Good Things Come In Threes:

Phuc Yea Launches W³ Wednesday: Wagyu, Wine & Whiskey

Who/What:

Kicking off on Wednesday, April 13, Chef Cesar Zapata and Aniece Meinhold of Miami’s modern-Vietnamese mainstay, Phuc Yea, will launch W³ Wednesday: Wagyu, Wine & Whiskey. Comprised of three wagyu dishes, three whiskey specials and three wine offerings every Wednesday, guests can enjoy a specially priced, luxury tasting experience. Debuting on the dinner menu is Zapata’s Wagyu Banh Mi Burger, a delightful iteration of the Vietnamese-style sandwich made with a 6 oz. Australian wagyu beef patty topped with caramelized onions, herbage, house-made pickles and sriracha aioli served on a garlicky, buttered brioche bun; Vietnamese Beef Salad made with thinly sliced Australian wagyu picanha, bean sprouts, peanuts, major herbage and greens drizzled with lemongrass nuoc cham vinaigrette; and Wagyu Picanha with truffled lemongrass ponzu, Petrosian paddlefish caviar, and Malden sea salt. The hump day deals don’t stop there, also on offer are $1.50 East Coast/$2.50 West Coast Oysters available all night long.

Behind the bar, cocktail connoisseur Aniece Meinhold will offer a number of boozy beverages pairing perfectly with the above dishes. Priced at $14, guests can indulge in select whiskies served neat or with a choice of mixer in addition to the Lucky Cheng, a unique riff on a Manhattan made with Old Grand Dad Bourbon, black cardamom-infused Cocchi Vermouth di Torino, Nux Alpina walnut liqueur, house bitters blend. Also on offer, The Hefner ($25) – The Macallan 12 double cask, apple, Drambuie, sherry and carbonated in-house.

It wouldn’t be a Wednesday without a wine down! Sip on bottomless red, white and rosé or enjoy a premium wine flight for just $35. In addition, all by-the-glass pours will be served at 50% off the list price.
