The former home of Melbourne city hospitality icon Izakaya Den is set for a new chapter, with its lease to a new venue headlining a raft of deals as hospitality operators continue to reenergise the Melbourne CBD. Fitzroys’ Franklin Gikas and James Lockwood negotiated the lease of Basement 3, 114 Russell Street, which for 15 years was home to the famous Japanese venue Izakaya Den. It will become a new high-end Japanese restaurant and bar Miyazaki Gyu, specialising in Wagyu beef, open from 12pm until late, after being leased to an operator who has been in the hospitality business for, synergistically, 15 years. https://lnkd.in/gge9n73u #Fitzroys #RealEstate #Restaurant #PropertyNews

Bangkok is truly mesmerizing, and there are so many ways to experience Thai culture, history, dining and shopping here. But there's no need to be overwhelmed when you have a local, private guide and driver to show you around, as one Forbes contributor learned on a recent trip.  "Kensington Tours put together all of our guided experiences in Bangkok—and they were among our favorite parts of the trip. Drivers were always early for pickups, especially important when trying to dodge the morning traffic and get out of town for the floating markets shopping experience."

The $1 billion transformation of Pier Sixty-Six in Fort Lauderdale has officially redefined the city’s luxury waterfront landscape. As part of this major redevelopment, Gardiner & Theobald Inc. provided full project and cost management services, ensuring the successful completion of a 325-room resort, a superyacht marina, exclusive residences, and a vibrant collection of dining, retail, and event spaces.   Working alongside Tavistock Development Company and CoralTree Hospitality, we navigated the complexities of this large-scale revitalization, which includes more than 40,000 square feet of event venues and a carefully curated selection of restaurants and lounges.

**Seating on the Floor Dining Option: A Local Experience in Malaysia and ASEAN** Seating on the floor while dining is a traditional practice in Malaysia and other ASEAN countries, offering a unique and immersive way to enjoy meals. Different regions have their own names for this seating style, such as "moguntoungis" in Sabah. Typically, men sit with their legs crossed, while women sit with their legs folded to one side in a more feminine manner. To enhance comfort, each person is provided with a triangular cushion. This dining experience is truly remarkable, allowing guests to savor local cuisine in an authentic setting. The ambiance, enriched by traditional decor and staff dressed in local attire, significantly enhances the overall dining experience. This form of dining is a perfect example of experiential tourism, which aims to immerse travelers in the local culture and create meaningful, authentic experiences. #LocalDining #FloorSeating #MalaysianCuisine #ASEANExperience #TraditionalDining #CulturalImmersion #AuthenticExperience #ExperientialTourism #LocalAmbiance #DiningOnTheFloor

During my recent visit to Lisbon, I realized how gastronomy is at the heart of the hotel experience. More than just a service, hotel restaurants and "cafés" are becoming true showcases, attracting a clientele far beyond hotel guests. For example : 📍At Locke Hotels Santa Joana, Café Castro's welcomes both travelers and locals in a super stylish ambiance. Guests can enjoy a coffee in the lobby, right next to the reception, becoming part of a lively social hub. 📍At Inspira Immersive Boutique Hotels, the restaurant is the first thing guests see upon entering, reinforcing the brand’s identity through a culinary experience that immediately immerses them in the hotel’s concept. With separate entrances offering more direct access, these restaurants play a key role in promoting hotels’ identity and values. 🍽️ This makes the choice of restaurant concept a crucial decision. Not just for branding, but also for influencing the guest journey. A thoughtfully designed dining experience creates a strong emotional connection, transforming the hotel into a destination in itself. ☘️ For hotels, it's a way to enhance their appeal. For restaurateurs, it's a powerful visibility tool. This co-branding model allows both brands to leverage cross-communication, attracting both travelers and locals. 💡 With this in mind, I can’t help asking: Could gastronomy be the key differentiator for the hotels? #Hospitality #Dining #CoBranding #GuestExperience #Lisbon
