Monika NguyenIn Vienna you have Street Lofts. The Urbanauts project turned abandoned stores in design hotel rooms for adventurers. You can sleep in a spacious and comfortable Street Loft where the history of the former shop is still visible. Explore Vienna from your loft. Check in via a key-safe and for breakfast, spa or dinner they have made arrangements with the neighbors of the loft (nearest breakfast cafe etc …) The brainchild of a group of local architects.
Rooftop bars, restaurants and swimming pools have been popular for a quite some years. The website Trendhunter.com recently published a related luxury at the rooftop; a luxury hotel in a ski resort with a hot tub at their rooftop. The hot tub at the L’Apogée Courchevel Luxury Ski Chalet is impressive, especially the view.
A new version of ‘Envyted by Michael Wolf’ will take place on April 7th and 8th. Chef cook Michael Wolf of restaurant Envy in Amsterdam invited two star Michelin chef Edwin Vinke of restaurant ‘De Kromme Watergang’ to prepare an exclusive five-course lunch and eight-course dinner. Edwin Vinke is one of the most talented chefs at this moment and for his restaurant he grows his own vegetables and herbs on a piece of land in Zeeland. During ‘Envyted’ the salty and earthy flavors of restaurant ‘De Kromme Watergang’ will be combined with a number of Michael Wolf’s favorite dishes.
How will we order our pizza in the future? Perhaps by creating your own pizza through a touchscreen table. The Pizza Hut collaborated with Chaotic Moon Studios and they launched a movie about an interactive concept table that could be the future of the Pizza Hut ordering and dining process.
Food Film Festival (FFF) organizes a lunch + movie, themed ‘Proefwerk’ on Friday May 9th. Proefwerk was the heading of the famous culinary critic Johannes van Dam for the newspaper Het Parool. FFF brought three of his favorite chefs from Amsterdam together, all assed with a 9,5 or higher, to prepare a lunch. Chefs Iwan Driessen of Rijsel, Richard van Oostenbrugge of Bord’Eau and Michiel van Eerde of Bault will prepare a unique lunch together. The lunch is served in the pop-up restaurant of FFF at the Westergasfabriek (Amsterdam). By buying a golden ticket you support the FFF pop-up restaurant. The golden tickets cost € 80,= per person and are available via the site. The first golden tickets were sold last week for a lunch + movie by the Pourcel brothers (and still available!).
Scott Wiener, a NYC-based pizza aficionado, has judged the VENTiT, a different pizza box as the world’s best. He is the Guinness World Record holder in collecting pizza boxes, so he should know. With VENTiT, Vinay Mehta created a revolutionary new box, that puts a stop to steam getting trapped within the pizza box, creating a soggy mess. The video explains it all. Vinay Mehta has a patent on the box an is planning to produce and distribute the VENTiY boxes with international partners.
#Throwback Thursday. We started in August 2007 with horecatrends.com / hospitalitytrends.eu, one of the first trends we did post was about running tours in New York, Washington DC and Chicago, where you could run through the city with a guide along historic and tourist attractions. The guide supports the runnin and gives historical and tourist information. Meanwhile, the organization City Running Tours is located in 13 U.S. cities among them Boston, San Francisco, Denver and San Diego. #isstillagoodidea
BrusselKale is a brand new vegetable that’s a cross between two ‘super foods’, Brussels sprouts and kale. BrusselKale has a flavor that’s milder than either Brussels sprouts or kale and contains double the amount of vitamin B6 and vitamin C of Brussels sprouts. ‘BrusselKale’ is a registered trademark of Rock Garden, USA. For an extensive taste report, read the article at The Kitchn. I wonder when we can taste it here in Europe?
At VanChefs it is possible to book a private cook, but next week they organize a special chef’s tour in Amsterdam. The day starts with a morning coffee at Jos Timmer (@ Frankendael, restaurant Merkelbach), then continues at brunch place ‘staring at Jacob’ Noah Tucker Anthony & Joseph, and Joris Bijdendijk (restaurant Bridges *) to turn him inside out with questions. The final element in the tour is a dessert demo by Edwin Sander Food Creativ (Talent of the Year) in the Rockstart Ballroom. The tour is designed for talented chefs and ultimate foodies. It lasts Friday 14 March from 9:30 to 14:00 o’clock.
After a cat café in Japan and London it seems that San Francisco is ready for a cat café as well. There the crowdfunding campaign started for ‘KitTea’. Watch the video.
