      Modo Mio is a place of moments. Since 1985, we have been serving both quality interpretations of classic Northern Italian dishes. Northern Italian cuisine is characterized by a lesser use of sauces and overall a lighter and healthier style of cooking. Northern Italian main courses often reflect people's pride in their unspoiled countryside and are likely to include a nice variety of meats and poultry. Seafood and shellfish are very popular on the coast. The overall rule is "if it grows or lives well in the area, then it can make it onto the table". From Val d'Aosta and Piemonte to Lombardia, Veneto and Liguria, let us take you on a journey through the flavors of Northern Italy. This gift certificate is for meals only. Not for alcohol, taxes, or gratuity. Seasons 52 is an American fresh grill and wine bar developed in 2003. The brand concept is to deliver a casually sophisticated atmosphere, seasonal menu, and offer fresh ingredients to deliver menu items that are naturally lighter. Escape to Innovative Dining Group’s (IDG) restaurants all over Los Angeles for exceptional cuisine and trendy, seductive environments. Canaletto Ristorante Veneto Newport Beach is an upscale chain for Italian cuisine offers a sleek dining room with wood-beamed ceilings & fireplace. 2012 Jordan Alexander Valley Cabernet Sauvignon -2012 was truly a phenomenal growing season—every winemaker’s dream—which shines through as one of the most complex Jordan Cabernet Sauvignons to date. A long-lived vintage that tastes incredible in magnum now and will continue to reward wine collectors for decades. 2013 Beaulieu Vineyard Georges de Latour Private Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon- The superb 2013 vintage gave the 2013 Georges de Latour Private Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon its unctuous fruit character and dense structure. Hugely complex, the wine reveals a broad spectrum of briary blackberry, black cherry and currant notes, with nuances of violet and bittersweet chocolate. Muscular tannins support the plush, expansive palate, while impeccably balanced acidity adds vibrancy. Integrated caramel and toasted oak spices, from aging in new French oak barrels, heighten the aromas and linger on the finish.

  • Porsche Design Flat Six Automatic Stainless-Steel Men's Watch The Flat Six series derives its name from the six-cylinder Boxer engines which played a major role in establishing the world-wide reputation of the Porsche name. Porsche Design watches go beyond a mere co-branding exercise and instead carry the design DNA and philosophy of the company’s founder, Ferdinand Alexander Porsche. There is no arguing that over its 40+-year history; it has produced some revolutionary, collectible and important watches. To understand Porsche Design watches, you must, as with so many things, go back to its beginnings. In 1963, the Porsche car company introduced its latest model, the 911, at the Frankfurt Auto Show. The car was the successor to the brand’s popular but aging model 356 and featured newer, more minimalist design language, penned by Ferdinand Alexander “Butzi” Porsche, the son of the company’s founder. Of course, we don’t need to remind anyone about the success of the 911 which, along with James Bond films, has endured as a true cultural icon that has evolved but still retains its perfect original form. Form is an important concept to all designers. In 1972, he founded Porsche Design and his first product was a wrist watch. It’s hard to believe that before 1972, there were no black watches, given today’s ubiquity of PVD, DLC and ceramic timepieces. So, when Porsche Design introduced an austere chronograph in a black steel case with black bracelet, it was a sensation. 40+ years later, the watch still looks remarkably contemporary with its utilitarian, almost severe, layout. Specs:
    • Case: Sandblasted/polished circular brushed PVD coated stainless steel case
    • Black Rubber Strap
    • Black PVD bezel with 12-hour scale
    • Black & red dial set with black & luminous hand indicators
    • Silver tone & luminous arabic numeral hour markers
    • Continuously sweeping second hand
    • Date display at the 3 o'clock position
    • Scratch resistant sapphire crystal protects the dial
    • Screw down crown
    • Transparent case back
    • Swiss automatic self-winding movement
    • Sellita calibre SW200-1
    • Porsche Design rotor
    • 21 Jewels
    • 11 1/2 lignes
    • 28,800 A/h
    • 38-hour power reserve
    • Water resistant to 10 ATM/100 meters/330 feet
    This watch will be sent to the winner after the event. Value: $1,100.00 Generously donated by the Change a Life Foundation

  • A vibrant rendition of California Corbina fish by Marianne Champlin, a Laguna Beach artist who works in oil, watercolor and egg tempera.  Ms. Champlin writes: “My art has evolved through several stages, which have generally paralleled my place of residence and travel.  I have lived in California, Texas, Wyoming and Hawaii. The dominate force in my art has been my impression and emotional response to these varied surroundings. My production relies on a technique and approach which springs from a woman’s viewpoint, emotion and the relationship to her surroundings. This is revealed in the subject choice, use of chosen medium, as well as, what is to be communicated to the viewer. I work in oil, watercolor and egg tempera depending on what is to be conveyed.  During my many years in North San Diego county I was able to paint on locations where early California artists worked. I was also very fortunate in my art training to study with advocates of the California style of painting.” Major Achievements:
