Our Second Annual JFD Summer Celebration was everything we hoped for and more! Dear friends gathered, laughter and conversation filled the air, and Chef Jared Gadbaw (@oakandreel) and his team prepared food that was truly out of this world 💫

From start to finish, every bite was a reminder of why we love sharing these moments around food with friends.
We are so grateful to everyone who joined us. Your presence, your joy, and your friendship are what make this celebration so meaningful. Nights like these remind us how blessed we are to share not just incredible food, but unforgettable memories together.

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for being part of this tradition with us. We’re already counting down until next year ☀️

One of our favorite new traditions is the Annual Tomato Dinner at Table 5. Now in its second year, and a first under the guidance of Chef Maddie Grupa, this beloved event continues to celebrate one of summer’s greatest ingredients with creativity, warmth, and community.

The tomatoes for the event always come from Scott Welcer of Welcer Farms, who shares stories from his fields and his collaborations with local chefs, a reminder of the deep and essential connection between farmer, chef, and diner.

This year began with a clever twist: the “Salad Course” arrived not on a plate but in a glass. Crafted by Carley Bologna of Cocktails with Carley, the caprese-inspired cocktail was playful, refreshing, and something we’d happily sip all summer long.

We ended our Florida food adventure at Knife & Spoon, a restaurant and team very dear to us. Whenever we visit the Ritz-Carlton Orlando, Grande Lakes, dining here is a must. Over the years, we’ve lost count of the many delightful dinners we’ve shared at this table and we look forward to many more.

For our family, Knife & Spoon is more than a culinary destination; it holds cherished memories. It was here that Emma experienced holding her very first Michelin star, a milestone that makes this restaurant forever special to us.

A heartfelt thank you to @drewbirdonesloane for joining us this week. It was such a joy to share these meals and memories together.

To read more about our past visits, visit www.jabrifinedining.com and search Knife & Spoon under Domestic Michelin.

To know Carmine is to know he loves his Disaronno but also his noble rot. Thanks to Juan Valencia, we were treated to a once-in-a-lifetime pour of Royal Tokaji, elegantly served on a crystal spoon. Juan’s deep knowledge of wine and sake earlier in the evening with our savory courses was matched by his warmth and generosity, making him a true guide through the evening. The pairings didn’t just complement the food, they elevated the entire journey.

Ômo by Jônt in Winter Park
With only 16 seats per night, Ômo is an intimate Michelin-starred experience where
every detail feels personal. We chose The Jaunt tasting menu with pairings—and it was
worth every moment.

At just 33, Chef Ryan Ratino is already one of America’s youngest chefs to hold two
Michelin-starred concepts, and now he brings that vision to Florida. From Nanatsuboshi Rice Hokkaido at the chef’s counter to a magical pastry finale with Keely Moore, the
evening unfolded like a story.

And the hospitality? Juan Valencia guiding us through wine and sake pairings including
Royal Tokaji on a crystal spoon, was unforgettable.

On constant repeat every time we’re in Florida is Soseki in Winter Park. 🍣
What began as a hidden gem has become a family ritual. We’ve officially lost count of how many times we’ve sat at this counter, because it’s Emma’s favorite domestic omakase.
This visit was extra special: finally meeting Chef Mike Collantes, whose vision has kept Soseki Michelin-starred since 2022, and experiencing the gracious hospitality of new beverage manager Sean Michael Flynn, whose pairings elevated the evening beautifully.
Seats here are highly coveted, so plan ahead. Looking back at photos of Emma at her favorite sushi counter it’s easy to see why Soseki holds such a lasting place in our hearts.

Our second visit to Foreigner reminded us why Chef Bruno Fonseca and his team are creating one of Orlando’s most memorable chef’s tasting menu experiences. Out of ten courses, eight were completely new from our previous visit, a testament to their constant evolution and artistry.
What made us happiest? Our two favorites returned. We hope the black egg and charcuterie never leave the menu.
And one piece of advice: always say yes to the caviar option. Midway through the meal, you’ll be treated to @petrossiannyc Royal Ossetra, served on a beautiful silver platter with duck-fat Pont Neuf potatoes, egg yolk jam, pickled shallots, and preserved lemon crème fraîche.
It’s this thoughtful balance of innovation, heritage, and indulgence that makes Foreigner unforgettable.

