Pie per inch

Auberge Saint-Gabriel, with Chef Eric Gonzalez, serves his version of lemon pie per inch. The pie is cut at the table, and tastes delicious.
Baked Alaska
9-8-2011
Although an old-fashioned dessert Baked Alaska remains delicious and we don’t understand why it isn’t served more often! Steakhouse Harbour Sixty in Toronto serves it with all the right ingredients and at the table! At all the tables they served it while we were there, it looked like a small party!

The Rotisserie Channel by Swiss Chalet
8-8-2011
BBDO Canada has launched a campaign for Swiss Chalet in february. Swiss Chalet is known in Canada for their roasted chicken. They started a The Rotisserie channel, where one can watch rottisserie chicken 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. The mere announcement created a lot of free publicity, it was broadcasted in several newsshows, they were trending topic on Twitter, etc. While we Europeans are buying fireplace CD-ROMs – in America and Canada they have a fireplace channel and of course the step to Rotisserie Channel is smaller then.
A great way to serve bread!
8-8-2011
We really enjoyed our dinner at Auberge Saint-Gabriel in Montréal, and all the show elements they use were an inspiration for Horecatrends. For example the bread is served, delicious warm, with a bow around it! It’s served on a shelve with knife in it.
Great design at Auberge Saint-Gabriel
8-8-2011
Auberge Saint-Gabriel in Montréal, has a lot of space which is designed in an original way by designer Bruno Braën. For example the first thing you see upon entering the restaurant is a huge spine of a whale hanging in the center of the restaurant. They also have a grass-covered expanse that becomes a picnic and play area for the young at heart, and two genuine stuffed moose joined at the neck—the antithesis of a moose trophy on the wall—serve as a lamp. At their website you’ll find more pictures.
Walk this line…..

As we are confronted in the Netherlands with a lot of festivals during the summer, today we serve you this idea to get some extra attention for a festival through social media. The Beercompany Zlaty Bazant created an original and simple checking alcohol tester – The Line. By this they created a buzz about their product and the festival.
