PBI Awards: Best Thing to Happen to Summer

Best Thing to Happen to Summer

Blueberry-Lemonade Martini

The summer found us chilling in a coastal surf shack, blueberry-lemonade martini in one hand, gluten-free ahi tacos in the other. Were we in California or Costa Rica? Nope. This idyllic scene unfolded in our own backyard as Palm Beach favorite PB Catch shed its glamorous image and slipped into something more comfortable. For his genius Summer Shack pop-up, owner Thierry Beaud reimagined the lounge area into a shabby-chic beach house—wood siding, painted shutters, surfboards, and all. But the real story was Aaron Black’s surf-inspired menu. There’s nothing like grilled Blue Point oysters or a shrimp po’ boy to put you in a summer mood. And while we love PB Catch’s sleek year-round concept, we have to confess to a certain longing for that May-to-September romance.
