Read our guide on finding the ideal Executive Chef for your resort – uncover the key traits that ensure culinary excellence!

Do chefs or restaurants get The MICHELIN Guide stars? Do Michelin stars transfer with chefs to new restaurants if they leave, and do restaurants lose stars if a new chef takes over? They're all valid questions and there's often confusion over the right answers.

In her Bloomberg article, "A Chef Weighs In On What The Bear Gets Wrong in Third Season", our co-founder and Chief Brand Officer Chef Katie Button speaks about how the high intensity nature of the restaurant industry does not have to translate into a nightmare culture. It is our constant focus to provide a positive experience for everyone who comes through our doors, guests and employees alike. As Katie mentions, hospitality represents the first job for so many people and it is on us to create a culture that puts people first, regardless of what side of the table they are on. https://lnkd.in/eKFAMAtt

I am jumping on The Bear train. The Bear is a remarkable show. It truly gives you a look into the food industry and what goes behind creating a fine dining experience. The show also has amazing character development and is a window into the human condition. To create a mind-blowing fine dining experience you need: -A creative chef. A mastermind behind the operation. -High quality ingredients & balance between the different components. -A loyal band of line cooks (Read Kitchen Confidential by Anthony Bourdain) -An extreme high level of hospitality (Read Unreasonable Hospitality by Will Guidara). You miss one of these and it could ruin the experience. When you get to live this you realize that the price can be irrelevant as the experience has provided value. I see parallels between a fine dining experience and a well crafted integrated plan. -You need a team of professionals who coordinate and orchestrate the operation just a like a chef. -You need high quality and simple ingredients to build a portfolio. -You need a team behind to help you execute the plan and keep the operation running. -You need a high level of hospitality. Every interaction with a client should aim to clarify, inspire confidence, and demonstrate value. #food #financialplanning #advice #clientexperience P.s a fine dining experience does not have to cost a fortune. I personally like laid back restaurants with a casual vibe. the type where you can go with jeans and a t-shirt. Here's my unsolicited list of recommendations: -Montreal Plaza. Charles-Antoine Crete is a true creative genius. -Mastard. Chef Simon Mathys has truly created an affordable fine dining experience and trust me it does not disappoint. -Beba. Ari & Pablo Schor have created one of the coziest and nicest experiences in the city.

Resort operations are designed to offer curated experiences of the highest quality. We must always remember that in a service experience, everyone involved creates equal value. Everyone contributes to preparing and maintaining the perfect environment for guests to experience the product or resort, from the cleaner to the GM. As Rory Sutherland often reminds us, the Michelin-starred chef may use the most expensive ingredients to prepare an exquisite meal, but if the restaurant smells of sewer, the person who can create the most value for that restaurant in that situation is the guy cleaning the floor and the toilets—not the glorious chef. #teamwork #everyonematters #valuecreation #resortoperations

🍴 A Dash of History: The Birth of the Brigade System 🍽️ Ever wonder how restaurant kitchens operate so smoothly under pressure? Thank the Brigade System, a revolutionary kitchen organization method devised by the legendary French chef Georges Auguste Escoffier in the early 20th century. This system divides the kitchen into specialized stations or "brigades," each led by a station chef, ensuring efficiency, speed, and culinary excellence. 🔥 Culinary Efficiency Redefined - From the saucier to the patissier, each member plays a crucial role, akin to a well-oiled machine. 👨🍳 Legacy of a Legend - Escoffier's innovation transformed chaotic kitchens into orchestras of gastronomy, influencing how restaurants operate worldwide to this day. This slice of culinary history not only highlights the importance of teamwork but also the enduring impact of a single visionary on the global dining experience. #CulinaryHistory #BrigadeSystem #EscoffierLegacy #KitchenInnovation

In his (must read) book 'Never Eat Alone', Executive Team Coach and Bestselling Author Keith Ferrazzi unveils his notorious networking skills and shows a refreshing perspective about meaningful connections based on value creation. A few points of the book that stood out to me: - Success in Life = (The people you meet) + (What you create together) - When connecting with people, always lead with generosity. What can you genuinely offer to them that will make their lives better? Reciprocity is a natural outturn. - Pay attention to the super-connectors. They are people with innate abilities to be open, extra attentive, and immediately connect someone they met to other people they see purpose and fit. Jayme Sherwood, CFSP is one of these super-connectors. I met her by chance at the 2021 KBIS, and since day one she gobsmacked me with her generosity in connecting me with other business or personal contacts who later impacted my life positively, always with an uplifting mood and authenticity. Like Mr. Ferrazzi, we also love connecting around food! ;-) How about you? Waldorf Astoria Beverly Hills, always a singular experience. Jayme - merci, ma belle! #connectionsthatmatter #nevereatalone #networking #friendship #branding #partnerships #relationshipmarketing
