Phuc You Cancer: Mi Chini x Breast Cancer Awareness Night
On Friday, October 3, 2025, Phuc Yea and Mi Chini Cocktail Lounge will host a powerful community event: “Phuc You Cancer” – a night of cocktails, resilience, and fundraising in honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month.
This evening is deeply personal. Chef Cesar Zapata, co-founder of Phuc Yea (recognized as one of the Best Vietnamese Restaurants in Miami and consistently ranked among the Top 100 Restaurants in Miami), is paying tribute to his sister, a three-time breast cancer survivor preparing for her next surgery this October. Inspired by her strength, Chef Cesar and the Mad Phucs Hospitality team created an event that blends great food, great drinks, and great purpose.
The night will also honor Natalia Diaz Weissman, Miami entrepreneur, advocate, and fellow three-time survivor, whose story of resilience and advocacy continues to inspire women across the city.

Why It Matters
According to the American Cancer Society, breast cancer affects 2.3 million women worldwide every year. While research is critical, so is direct patient support. That’s why 100% of net ticket sales will be converted into gift cards for under-resourced cancer patients to help cover treatment essentials like skincare, comfort items, meals, and transportation.
This event isn’t just about raising funds—it’s about raising hope, awareness, and community spirit. Whether you’re here for the food, the drinks, or the cause, every moment matters.
Come for the Vibe, Stay for the Cause
Phuc Yea has long been known as a pioneer in Miami’s culinary scene, celebrated for its modern Vietnamese cuisine, vibrant atmosphere, and dedication to community. With its Michelin Bib Gourmand recognition, Top 100 Restaurants in Miami accolades, and reputation as one of the Best Vietnamese restaurants in Miami, Phuc Yea is more than just a dining destination—it’s a gathering place.
On October 3, that gathering place will be filled with survivors, supporters, and friends raising a glass for a future with more answers, more resources, and more survivors.
