Another list with special hotels this time by SweetyDesign. They show hotels with photos of their interior. We already know a couple of them from lists in the past but it included a few new hotels. Like the Boat Hotel in New Zealand and the Anantara hotel in the Golden Triangle in Thailand. The photos are from the Museumotel (spotted in 2006) in France. Each bubble has its own decor. The room in the picture should do well for Valentine’s night!
Tasting menus give people the chance to sample each delicacy the restaurant offers. With three or four dishes the chef simply can’t present his entire range of skills. The 5 most expensive tasting menu’s of America:
1. Masa***, New York City. $1160 for 2 persons
2. Joël Robuchon***, Las Vegas. $1115 for 2 persons
3. Meadwood**, St. Helena. $1080 for 2 persons
4. Ursasawa**, Los Angeles. $967 for 2 persons
5. Guy Savay**, Las Vegas. $ 891 for 2 persons
Once every ten days ‘The Pinnacle Grill’ restaurant at the luxury cruise ship MS Rotterdam will be turned into ‘The Librije’. The staff is trained in the Librije in Zwolle (The Netherlands) and is dressed in the same clothing as their collegues in the 3-Michelin stars restaurant. The wine is selected by Thérèse Boer and the five-course menu consists of signature dishes by Jonnie Boer.
The new lobster and fish restaurant ‘The Lobster House + Studio’ opens its doors on the Frederiksplein in Amsterdam. You can go there for a dinner with oysters or lobsters but also for fresh sandwiches, salades and pasta with fish. The restaurant is located in an old parking garage. That gifs it an industrial look and feel. Look at the website for the menu.
Gastronomic safaris by boat, walks in Nordic Noir Copenhagen, concerts in warehouses and pop-up restaurants. All this during the Wondercool festival – Copenhagen’s cultural month of February. It’s a festival of music, art, food, design, architecture and fashion.
At Whichaway Eco Camp explorers get the chance to experience the Antarctic comfortably, and sustainable. Guests can stay the overnight in one of six tents. The tents look like oversized golf balls. The frameless structures are made of aerospace composite panels that slot together to have the strength of a normal building and the mobility of a tent. Each tent has an en-suite bathroom and a desk. The camp consists of two more tents where you’ll find the dining area, library, kitchen and communications area. See more pictures in the Daily Mail article and a video about a trip to Whichaway Eco Camp.
In the Belgian city Ghent, an interesting partnership started between the municipality and De Koninck beer brewery. The company De Lijn which provides public transport in Ghent, had to cancel the night services due to budget cuts. But due to the collaboration at the municipality and the brewery, the buses will still drive during the night. There will be no major changes for the passengers, only the look of the buses change. The timetable and tickets will remain the same.
Albert Heijn introduces a brand new service; ‘Albert Heijn Pick Up Point’. Customers order their groceries at AlbertHeijn.nl. The supermarket does the shopping for them and the next day they receive a sms to confirm the order and pick-up location. The service is free and the first Pick Up Point opened in Heemstede. Albert Heijn wants to expand the service, which is already offered in Naarden and Tilburg.
A new modern portable, stainless fireplace for outside. It is made to withstand high temperatures and outdoor elements. The fireplace requires no electricity and produces no smoke. It can be fully personalized, so let guests cut their own spices for example or just use it as nice decoration.