When you talk about Florida cuisine, it’s impossible not to mention Norman Van Aken. Credited as the “Founding Father of New World Cuisine”, his Norman’s has long been a destination for food lovers.
Our journey with Norman’s began back at the Ritz-Carlton days, and the new Orlando location carries that same sense of elegance just with a fresh, stunning setting. Over the years, a few dishes have become part of our own Norman’s tradition: the blue crab beignets, fried green tomatoes, roasted bone marrow, prime beef tartare, and tuna crudo.
Florida food lovers always have a lively debate about the new vs. old location. At JFD, we’ll always be nostalgic for the Ritz, especially for one ritual that stands out in our memories: the ceviche cart, rolled to the table and prepared right in front of you. @normanvanaken can we bring back this classic?
New chapter, same brilliance. Norman’s continues to remind us why Florida is a dining destination all its own.

What makes Capa especially remarkable, though, is not just the food, but the service.
Michelin recognition is as much about hospitality as it is about cuisine, and here the staff are consistently warm, accommodating, attentive and always making sure children feel as valued as adults at the table.
So whether you’re in town for Disney or simply enjoying Orlando with your family, Capa offers the rare combination of elevated dining and a genuinely kid-welcoming environment. Proof that Michelin-starred meals can be both refined and family-friendly, it’s a restaurant that belongs on every Orlando itinerary.

Much like Zaytinya is our tradition in NYC, our first stop in Orlando is always Highball & Harvest at the Ritz-Carlton. Over the years, we’ve polished off gallons of their famous Southern Spread, their pimento cheese is pure comfort in a mason jar.
This spot holds so many nostalgic memories for us, but it’s the food that keeps us coming back. Sourcing locally keeps the menu fresh, dynamic, and deeply connected to Florida.
A standout this trip? The Smoked Local Eggplant, a stunning plate of Fairytale eggplant, Japanese eggplant, pickled figs, dill labneh, roasted Seminole pumpkin, and an old-fashioned glaze. Delicious!

Detroit is lucky to have Oak & Reel a restaurant that consistently delivers excellence yet still surprises us. For August, Chef Jared Gadbaw has set aside his signature Italian dishes to create an exclusively French menu. It’s experiences like this that remind us how fortunate we are as a community. The menu is thoughtful, seasonal, and full of flavor from perfectly fried ratatouille-stuffed squash blossoms to buttery escargot over wild rice risotto.

Detroit’s dining scene is richer because of places like Oak & Reel, restaurants willing to
share a piece of their story, and give us something we’ll remember long after the last
bite. This French menu is here only through August, and it’s one worth making at least a
few trips for.

Putting the skills we learned with @zesergio_hrdxb into practice for a special family dinner: Red Smoked Aguachile. Although delicious, we think a few more lessons might be in order.
@tamokadubai remains one of our favorite places in the world to experience ceviche, and we were fortunate enough to enjoy a masterclass with Chef Sergio himself. Before this class, we never would have thought to experiment with ceviche at home. Now, still very much novices, we’re inspired to keep learning and refining our skills.

On a visit to Smyth in Chicago, we were inspired by the way they displayed menus as works of art. Rather than storing menus from our own fine dining experiences away in a drawer, we decided to frame some of them so we could enjoy them daily as part of our dining room décor.

Smyth
Oriole
Per Se

Charlie Trotter – Next
Chef’s Table at Brooklyn Fare

We are absolutely hooked on the Chef’s Garden boxes. 🍕🍽️ Not only have they been a time-saver (perfect, peak-season produce delivered right to our door), but they’ve also inspired us to explore ingredients we never would’ve reached for at the market.
Enter: Squash Blossoms.
My favorite squash blossoms? Without a doubt, Oak & Reel. On our last visit, we had the chance to talk food with Chef Chris, always a highlight, and he shared a simple but brilliant idea!
Lesson of the week? Talk to your local chefs. Their tips, stories, and passion can turn your home kitchen into something special.

At Jabri Fine Dining, we eat out a lot, it comes with the territory 😊. But few restaurants in Metro Detroit have become part of our regular rhythm quite like Casa Pernoi.
Chef Luciano DelSignore’s Birmingham flagship blends timeless fine dining technique with a modern sensibility something increasingly rare, and even harder to execute well. From the crisp white tablecloths to the best breadbasket in town and a seasoned, attentive staff, it’s a restaurant that doesn’t try to reinvent the wheel it just keeps the engine running flawlessly.
And the service? Impeccable. Our beloved Anthony has been taking care of us for over a decade, elevating each visit with grace, care, and consistency. It’s a relationship we value deeply and look forward to continuing for years to come.
Over the years, Casa Pernoi has hosted more than a few JFD moments: family birthdays, post-event wind-downs, team dinners that turn into full-course affairs. It’s reliable in the best way—thoughtful service, consistent execution, and an ambiance that just works, no matter the occasion.

