Prata Journey and Teh Tarik tea pulling is always one of the highlights of my time in Singapore. Not only because it’s tasty, messy, educational and certainly fun. Not only because it’s run by a dear friend who features in Singapore book of records. But because: 1. I love her story of how she reinvented herself over and over again. How she who does not, even cannot cook ran a great restaurant with the best chilli crab recipe in town and now brings high end food dining and service to hawker centre style experience. 2. The Prata Journey and learning how to flip roti, makes me think about how sometimes one does not need a lot of expensive ingredients to create something special in life. 3. The things that look simple and common can actually be rather difficult and complex, the things that we take for granted sometimes take a real skill to create. #storyofcourage #reinvention #wisdomleadership

Hong Kong's bartending scene has gained more recognition recently, now rivaling the longstanding reputation of restaurants and chefs both locally and across Asia. Bartenders today are focusing more on their personality, creativity, and storytelling as they pour drinks across the city. Unlike chefs who follow strict rules, bartenders in Hong Kong are taking a more artistic approach, using their drinks to express themselves and connect with customers. John Ng, the chair of Asia's 50 Best Bars academy, notes that personality in bartending in Asia has become truly key, with bartenders gaining fame and noteriety for their craft, much like tattoo artists or pop stars. Famous bartenders like Lorenzo Antinori and Antonio Lai have become well-known names, with their personalities boosting the success of their bars. Lorenzo’s rise to the top of Asia’s 50 Best Bars in 2024 shows just how much influence bartenders are gaining in the region. However, both Lorenzo and Antonio admit that bartenders still face challenges compared to chefs, who often get bigger budgets and more prestigious awards. On the other hand, Jay Khan, from COA, says bartenders don’t need to compete with chefs; he thinks that a bartender's craft is unique, and it’s about setting their own standards among the industry.

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

It's useless to focus on a Modern Target Occasion if you are not relevant in a Traditional One. Example: Be relevant as an Aperitivo in an Italian Restaurant (Traditional) before venturing into a Fancy Cocktail Bar (Modern). If you build it on Italian credentials and you are not relevant for Italians, you're off the wrong foot. Same with any other nationality. I discussed this with Brian Rosen in Ep. 029. Listen to it here: https://tr.ee/ZTsHj50ex6
