Very interesting story about the man who runs the Michelin Guide. As someone who has done restaurant and hotel PR for two decades, I have gone back-and-forth on the overall importance of awards. Do they truly impact the quality of the business itself? Does having a star (or two or three or five, depending on the award) improve the quality of the experience of your guests? What do you think? The most important factoid in this article is this one: "The stars are awarded to the establishment itself, not to a particular dish and not to the chef. A departing cuisinier cannot take their stars with them." So the next time you read a press release referring to the first new restaurant of a hot young "Michelin-starred" chef you'll know it's baloney. #michelinguide #awards #starratings #hospitalitynews #publicrelations https://lnkd.in/eYkvnQMQ

This indicates a significant decline in this particular skill among restaurant staff, which is a missed opportunity for creating a unique dining experience. In one restaurant I was doing training I suggestion to incorporate table-side Caesar salad preparation on a weekly or monthly basis clearly had a significant positive impact on the restaurant. Training the waiters to perform this engaging task not only increased sales but also captured customer interest effectively.

To those that attended one of the first dozen 6sensory Suppers, I need to apologize. I think I delivered a night of reasonable hospitality. What I have learned since, though, is that I should have been delivering a night of unreasonable hospitality. Will Guidara, one of the co-owners of Eleven Madison Park, ranked the #1 restaurant in the world in 2017, wrote my favorite book of the year: Unreasonable Hospitality. I highly recommend the book even if you're not in hospitality. Link to buy it in the comments.
