writing the recipe for innovative restaurants + bars
Success in this industry doesn’t have an equation.
Restaurants and bars succeed because of a recipe of passion, good luck, market conditions and basil (well, not always basil). The quantity of each isn’t static. They vary from project to project, and doing the hard work to discover the nuance is what gives a place the best chance for success. Design, lighting, art, music, service, branding, style each need to be given weight and scrutiny.

Not POMP! Guests are dining very differently than they did only a decade ago. Spend hasn’t suffered, thankfully, but formality has. Diners and drinkers will go out of their way to find the most authentic, creative and unique experience available. It’s important to create an environment and service style in which guests will feel comfortable AND part of something special.
