! It’s just another one of life’s little grocery<br />
shopping annoyances.<br />
Some people lack grocery<br />
checkout etiquette.<br />
Many grocery stores have a checkout line<br />
designated as the express line. These lines<br />
usually clearly display a sign stating the<br />
maximum number of items a shopper can<br />
have to use that line. Obviously, some people<br />
can’t read or want to pretend they can’t.<br />
It’s not uncommon to see a shopper pull up<br />
to the express line talking on a cell phone,<br />
pushing a cart weighed down with thirty or<br />
more items. So much for that sign that limits<br />
you to ten items or less. You can practically<br />
see steam coming out of the ears of the<br />
person behind her who’s holding a carton of<br />
milk and needs to get back to work.<br />
Yes, the grocery store shopping experience<br />
can be a challenge when you’re confronted<br />
with the reality of life’s little grocery<br />
shopping annoyances. It’s enough to make<br />
you want to order your groceries online.<br />
