We built three ways in.

Private dining for the table that matters. Experiential catering for the event that lasts. Cultural pop-ups for the community that shows up.

Every offering starts with the same question: what does this moment need to feel real?

That is the work.

You know the people at this table.
We have broken bread with On Running, Brooklyn Nets, and Bloomingdale’s. We move alongside Ghetto Gastro, Hot Bread Kitchen, La Cocina, and Daybreaker.
Not because we chased proximity. Because we belong to the same world.
A world where food is art. Where the table is a platform. Where culture and commerce are not opposites.
That is Mi Zã Plaz.

The table has always been where culture lives.

We built Mi Zã Plaz for the ones who know food is never just food. It is memory. It is identity. It is the room before the room.

Private dining. Experiential catering. Cultural events built from the inside out.

This is where you eat. This is where you belong.

Mangrove Culinary Archives Vol. 01: Coconut

From Coconut Wata to Table.

Some of our greatest culinary treasures aren’t found in cookbooks. They’re carried through generations, preserved through lived experiences, shared traditions and the people within our communities.

For our inaugural volume, we gathered around one familiar ingredient, the coconut, to explore its versatility, cultural significance and the stories connected to it.

At the center of our evening was Roderick, a longtime coconut legacy vendor at Flatbush & Caton, whose knowledge and experiences guided us through an evening of conversation, culinary exploration and a shared meal.

Curated and led by @sirpreme The Artist Formerly Known as Chef (Chef Love) of @mi_za_plaz

the evening brought together thoughtful culinary expressions and something far greater than the food itself.

The preservation of our stories, our traditions and the people who carry them.

Because food is more than sustenance. It’s history, identity, memory and connection.

This is the Mangrove Culinary Archives. A living collection of the culinary knowledge and foodways that make our communities who we are.

One ingredient. Countless stories. A living archive.

Vol. 01 is just the beginning.

We are honored to welcome Leon Anthony Jardine — “The Artist Formerly Known as Chef” — as an Honorary Founding Member of Fashion Forward.

Culinary + Lifestyle Director, Mi Zã Plaz

For Leon, food has never simply been about the plate.

It is a language.

A way to tell stories about migration, identity, memory, community, music, fashion, art and culture.

Through Mi Zã Plaz, Leon creates experiences rooted in the global Diaspora — bringing together food, hospitality, storytelling and creative expression through what he calls Diasporas Cuisine.

His philosophy is simple and powerful:

Food is the medium, not the destination.

And that is exactly why his voice belongs in the House.

Fashion is shaped by far more than clothing.

It is shaped by what we eat.
What we listen to.
How we gather.
What we remember.
What we create.
And the cultures we carry with us.

Welcome to Fashion Forward, Leon. 🤍

The Future of Fashion is Shaped Through Culture.

A Culinary Artist, creates at Mi Zã Plaz is not served. It is offered.

Each dish carries the weight of a decision, about ingredient, about technique, about what this moment in front of this person deserves. That is what separates food from art. Not the price. Not the plating. The intention behind every choice made before the plate ever leaves the kitchen.

This is a collection of that work.

“I call this work art. Not to elevate myself above anything. But to honor the craft. And the extraordinary people with extraordinary minds who deserve to feel what food can actually be.”

-A Culinary Artist

Mi Zã Plaz Presents: A Lil’ Culinary Flex.

We lit the torch. Set the vibe. Fed the tribe.
From crispy char to candlelight charm, this was more than dinner — it was a whole situation.
S/O to the hands that plated, the hearts that gathered, and the flavors that danced.

An Evening to Remember ✨🍴🌸

A true fusion of flavor, lifestyle, and design — crafted with care & intention by the Mi Zã Plaz Culinary & Lifestyle team.

We were asked to Imagine an all-black charcuterie board that’s a study in luxurious minimalism and moody elegance.♣️♣️♣️
@hermes

This detailed setup draws inspiration from current trends in moody charcuterie presentation, where designers play with deep hues and refined textures to create a board that is as visually arresting as it is delicious. The overall effect is both mysterious and sophisticated.
