The creative menu offers a variety of delicious, flavor-filled dishes, including Aubergine Salad, which features roasted eggplant, herb goat cheese, toasted sunflower seeds and fresh plum tomatoes; Mediterranean Mezze, an assortment of hummus, olive tapenade, baba ganoush and tabule with fresh mint served on grilled pita points; Snapper Beurre Blanc in lemon butter served with garlic "smashed" potatoes; and a 14 ounce Filet Mignon served with a burgundy reduction, caramelized pearl onions and parmesan potato gratin.

Other dishes include 48-hour lemon infused Chicken Kabobs in a tzatziki sauce with grilled pita and Scallops Tres Colores - pan seared with crunchy asparagus and fire roasted pepper couli. If you're looking for lighter fare, BREATHE offers a selection of "Beginnings," "Middles" and "Sweet Endings," featuring a Seven Layer Red Velvet Tower with cream cheese frosting with a light dusting of snow (powered sugar). BREATHE offers an extensive wine list and an array of specialty cocktails. Indulge in a Watermelon Sting, Cucumber Punch, Lychee Martini or Mediterranean Mirage.

Adjacent to the main dining room, guests can "exhale" in BREATHE's exotic lounge or treat themselves to a private VIP room where guests will receive the royal treatment with their own butler, bottle service and flat screen TVs. The outside patio features al fresco dining and a true Mediterranean tradition - Hookah - the fastest growing trend in the Mediterranean and Europe. Resident DJs Johnny Ramirez and Dean Michaels keep the energy alive and flowing, turning BREATHE into an after-hours retreat for the late night crowd.

BREATHE is located at 401 W. Atlantic Avenue in Delray Beach and is open for dinner Monday through Thursday from 5-11 p.m. and Friday and Saturday from 5 p.m. - Midnight.

Fashion to the Rescue

The Coco Collection raises money for local animal shelters

Celebrity designer Courtney Cachet and OC-based Hendrick Boards have launched the Coco Collection, a line of apparel and skateboards inspired by Cachet's rescue German Shepherd, Coco, who recently passed away. The new collection will benefit local animal shelters and rescue programs across the nation with each and every purchase. This marks the first time that Hendrick Boards has created a partnership with a designer.

Coco's memory is alive and well with the Coco Collection, where every product gives back to animal shelters and rescues throughout the nation, helping rescues like Coco find loving homes. Purchases of the men's and women's Coco Tee sparks a donation of $6 to local animal shelters; the Coco Long Sleeve triggers a donation of $10; and $15 is donated with purchases of the Coco Skateboard.

The donations made from purchases of the Coco Collection are given to animal nonprofits everywhere, with 75 percent benefiting local animal charities (based upon shipping address) and 25 percent benefiting national nonprofit initiatives.
