Since starting the blog, we’ve interviewed many members of the hospitality industry, and one constant among the interviewees has been a profound love for their pets. We thought it would be great to share this love with our readers.

That’s why we launched an ongoing feature called “Wag Wednesday” to showcase industry peeps and their pets. Know someone who wants to be featured? Email us at bark@miamifoodpug.com.

This week, we’re featuring Jourdan Binder, Creative Director of The Anderson, and his dogs, Ryder and Kahlua.

Every few months, the Pinch Kitchen team hosts a collaboration dinner with some of South Florida’s culinary giants. On January 30, the fifth installment of the Craft Collab series featured Chef Niven Patel of Ghee Indian Kitchen, which is set to open in Downtown Dadeland later this year.

The family-style affair served as a sneak peek of Chef Patel’s new eatery and put three of Miami’s top chefs under one roof. Together with Chef Patel, Pinch’s John Gallo and Rene Reyes cooked up a multi-course masterpiece of a menu that left us even more excited for Ghee Indian Kitchen and the future of this dinner series.

Orange-Chocolate Soufflé from PINCH Kitchen in El Portal

Taz is an 8-year-old sweetheart of a boy needing a new forever home! He was very loved by his previous family, but they didn’t have the time they felt he deserved. So they did what was best for him and are letting CPR find him a family who can spend lots of time with him! He is totally house trained, loves to be around people, is great with kids and other dogs, and has SO much unconditional love to give! He does have limited vision and is on daily eye drops.

Let my CPR know if he would be a perfect fit for you by filling out an adoption application at www.compassionatepugrescue.com.

#FindMeAHomeFriday is a campaign by Compassionate Pug Rescue and Miami Food Pug to help South Florida pugs find a forever home. Each Friday this month, we will be photoshopping a rescue pug available for adoption into an MFP food picture. For more details on the original campaign, visit the campaign page.
