What BHS restaurant and dish do you love the most?

Tina Stuck: This one took me a minute because I’ve never eaten anywhere in BHS that I didn’t like. I’m obsessed with the Spicy Tuna Crispy Rice at Makoto. The people watching at Carpaccio is unparalleled and their salads are amazing. And the French Onion Soup at Le Zoo is a must-have—I could never go there without ordering it!

TS: I love Intermix, it has always been one of my go to spots for years; it never lets me down, I always find something I need (want) in there!

What does Celebrating Love mean to you?

TS: It means showing appreciation and kindness to your significant other and your friends. Giving or sharing something sweet and expressing to them how much they truly mean to you.

What BHS restaurant and dish do you love the most?

Carol Scaff: It’s so hard to choose, because I have more than one favorite dish at each restaurant… and a “love story” with all of them…

But if I have to choose, for me it’s Makoto, with the Kani salad and Truffle Ponzu Salmon to start, and as my main course, the Miso Sea Bass is a must-have!

What BHS boutique/brand do you love the most?

CS: My favorite is Missoni. I am in love with their patterns and bright unique colors… You feel a great vibe when you are wearing the brand! I believe in fashion when it brings out the best in you!

What does Celebrating Love mean to you?

CS: It means everything; all we need is love! If we look to life through the eyes of love, everything is that much more beautiful and divine. More love always, please!

Melissa Marerro: I love Le Zoo because it makes you feel like you’re walking into a restaurant in France. I highly recommend getting the Steak Frites. The steak is cooked to perfection and the fries couldn’t be any crispier. And don’t forget about dessert; the Profiteroles are the way to go!