SheWolf A Night at The Opera

Detroit had its own slice of Verona this Monday night as SheWolf hosted A Night at the Opera, an enchanting celebration inspired by the legendary Arena di Verona Opera Festival.

At JFD, we love a dining experience. In fine dining, ingredients are foundational, but what truly sets a meal apart is the storytelling, the setting, and the soul behind it. A Night at the Opera at SheWolf was very much in that spirit. It wasn’t just the impeccable dishes. It was the atmosphere. The artistry. The shared joy of watching a kitchen and dining room move in harmony to create something fleeting and unforgettable.

If you follow us at Jabri Fine Dining, you already know our love for Table 5 runs deep. 🍷🍽️ It’s our Saturday ritual, our neighborhood gem, and the kind of place where the food and the faces feel like home. We’ve celebrated their seasonal menus, raved about their cult-favorite butter cake, and shared countless memories gathered around their tables.
So when Table 5 announced a special Daou Wine Dinner we didn’t hesitate. If you ever get the opportunity, don’t miss out. These special evenings are reserved for true food and wine enthusiasts who appreciate the magic that happens when a talented chef and team, expertly curated pairings, and warm hospitality come together in perfect harmony.
This particular dinner was especially significant as it marked the first wine dinner under newly appointed Head Chef Maddie Grupa. With a string of competitive culinary wins already under her belt, Chef Maddie’s debut was confident, refined, and full of promise. She brought a fresh yet grounded perspective to the kitchen, crafting a menu that was both technically impressive and soulfully delicious.
But more than just a single dish or pairing, the Daou Wine Dinner reminded us of what makes Table 5 so special. It’s not just about the food, though the food continues to impress, it’s about the care, the community, and the commitment to creating moments worth savoring.

Friday night + friends + the tasting menu = a recipe for something truly special.🍷✨
Whenever we try a new restaurant, we always go with the tasting menu and Freya absolutely delivered. Each course was beautifully composed, thoughtfully balanced, and showcased a clear sense of purpose and creativity.
But what truly elevated the evening was the hospitality. Warm, genuine, and incredibly thoughtful, Freya’s team made the experience memorable from start to finish.

As part of the incredible Culinary Collective series at Oak & Reel, we had the honor of attending one of the 90 Chefs for 90 Years celebration dinners honoring the legendary Jacques Pépin. A full house of food lovers, chefs, and admirers gathered not just to eat, but to pay tribute to one of the most iconic figures in culinary arts.
This event was one of 90 chef-hosted celebrations across the country, each marking a year of Jacques Pépin’s extraordinary life and career. Even more meaningful, proceeds from each dinner support the Jacques Pépin Foundation, which is devoted to empowering communities through culinary education. It’s a mission as generous and inspiring as the man himself.
To Jacques Pépin: thank you for a lifetime of flavor, finesse, and heart. To know that you’ve touched so many lives that ninety chefs and restaurants came together to honor you it’s a testament to the enduring power of your legacy.
And to Oak & Reel: thank you for being the kind of place where food becomes art, and where legacies are honored not just with applause, but with plates that speak volumes.

It’s a mission as generous and inspiring as the man himself.
To Jacques Pépin: thank you for a lifetime of flavor, finesse, and heart. To know that you’ve touched so many lives that ninety chefs and restaurants came together to honor you it’s a testament to the enduring power of your legacy.
And to Oak & Reel: thank you for being the kind of place where food becomes art, and where legacies are honored not just with applause, but with plates that speak volumes.

