Rihanna and A$AP

Rocky managed to have a private dinner in South Beach on Wednesday.

Insiders tell Miami.com the music stars took over Michelin-starred Stubborn Seed to kick off Art Basel Miami Beach.

OK, so the couple — who welcomed a baby boy in May — wasn’t completely solo. A few pals tagged along, and head chef Jeremy Ford came out of the kitchen to chat.

On his Instagram, the “Top Chef” alum posted selfies with both entertaine­rs, with the new mom looking amazing in a cream camisole, cargo pants and chunky jewelry.

“Well, that was cool. Honored to have @asaprocky & @badgalriri dine with us,” Ford wrote.

So what was served to these famous folks? Aww, that wasn’t divulged. But the restaurant’s tastingonl­y menu features such interestin­g, eclectic dishes as Florida shrimp and saffron gnocchi with squid ink; pan roasted truffle chicken with pomme purée, Brussels sprouts and baby turnips; and charred swordfish with baby artichoke in a umami broth.

The Washington Avenue eatery is “the result of pairing unrelentin­g passion with an unapologet­ic approach. It aims to unearth cravings of the palate while constructi­ng a reward in each bite. This philosophy takes honest ingredient­s and elevates them,” reads the website.

Next up for these two: Rihanna is prepping to headline the Super Bowl LVII halftime show in

Glendale, Arizona, on Feb. 12.

As for Rocky, the NYC native is getting super domesticat­ed, working on a new home decor line Hommemade.

Perhaps he’s at Basel for some creative inspo? We do know the 34-year-old hitmaker hasn’t given up the whole singing thing. The next night, the “Fashion Killa” singer put on a show at STORY in Miami Beach. Ri-Ri came out to support her man in a silver bedazzled pantsuit and sunglasses at night as the crowd parted, we were told.

“Rihanna’s arrival prior to his performanc­e was anything but subtle as hundreds turned out to catch a glimpse of the new mom as she entered the venue,” a spy told us.
