Cannabis in the Netherlands | impact on the hospitality industry
28-9-2016
Extensively in the news last week, the legal production of cannabis. Is the legalization of the production finally happening after years of tolerating? And does this mean that on the long term the use will be legal as well? What does this mean for the hospitality industry? In any case, the use of cannabis will be trendy for a while and new cannabis products will appear on the market. We looked at what restaurants and other producers in America have created around cannabis since it has been legalized for some time now in various states. Below a list with examples of “the impact of cannabis on the hospitality industry.”

27-9-2016
Latte art to perfection, cappuccino served in a cone! Dayne Levinrad works at The Grind Coffee Company in Johannesburg (South Africa). He developed one of the Instagram trends of the moment: coffee in a cone. We already wrote about it in our ‘trends we spotted this week (21)‘ but when we made a round-up of all the ice-cream trends we spotted this summer we thought this trend deserved its own article.

Marathon du Medoc | the marathon for foodies!
19-9-2016
The 10th of September the Marathon du Medoc took place in the Medoc, near Bordeaux, France. We heard about this Marathon years ago, from that moment on (it must have been more than 20 years ago) I challenged my colleagues to run this French marathon. At that time they were not able yet to run in New York, Paris or London but choose another marathon destination. By now most of them are be able to say: London, been there, New York, done that. Check out the impression restaurant Le Saint Julien made of the marathon this year. I will be watching and toasting wine with the colleagues that do the run, this is the only marathon where you can pull a cork and a muscle.
The rainbow food trend in latte art
8-9-2016
We’re following a couple USA based trend websites and they’re all showing the rainbow food trend. Because we’re not particular fond of the food colouring business, we never wrote about all those normal everyday foods that are popping up in rainbow colours. But although we don’t fancy drinking it, we have to admit some people are making great colourful latte art. We wonder when we’re going to get our first colourful coffee latte!
Frosé or frozen rosé
6-9-2016
Frosé took the USA by storm this summer. The alcoholic treat was served in New York, New Orleans, and Washington, DC. Frosé will disappear from most menus once fall comes, but it will reappear for the slush-loving hearts next summer. We hope it will appear in the Netherlands as well, we love to try it!
