Globetrotting journalist Kimi Matar, who used to write the Honolulu Social Diary, but now spends much of her time in our Eden by the Beach, did double duty at the Rosewood Miramar’s charming Manor bar when she combined her birthday celebration with Epicurean Santa Barbara’s Wine Down Wednesday.
Oenophiles and gourmands were out in force for the two-hour foodie fest, which also featured Margerum Sybarite Sauvignon Blanc 2017, Whispering Angels Rose, Cotes de Provence 2017, and Piedrassi ‘PS’ Syrah, Santa Barbara County 2017.
Amy Robinson, wife of ESB co-founder Keith Robinson, played Happy Birthday on the bar’s Bosendorfer grand piano as the gathered throng, including Corinna Gordon and Deborah Bertling, serenaded Kimi.
