Blog 1 (Post 3) Rachael Schulte
Article: http://restaurant-hospitality.com/trends/flemings-steakhouse-small-plates1011/
This week's featured article was about bringing small plates into a steakhouse called the "Flemming's". Typically you wouldn't find small plates offered at steakhouses however customers are ordering them more now than ever.
-From the restaurant aspect they quote "you know small plate offerings are hot when big steakhouse chains add them to the menu".
Restaurant operators offered small plates for a tester so typically customers would order several different and share between everyone in their party. This offering worked every well so small plates took on as a meal for itself. Instead of ordering a large portion of one meal customers were ordering several small dishes. It is becoming more and more common for restaurants to have a small menu and large portion menu. Just recently Flemings added 7 small plate itemes to their menu some in which include sliced filet megon, jumbo shrimp, lamp chops, scollops, and a lobster tempera.

As a restaurant operator it is difficult to narrow down what you want to offer on the small portion menu. Owner of Fleming's tried out nearly 100 potential dishes before residing to the ones listed above. This article is a great way to encourage other restaurants to be adding small plates to their menus as well and shows potential customers a sneak peak at new trends that will be happening!

Starbucks is now serving $2 breakfast sandwiches, back by popular demand! This article claims that they listened to customers ideas and brought back tasty breakfast sandwiches for just $2 starting the week of October 4th.
In the article they mention the favorites they have to offer which includes bacon & Gouda, veggie & Monterrey jack, ham & cheddar, reduced fat turkey bacon, & white cheddar, & also a spinach & feta breakfast wrap. Without reading this article I would have never known about this special going on. Great Job Starbucks for promoting breakfast specials!
And also thanks to your ideas, we've included the Spinach & Feta Breakfast Wrap with cage-free egg whites, feta, roasted tomatoes and spinach in a tasty wheat wrap in the $2 offer.
Give one a try and let us know what you think.

This article was posted mid-September when we began following our blogger. I read this article and found it very interesting because I enjoy Starbucks frappuccino's! They have just introduced a new flavor of their frappuccino called the salted caramel mocha. What I found interesting about this article is they listened to customer feedback (very important) and came up with a new amazing flavor for customers to try! In the article they included some of the beverages ingrediants that may trigger customers to trying the new blend out. It has a balance of mocha sauce, toffee nut syrup, coffee, milk and ice. Yummm sounds good! Many that have tried this say its the best yet.
This article has encouraged me to go try out the new flavor, thanks blogger!

The Blog I've been following:
I started following this blog
They can be found on facebook as well.
In hearing on the news today that there was an amendment to the Casino bill in MA, one of the parts to that is the free drink give away's allowed.
I"m waiting for my 'comment' to be approved....but in case it's not, here's my comment:
MA is one of the very few states that don't allow a complimentary beverage or a happy hour. When guests from out of state come here, they have an expectation of a 'free drink' and we can't offer that to them. Instantly the dissatisfaction is evident. I think the efforts that Dave is making with his new business, to help impact the hospitality industry is critical to our success in MA! Thanks for the efforts Dave!
In the event you get the same type of message - make sure you copy your post before you publish - so that you can capture and show evidence of what you posted! A screen shot of your post or link to the blog showing your post will work as well! Looking forward to what comes out on this blog in the next 24 hours!