Table 5 New Summer Menu
If there’s ever been a restaurant that feels like an extension of our home, it’s Table 5.
Nestled in the heart of downtown Northville, Table 5 has always been our place where we reconnect, celebrate, decompress, and savor. It’s a constant in our ever-changing schedule, earning a well-deserved spot in our weekly rotation whenever we’re home. And when we say we eat there weekly, we mean it. Our friends, family, and even our staff know where we are every Saturday night. It’s such a ritual that it takes a very good reason for us to miss it.
One of the things we love most is the ever-evolving weekly specials, a new appetizer, soup, and entrée every time we walk in the door. There have been weeks where we didn’t order a single thing from the regular menu simply because the specials were that good. It’s like a surprise party for your palate every single time.
And just in time for the season, the new summer menu has arrived. We’re pacing ourselves, but two early standouts already have us hooked: the Tomato Carpaccio, impossibly fresh and bursting with summer flavor, and the Spicy Shrimp, which brings the perfect balance of heat and brightness. If these are any indication of what’s ahead, we’re in for an unforgettable summer.

Oak & Reel’s crostini is always bursting with flavor and absolutely gorgeous. Built on perfectly toasted, house-made sourdough and topped with everchanging seasonal ingredients, it’s a dish that delivers both taste and visual wow.

From vibrant toppings to that irresistible crunch it’s balanced, bold, and never boring. Always a family favorite.

Oriole is simply exquisite.

Last Saturday, we had the privilege of finally making it back to @oriolechi and it was even more magical than we remembered.

Tucked discreetly behind an unassuming doorway in Chicago’s West Loop, the journey begins with a step into a freight elevator, a threshold that transports you from the industrial streetscape into a world of refined luxury and exceptional fine dining. Once inside, every moment that follows is deliberately choreographed to heighten anticipation and reward curiosity.

Our first visit left such an impression that we’ve been trying to find a way back ever since. Stunning in its minimalism and warmth, Oriole’s ambiance balances quiet elegance with a sense of discovery. The food is absolutely exceptional. Each course is a whisper of technique, a celebration of flavor, and a testament to the team’s creative precision.

And the service? Seamless, intuitive, deeply personal, and absolutely wonderful. The team welcomed our questions with enthusiasm and offered thoughtful insights. Every interaction felt sincere, rooted in hospitality and a clear passion for what they do.

@mabelgraykitchen in Hazel Park isn’t the easiest reservation to land and now we see why. This small, energetic space has a dedicated following, and for good reason.
We went with the tasting menu, which changes daily and leans into bold, creative expressions of seasonal ingredients. The atmosphere is loud, lively, and full of personality much like the food and the service was exceptional.
Emma enjoyed the Steak frites and spring roll filled with seafood mousse. Needless to say we also enjoyed a bite.

Kira’s birthday bites done right. Thank you to @greyghostdetroit for the modern comfort food that always hits the spot. The new additions are winners, the crab ravioli and the calzone absolutely delivered and of course, this is the home of the BEST BURGER in Michigan. Every bite was delicious. Cheers to another trip around the sun 🥂

Boka has been on our radar for quite some time, and we finally made the reservation we’ve been meaning to for years. Tucked into Chicago’s Lincoln Park neighborhood, Boka has earned a reputation for being one of the city’s most consistently excellent fine dining destinations and after our recent visit, we can confidently say that reputation is well-deserved.

Holding a Michelin star since 2011, Boka has maintained this honor for well over a decade, no small feat in the ever-evolving culinary world. Its longevity speaks volumes about the consistency of its food, service, and overall experience. The restaurant effortlessly balances contemporary elegance with a warm, approachable atmosphere that puts you at ease while still feeling utterly refined.

We opted for the tasting menu, which proved to be the perfect way to experience the full range of the kitchen’s creativity. We also added the Golden Osetra caviar service an indulgence that elevated the evening and underscored the luxurious, celebratory feel of the meal.

When we first brought Emma to @makochicago she was a shy novice, intrigued but uncertain, curious about the process but hesitant to engage fully. Fast-forward to this visit, and we saw a completely different side of her. Not only did she appreciate the nuance of flavors from delicate cuts of toro to the variety of nigiri but she also proudly took photos of each dish, capturing them like works of art. (She’s now Jabri Fine Dining’s official photographer, after all.) What was once quiet observation has evolved into confident appreciation and creative expression.
And Kira had her own breakthrough moment—finally embracing sea urchin after a brilliant pro-tip from our server: ‘Take a bite of ginger before the uni.’ Game. Changed.
For our family, putting a Michelin experience on “repeat” isn’t about recreating a meal it’s about revisiting a memory and seeing how we’ve grown alongside it. Mako gave us that gift. A familiar setting, yes but with new conversation, deeper appreciation, and more shared family moments.

