Dholakpur – A Case study on how to do a successful Pop-up Restaurant!

/in , /by

Date: 22nd February 2019
Venue: Terrace Garden of Jindal School of Hotel Management, Vadodara
Occasion: Desi-Fusion pop up restaurant “Dholakpur”
Hosts: Final year students of 3 year BBA in Hotel & Tourism Management

Third-year students of  BBA in Hotel & Tourism Management took up the challenge of creating a commercial pop-up restaurant for one day. The event was a part of their Gastronomy Course assessment.

The pop-up restaurant was a sellout and an enthralling Culinary experience for all the customers.

The terrace of the college was the venue. The elements that made this pop-up a success were:

1. Unique Food: The students took up the challenge to create an international menu from local ( Gujarati ingredients)

2. Wow factor: The decor was traditional. Low seating, traditional welcome, clay vessels and mud art added variety to the ambience. Gujarati Bandhani & Patola sarees added that extra colour and spark to the overall set up.

3. Entertainment: Live light music and dholak by the students of Tabala section of MS university added to the evening’s attraction.

4. Attractive Pricing: The entry fee of Rs.500/- made the meals affordable to all. Because of this smart pricing ensured that the pop-up restaurant was a sell-out. Separately priced mocktail menu added to the income stream.

5. The U.S.P: The dessert was aptly named “Chitrakala”. This item was a live food art by the budding chefs of JSHM. The dish consisted of finely balanced 12 items which provided the perfect finish to the meals.

6. Team Spirit: No event can be successful without teamwork. Besides the obvious camaraderie, enthusiasm was in abundance as well in the students of JSHM.

With so much thought and effort gone into the pop-up, the event had to be a success!

From bath fixtures to elaborate lobbies – 5 facts only few people know about hotel star ratings!

In the age of social media, all our decisions are based on ratings and user opinions, but the hotel industry is among the few businesses that have always used ratings and benchmarks to help patrons make their decisions. Now we’re all aware of the star ratings, and some of us even know a thing or two about how these ratings work, but we seldom see how much attention ratings pay to the minutest of details.

Here are five things you probably never knew about star ratings and surely they will make you proud of the benchmarks the hospitality industry pursues!

#1 The 800+ Point Checklist

While star rating criteria differ across the world, a common checklist with over 800 points largely determines what star a hotel property manages to attain. This checklist consists of points to do with the property itself, the facilities, adherence to local laws, and most importantly customer service.

5 trendy but unconventional Hospitality careers where students are acing it!

Until a few years ago, if you enrolled for a degree in hospitality your career choices would be limited to the kitchens, service establishments, or rooms division of a hotel or a resort! Not that it was a bad thing, but it meant running with the herd in an already crowded race.

#1. Food  / Hospitality Blogging

With so many dining and accommodation options and a flood of opinions on social media, making the right choice is a confusing task.
