Relish Catering + Hospitality’s Post

We Just Wrapped Our Washington, DC Holiday Pop-Up – And What a Beautiful Experience It Was! There’s something truly special about connecting with our customers face-to-face. It’s more than just handing over a bottle of champagne — it’s about the conversations, the stories, and the shared excitement over every pop and pour. Our recent pop-up at Hotel Nell - Union Market was a celebration of more than just champagne. It was a chance to meet our supporters, answer their questions, and offer guidance on selecting the perfect bottle for themselves or as a gift. Moments like these remind us why in-person interactions are so essential. Here’s why these face-to-face experiences matter: -Personalized Guidance: Each customer is different, and being there in person allows us to offer thoughtful recommendations. -Building Community: Luxury isn’t just about the product — it’s about connection. Events like this bring people together. -Real-Time Feedback: Hearing directly from customers gives us insight into what they love, what they’re curious about, and how we can continue to serve them better. We’re incredibly grateful for everyone who stopped by, shared a moment with us, and took a little piece of B. Stuyvesant Champagne home. Your support means everything. To everyone who joined us, thank you for being part of this memorable experience. If you missed us this time, don’t worry — there’s more to come. Stay tuned for the next opportunity to sip, shop, and connect with us in person. Until then, keep the celebration going with B. Stuyvesant Champagne. #SipStuyvesant #CustomerExperience #HolidayPopUp #BStuyvesantChampagne #ChampagneVibes #ThankYou #CustomerConnection

Before we open we start our day with a premeal. This consist of different topics of conversation that keeps us aligned. We go over any new items, events for the day, and this pictures below is a roleplay being presented. This is reflecting at its finest. Here at Your 3rd Spot™ Social Dining we do roleplays to keep things fresh. As a team in different positions it's fun to hear what one department will spiel to guests vs. another department. When we do these roleplays we always have the team reflect. What did we like or what can we add. Hearing these also keep the team informed and aligned so we are all on one accord. These roleplays are super fun as well with the team because they are always different. We throw out different names and situations. It's always fun to see the reply with who is doing the roleplay because you must know how to answer any curve ball. That's why this team is so great. They test each other because we all have the same goal of winning and delivering the best of the best. Now that is a team. Working together to be better. #your3spot #atl #atlanta #hospitality #teamwork #growth

Need to start using you next year

It's crazy to see what startups can accomplish in a short period. Although we are backed by industry experience, there were numerous times when we were stuck with a lot of things. And the only attitude with which we moved forward was "don't know how but I will get it done." Everyone did everything irrespective of their roles, and that has helped the company to slowly stabilize itself. We are still growing and I'm extremely grateful to be here and to be a part of this journey. The learning definitely doesn't stop here and so do we! #oneyearanniversary #startup #endlesslearning

INVITING TOP CLIENTS AT YOUR EOY PARTY: ARE YOU OUT OF YOUR MIND?! 😱 You're planning that extravagant End of Year dinner, the one where you invite all your top clients. Sounds great, right? Wrong! 🚫  Picture this: the venue is sparkling, the food is gourmet, and your staff is... well, let's just say they’ve “celebrated” a little too much. You know the type — too many cocktails and suddenly, they’re channeling their inner Shakespeare but with less grace and even fewer manners. 🌪️  "Cheers to us!" 🎊 they shout, as they clumsily spill red wine on the pristine white tablecloth. Surely, that’s not exactly how you want to kick off the New Year with your most valued clients, am I right?  Now, I’m not saying we shouldn’t celebrate — I get it, the desire to let loose is real after an eventful year. But the thing is that your employees are ambassadors of your brand. When they mingle with high-profile clients, every word, gesture, and sip counts. Honestly, how do you think your top client will feel when your team mates start unleashing their inner party animals? 💃 Meanwhile, your clients are trying to decipher if they should honourably clap for their steep investment in your company or send a desperate SOS from the buffet table. Is the glory of having your top clients worth the risk of them witnessing an unpolished performance that even the most forgiving of audiences would balk at? 💔 Is this the lasting impression you want to leave on your clients? If the answer is no, before you roll out the red carpet for those important guests, allow me to introduce myself! 🎩 From networking etiquette to formal dining finesse, I can help. Think flawless menu design, impeccable seating charts, and yes, even those speeches that won’t have clients checking their watches with a yawn! ⏳ So, before you enter the whirlwind of EOY party planning, let’s discuss how to equip your team with the skills necessary to handle these celebratory moments with elegance and composure. After all, the way you celebrate reflects the values you uphold. Cheers! 🥂✨ #EOYParty #EtiquetteMatters #CorporateEtiquette #BusinessNetworking #EndOfYearEvent #ReputationManagement

