A Speakeasy Surprise in Fort Lauderdale

The Hyatt Centric Las Olas Hotel offers a secret hideaway from those that seek to escape the hustle and bustle of the city.

Fans of unique cocktails are in for a treat at RM. 901, a classy and hidden away speakeasy at the Hyatt Centric Las Olas Hotel. A dimly lit treasure, it’s the perfect spot for a date when looking for an upscale hotel bar experience.

Visiting RM. 901 is an experience on its own, one that offers a secret hideaway from those that seek to escape the hustle and bustle of the city. Reservations are necessary. Once you arrive at the hotel, you must visit the front desk and provide the secret code, one that gains you access to the secretive spot.

While everything seems normal as you get on the elevator leading you to the ninth floor of the Hyatt Centric Las Olas Hotel, there’s nothing less than special about the experience. Once you find the secluded spot, you will swipe the key that was provided, and find yourself immediately inside a paradise for those who appreciate a vintage vibe and drinks that are nothing short of extraordinary.

RM. 901 is a place where the lights are down, the seats are plush, and the service is extremely personal, as your own mixologist explores your needs and wants when it comes to drinks. The menu offers newly classic cocktails such as the Smoke & Mirrors, a perfectly mixed and bacon-infused Old Forester drink, and the always classic Penecillin, featuring Monkey Shoulder whiskey with the perfect dashes of fresh lemon juice, honey ginger syrup and Glenfiddich 12-year-old.

The food menu is also a delight, featuring a delicious meat and cheese charcuterie plater and some heavier dishes such as Caribbean Spiced Lamb Lollipops and Wagyu Steak Katsu Sando. The bites and dishes are made fresh and brought to you upstairs, and they are the perfect way to complete your evening and make it a delicious and upscale gastronomical experience as well. Not only that, but you can get competitive with your date or friend, as the bar offers table games such as cards and dominoes.

RM. 901 is decorated in plush red velvet, vintage lamps and framed images, and the music are classic songs from the 50s and 60s. The spot offers just a few cozy tables and reservations must be made in advance for this luxurious experience, one that you will never forget and want to visit again.

Editor-in-Chief

BIOGRAPHY

Drew Limsky joined Lifestyle Media Group in August 2020 as Editor-in-Chief of South Florida Business & Wealth. His first issue of SFBW, October 2020, heralded a reimagined structure, with new content categories and a slew of fresh visual themes. “As sort of a cross between Forbes and Robb Report, with a dash of GQ and Vogue,” Limsky says, “SFBW reflects South Florida’s increasingly sophisticated and dynamic business and cultural landscape.”

Limsky, an avid traveler, swimmer and film buff who holds a law degree and Ph.D. from New York University, likes to say, “I’m a doctor, but I can’t operate—except on your brand.” He wrote his dissertation on the nonfiction work of Joan Didion. Prior to that, Limsky received his B.A. in English, summa cum laude, from Emory University and earned his M.A. in literature at American University in connection with a Masters Scholar Award fellowship.

Limsky came to SFBW at the apex of a storied career in journalism and publishing that includes six previous lead editorial roles, including for some of the world’s best-known brands. He served as global editor-in-chief of Lexus magazine, founding editor-in-chief of custom lifestyle magazines for Cadillac and Holland America Line, and was the founding editor-in-chief of Modern Luxury Interiors South Florida. He also was the executive editor for B2B magazines for Acura and Honda Financial Services, and he served as travel editor for Conde Nast. Magazines under Limsky’s editorship have garnered more than 75 industry awards.

He has also written for many of the country’s top newspapers and magazines, including The New York Times, Washington Post, Los Angeles Times, Miami Herald, Boston Globe, USA Today, Worth, Robb Report, Afar, Time Out New York, National Geographic Traveler, Men’s Journal, Ritz-Carlton, Elite Traveler, Florida Design, Metropolis and Architectural Digest Mexico. His other clients have included Four Seasons, Acqualina Resort & Residences, Yahoo!, American Airlines, Wynn, Douglas Elliman and Corcoran. As an adjunct assistant professor, Limsky has taught journalism, film and creative writing at the City University of New York, Pace University, American University and other colleges.
