If you are searching for something extraordinary—something that feels like an experience rather than just another night out—Wednesdays at Piacere Mio are where you need to be.
This spring, the East Harlem Mexican-Italian trattoria is transforming midweek evenings into a vibrant celebration of culture, cuisine, and world-class wine.
Welcome to Wine All You Want Wednesdays—a groundbreaking series bringing together over 130 Black-owned wineries from across the globe. Each week invites guests to taste, explore, and experience wines that reflect heritage, innovation, and artistry.
These are not simply bottles on a table.
They are stories. Movements. Legacies—poured into a glass.
A Global Stage for Black Winemakers
From Napa Valley to South Africa, from boutique vineyards to internationally celebrated labels, this series places Black excellence in winemaking front and center.
Each participating winery represents a unique voice in an industry where representation is still evolving—making this experience not only indulgent, but meaningful.
Guests will have the rare opportunity to engage directly with featured winemakers—either in person or virtually—hearing firsthand the inspiration, process, and passion behind each pour.
The Culinary Vision of Chef Fausto Mora
Guiding this journey is Chef Fausto Mora, Cuisine Editor for Mood Magazine and the visionary behind Piacere Mio.
With a culinary perspective shaped by his time in Italy and his Afro-Latin heritage, Chef Mora curates pairings that elevate each tasting into a full sensory experience. Every dish is intentional. Every flavor, a bridge between cultures.
The result is not just a meal—it’s a conversation between food and wine, tradition and innovation.
A Multi-Platform Cultural Experience
Wine All You Want Wednesdays extends far beyond the table.
Through integration with:
- Mood Magazine
- Mood TV
- WHRL Mood Radio
- The Morning Show
this series becomes a citywide—and global—platform. Each winery, each story, and each experience is amplified across media, connecting audiences far beyond Harlem.