Last night we had the pleasure of attending Detroit: The City of Chefs II a celebration of culinary excellence showcasing some of the region’s most talented country club chefs. We were especially proud to support our very own Chef Tederran Brundidge or “Chef T,” as we know him from @forestlakecc
One of the best parts of the night was seeing these chefs go off-menu and let their creativity shine. It was so much fun to taste dishes that reflected their personal styles, passions, and bold flavors you don’t always get to see at the club.
Events like this remind us why it’s so important to support our local chefs. They show up for us even when they’re tired, working long hours to help us celebrate birthdays, milestones, and everyday moments. Through the highs and lows, they pour their passion into every dish bringing people together, one plate at a time.
Detroit’s food scene is in incredible hands.

From the moment you arrive, you’re greeted like a regular, even if it’s your first visit. The staff’s energy is infectious, blending laid-back charm with impeccable attention.
One of the highlights of our experience was the incredible opportunity to take a master chef’s class with Chef de Cuisine @zesergio_hrdxb himself. More on that unforgettable experience soon, but it was an honor to learn from such a passionate, creative talent.

Under the quiet mastery of @hosekisugiyama821 a seasoned sushi chef from Tokyo, guests are invited into a refined culinary journey shaped by tradition, precision, and trust. There is no menu.

A tasting menu that felt more like modern art than a meal. @esme_chicago is less a restaurant and more an immersive art installation, where every plate is a brushstroke, and every course a conversation. With its deeply conceptual approach to both food and space, Esme has earned its place among the most avant-garde dining destinations in the country.

For lovers of modern art, Esme is a dream. The restaurant partners with local artists and reimagines the space and menu regularly around curated themes. It’s an ever-evolving gallery, where creativity spills from the walls onto the plate. Even the menu presentation feels like a nod to a contemporary exhibit.

Sometimes you just need to put down the fork and knife and embrace the moment, messy hands and all. The burger @greyghostdetroit is one of our absolute favorites. Juicy, flavorful, unapologetically indulgent and yes, we highly recommend adding the egg.
This isn’t fine dining. This is fun dining. Pack your Wet Ones and dive in. You won’t regret it. 🍔

If we could visit only one Michelin-starred restaurant in NYC, it would be the iconic @lebernardinny and it’s no surprise this one’s always on repeat for our family. With world-class seafood, flawless service, and an unexpectedly warm welcome for young diners, it’s where luxury meets inclusivity. Watching our daughter discover the joy of caviar—thanks to the gracious and thoughtful team—was unforgettable. Le Bernardin isn’t just a dining experience; it’s a masterclass in hospitality, led by the vision of Chef Eric Ripert. A must for any family that loves exceptional food and lasting memories.

A return to @everrestaurant is never just a meal it’s an experience. From Oscietra caviar to short rib and rhubarb sweets, this spring’s tasting menu was a poetic expression of Chef Curtis Duffy’s vision.
It was also wonderful to share the evening with special friends moments like these make fine dining even more memorable.
We’re counting down the days until Chef Duffy’s upcoming book is released. If you’ve seen For Grace, you know the story behind Ever is just as powerful as every dish.

Memorial Day Weekend 2025

At Jabri Fine Dining, we pause with gratitude for the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice and because of them, we’re able to gather freely and joyfully with the people we love.
This long weekend, we stayed close to home and indulged in a few of our local favorites. We returned to @oakandreel and @table5northville ,and finally made it to @sanmorellodetroit , a spot we’ve been meaning to try. The weekend ended on the perfect note with a laid-back cookout among friends at FLCC.
Food always brings us together, but weekends like this remind us why that time matters so much.

The first time we dined at @chefstablebrooklynfare at Brooklyn Fare led by chefs @maxnatmessnig and @marcoprinsny , we were convinced we had taken a wrong turn. Tucked behind a bustling gourmet grocery store in Hell’s Kitchen this unassuming location hides one of New York’s most extraordinary fine dining experiences. Imagine stepping through the pages of The Secret Garden—except instead of roses and ivy, you’re greeted by foie gras, wagyu, and Hokkaido uni.

Walk past the deli counter, shelves of shampoo, locally roasted coffees, and specialty condiments, and a friendly employee will simply point you “in the back.” What lies beyond is an unexpected oasis of luxury and precision, an intimate space where world-class cuisine unfolds course by course, like a symphony performed in secret.
