The booking website Roominaminute.com reverses the traditional booking model. Guests can fill in their accommodation preferences for a certain city or area, arrival date, departure date and additional preferations on the website.

This reversed system is very convenient to get full occupancy during busy periods or no-shows and is developed by Nico Dijkstra. Earlier we saw that Bidroom.com launched a similar platform.

The German premium beer Warsteiner transformed the Amsterdam Forest (Amsterdamse Bos) last June 7 to a golf course with a ‘par-3 course’ specially designed for the occasion. LED lighting and striking ‘glow-in-the-dark‘ golf balls guiding the players along the golf course in an exceptional setting that was made up of temporary tee boxes and greens.

As sponsor of the KLM Open and as official sponsor of the European PGA Tour, the top European golf competition, Warsteiner wants to help golf to a wider audiences.

We wish you lots of fun with the World Cup. No idea if you are going to see all the games (or even could watch them) but if you work in a restaurant, the chances are that you are going to miss a few games. Perhaps you can surprise your guests with a dish like the Roca brothers (from El Celler de Can Roca, Girona) made several years ago, pay attention to the detail of the Ipod with the run-up to a goal by Lionel Messi while eating dessert.
Do you make a special dish for the World Cup? Let us know and if it’s original we do put it on horecatrends.
