Nowadays, when customers go to restaurants, they are expecting less formal experiences and rather value simplicity, delivered with excellence. Typical successful concepts offer: at lunch, good food provided in a quick and efficient manner at night and on weekends, restaurants become living places where to meet and enjoy convivial moments in a warm atmosphere. Todays’ customers like sharing their experiences instantaneously on social networks and their choices are driven by restaurants’ e-reputation on Tripadvisor, Opentable, Yelp or local equivalents…
|
So : Imagine how AccorHotels could create a new and innovative F&B Revolution in its restaurants Think about your dreamy concept of F&B Imagine a place where you can experience a very special meal Imagine how AccorHotels restaurants could become the most attractive places where people want to come, meet friends, have some rendezvous… Feel free to focus or not on one of our brands Our goal is to give a new dimension to AccorHotels restaurants. We must find out how to deliver both excellence and authenticity while meeting and adapting to our guests’ expectations, but also by inspiring our teams.
