This iconic Italian sandwich shop is opening two locations in Miami
Founded in 1991 by the Mazzanti family, the original Florence shop began as a humble wine-and-snack counter before evolving into a global sensation, earning the title 'Home of the World's Best Sandwiches' from Saveur in 2016. Today, with , Los Angeles, Las Vegas and Dubai, All'Antico Vinaio continues to sling its signature schiacciata bread and cured meats to eager crowds.
Now, Miami gets its turn.

The new locations promise to channel the same rustic charm and flavor as the Italian flagship, with sandwiches piled high with prosciutto, creamy pecorino, truffle spreads and sun-dried tomatoes slicked with olive oil. Favorites like La Favolosa (featuring spicy eggplant and salame) and La Paradiso (that's stracciatella and pistachio cream) are expected to join the menu, alongside the shop's famously messy—and Instagrammable—creations.
Driving the brand's stateside expansion is Tommaso Mazzanti, who teamed up with Tanya Bastianich Manuali and her brother, restaurateur and MasterChef judge Joe Bastianich. The group has maintained a consistent feel across locations, featuring bread baked fresh daily, imported Italian ingredients and a vibe that exudes Italian street food with a touch of chic.
Though exact opening dates haven't been announced yet, we suggest brushing up on your sandwich-ordering Italian (and patience). Judging by the buzz in every city it lands in, All'Antico Vinaio is likely to bring Lincoln Road to a standstill.

An Italian throuple on Khao Lak's shore
Bangkok is a city built on high energy. Its chaotic pace pushes its residents to keep up or fall behind. When two of its most talented Italian chefs are trading the concrete jungle for the calm shores of Khao Lak, it creates what they call 'a dialogue between Bangkok's energy and Khao Lak's quietude'. This unique collaboration takes the chefs out of their usual comfort zone and into new creative territory. The stars of this event are three distinct culinary voices. First is Chef Michele Fernando from the pizza powerhouse Massilia, rooted in Neapolitan tradition. His skill centres on perfecting the dough while his approach balances tradition and fresh ideas, always finding a spark of creativity to give each pizza a personal touch. He is joined by Chef Marco Avesani of the fine dining spot, La Bottega Bangkok, whose cooking reflects cucina popolare: the home cooking of everyday people. He aims to recreate the warmth of family meals, the joy of sharing simple dishes and a sense of community. Leading the trio is their host, Chef Vincenzo 'Enzo' Sorrentino of JW Marriott Khao Lak Resort & Spa's Olive restaurant. With Italian and Spanish roots, Enzo infuses a Mediterranean spirit into his cooking. He is the playful innovator, a chef who embraces fusion and fire cooking to turn rustic dishes into modern art, all while using local Thai ingredients from the resort's JW Garden. This collision of styles is what makes the event so appealing. Marco brings the warmth and soul of Italian home cooking, Michele shares his exceptional pizza skills and respect for Naples' culinary roots and Enzo adds his creative flair. As Chef Marco explains 'Cooking at a place like JW Marriott Khao Lak challenges us in exciting ways. It's a beautiful setting, and that naturally raises the standard. That challenge sparks creativity, leading us to dishes we might not have thought of in our kitchens.' The two-night event explores these culinary worlds. On Friday, August 29, the a la carte menu features a family-style Italian dinner, allowing guests to pick and share dishes from all three chefs. On Saturday evening, the event evolves into a lavish affair with live cooking shows. Your senses will hum with anticipation as you arrive at a massive spread of Italian delights. For the chefs, this collaboration celebrates Italian hospitality and enables them to elevate their craft. 'We want our guests to feel welcome, to share approachable dishes and to leave with joyful moments', they say. 'Experiences like this also influence our work: seeing how people react motivates us to keep progressing.'

Signs suddenly appeared on the pub saying it was 'temporarily closed' sparking fears it had gone for good. Food pro Sitwell — who is a regular guest judge on the hit BBC show — says he's stepping in to give the place a new lease of life. The GB News commentator told his 25,000 Instagram followers he wants to transform the spot into a 'chic hotel and Italian restaurant' to keep the much-loved site alive. The Biting Talk podcast host revealed: "STOP PRESS!! NEWS!!! As The White Hart, Wiveliscombe, West Somerset, closes I'm delighted to announce my plan for it to rise again as a chic hotel and Italian restaurant. "Casa Wivey will be a fabulous, accessible family restaurant with a great bar and work space and I'm teaming up with the best in the business in the area to make it happen. "After 25 years writing about food and drink this is my first serious venture into the hospitality business alongside the hugely successful Sitwell Supper Club. "Join me in on my journey and become an investor. Click on the link above for more info. Let's do this!! Long Live Wivey! Keep Wivey Great!" Fellow chefs offered their congratulations. John Torode wrote: "Bl**dy brilliant... happy to help where I can!!" Phil Vickery agreed: "Great news and wishing you every success." BBC botches bid to edit out sacked duo Gregg Wallace & John Torode from new Masterchef amid calls to axe scandal-hit show Aldo Zilli penned: "Best of luck mate finally you will be on the other side." Somerset residents praised: "Wow, looks forward to watching what happens and visit as live locally." Another commended: "Very exciting and brilliant news for West Somerset!" "Brilliant News and excellent plan," noted a third happy local. The star is set to relaunch the historic 17th century coaching inn alongside Jon Coward and his wife Millie, who operate various pubs in West Somerset, including the Carew Arms in Crowcombe. New venue Casa Wivey will serve classic Italian dishes, pastries and open ciabattas and will also include a bar specialising in negronis and prosecco. The chic hotel will also boast 16 individually-designed ensuite rooms and co-working space. Sitwell wrote: 'I believe there is a real need and a keen appetite for such an establishment, a convivial, comfortable place of great service, fabulous food and drink and one that can provide a much-needed aspect of hospitality to the area. "Not to mention providing local employment and investment in the supply of local ingredients.' The food writer, editor, broadcaster and critic is the former editor of Waitrose Food. He has also appeared on a number of TV shows including Britain's Best Dish and Michelin Stars: The Madness of Perfection. Sitwell left the editorship of Waitrose Food magazine in 2018 after mocking vegans. In an email to a freelance journalist, he suggested a piece should be written exposing vegans 'hypocrisy' and joking they should be force-fed meat. He immediately apologised, but stepped down with immediate effect regardless. 4 The former establishment will be transformed into a chic hotel Credit: Google