☕ Coffee, Laughter, and Hospitality Magic! ☕ This weekend, I found myself in a coffee shop in Liverpool, ordered my usual coffee... and THIS is the cup I was handed! 🥤 Honestly, it’s the funniest cup ever – the joke printed on it had me laughing out loud. 😂 It’s such a simple thing, but it really made my day. Of course, I had to share it with my family and friends (who also found it hilarious). It’s moments like these that remind me how much small details can transform a customer’s experience. Whether it’s a clever cup, a kind smile, or the perfect waffle (shameless plug for my industry 😉), these touches create memories that keep customers coming back. 💡 Hospitality isn’t just about products or services; it’s about making people smile. And this cup did just that for me! What’s the funniest or most unique thing you’ve encountered in your hospitality journey? Let’s share the laughs below! 👇 #Hospitality #CustomerExperience #CoffeeCulture #LiverpoolVibes #SmallDetailsBigImpact

Ever attended a banquet where the grandeur faded but the stories lingered? Magnificent chandeliers, gourmet meals, and sparkling silverware often paint the first layer of a memorable banquet. However, strip away the opulence, and the essence truly unravels. It's not the lavishness that etches these gatherings in our memories; it's the stories shared between the walls. Imagine a room buzzing not with the clinking of glasses but with laughter, heartfelt conversations, and the warmth of shared experiences. These are the moments that stick, long after the last guest leaves. It's the unexpected connections, the shared vulnerabilities, and the laughter that resonates through time. In a world captivated by materialistic charm, the true magic of banquets unfolds in the human spirit's resilience to find joy, companionship, and understanding in the most ordinary moments. It's a gentle reminder that at the heart of every grand event lies the simple, yet profound power of storytelling. Next time you find yourself amidst the splendour of a banquet, look beyond the surface. Engage, listen, and share. Because the most unforgettable banquets aren't remembered for how they looked, but for how they made us feel.

🥂 Another 'first' ticked off last night - The Casual Dining Awards! 🎉 A huge thank you firstly to the The Restaurant Group for inviting us & being such great company! A massive congratulations to all the winners - we love to see some of our beloved Yumpingo Customers getting that well deserved recognition ❤️ Reflecting on this experience, I am reminded of the importance of checking in on my own career aspirations and accomplishments. With over 15 years in Client Services, and 6 of those dedicated to hospitality technology, anyone that has worked with me will know that I forge strong client relationships based on my commitment to deliver (yes tooting my own horn a little here for a moment), my dedication to drive results with transparency, whilst sharing my knowledge and guidance. Perception & reputation has always been incredibly important to me and that means working hard & being the best I can be in my role. Admittedly, I've previously bypassed events, citing time constraints—an oversight I now recognise. Over the last year or so, I've had the opportunity to 'get out there' more and that's allowed me to become so much more rounded as a professional - Some of the most meaningful conversations happen over a glass or two of vino! Walking into industry gatherings now, I'm greeted by familiar faces, we pick up on our last conversations, check in on life - genuine connections beyond business matters. In summary, while delivering results remains, to me, the foundation of a building a strong personal brand, investing time in forging connections outside 'office hours' is equally essential. It's it's an empty shell of a house if you don't dedicate the time to share life experiences, celebrating success, and forget about the day to day stresses together! 🙌 Note to future self though - Take more photos! 😅
