Recent years have revolutionized guests' expectations of the golf course — including dining. Ed Doyle recently spoke on this topic with The First Call, sharing "the modern consumer is consistently seeking value, but not always from the perspective of price point. They are relying on us, their favorite clubs and resorts, to offer good and beverage experiences that mirror their lifestyles, which are busy, scheduled, and multi-faceted." ✨ Read more here: https://lnkd.in/eA3VNYQr #foodservicedesign #foodserviceequipment #commercialkitchens #bardesign #hopsitalityindustry #hospitalitydesign #hospitalityconsulting #restaurantconsulting #foodandbeverageindustry #troon

We're excited to share another project that was featured in the FCSI The Americas 2024 Project Showcase. Led by RealFood Design Project Manager, Peter Bryant, our work at The Club at Arrow Creek transcended just kitchen design and operations to prioritize the holistic member and guest experience. ✨ The work? To define the experience of each of the five food and beverage spaces at the Club, from service styling to menu offerings, music, and uniforms, and strategically design the foodservice spaces to deliver on that vision. ✨ The outcome? An ecosystem that meets guests' needs at any time of day, for any occasion — whether that be a drink after a round of golf, a smoothie after a workout, an elegant date night destination, or an event venue to celebrate life's big events.

"The game of golf is no longer confined to traditional green grass, and the modern dining experience is no longer confined to white tablecloths. At GolfZon Social, we challenge both." - Ed Doyle Our work with Golfzon Social was spotlighted by FCSI The Americas in their 2024 Project Showcase! Since our partnership began in 2019, RealFood's contributions to launching the eatertainment venue (a powerhouse collab from Golfzon America and Troon) have centered around creative solutions. With the implementation of cooking technology and menu items that allow the staff to do more with less and quickly scale, the GolfZon Social team and their guests can focus on the social experience. The first two GolfZon Social locations are open in West Nyack and Scarsdale, NY … be sure to swing by. 😉⛳️
