  • Building Restaurants That Feel Like Home - Yann de Rochefort - Defining Hospitality - Ep #222
    2025/10/22
    Can structure and systems actually make hospitality feel more human?Yann de Rochefort, founder of Boqueria Restaurants, has spent the last 20 years redefining what modern hospitality feels like. From a single tapas bar in Manhattan to beloved locations across the U.S., Yann has built a restaurant brand rooted in warmth, culture, and design, all while keeping the experience consistent and deeply human. Yann shares how structure creates freedom, why culture matters more than any single person, and how intentional design can make every guest feel at home the moment they walk in. He also opens up about scaling Boqueria through stormy seas, building resilient teams, and leading with purpose in one of the toughest industries around.Takeaways: Build strong habits and systems in your work or business. This structure provides the freedom to improvise and be creative when needed.Prioritize genuine human connection over transactional interactions. Listen, observe, and tailor your approach to each individual’s needs.People may come and go, but a strong, clearly defined culture anchored in real values, beliefs, and rituals will sustain and grow your organization.Don’t just put values on a wall. Integrate them into daily language, feedback, and rituals so they become part of your team’s identity and decision-making.When expanding or collaborating, ensure alignment in values, energy, and target audience. Don’t compromise on what makes your brand unique.The hospitality industry offers steep career paths for those willing to learn and work hard. Invest in training and provide opportunities for advancement.Sometimes the simplest products (like dates wrapped in bacon) become customer favorites. Don’t overlook the power of doing simple things exceptionally well.Quote of the Show:“What distinguishes hospitality from a transaction is the human connection.” - Yann de RochefortLinks:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/yann-de-rochefort-1050771/ Website: https://boqueriarestaurant.com/ Book Link: https://a.co/d/5LmLh57 Shout Outs:1:07 - James Beard Foundation https://www.jamesbeard.org/ 2:05 - AC Hotels https://ac-hotels.marriott.com/ 2:24 - Schnippers https://www.schnippers.com/location/schnippers-times-square/ 3:12 - Dave Trost https://davetrostdesign.com/ 5:30 - Ethan Gabany https://www.linkedin.com/in/egabany/ 5:37 - Hyatt https://www.hyatt.com/loyalty/en-US 5:55 - Bon Appetit Magazine https://www.bonappetit.com/ 5:58 - Houston/Hillstone’s https://www.houstons.com/ 13:56 - Meyer Davis https://www.meyerdavis.com/ 18:11 - Will Meyer https://www.linkedin.com/in/will-meyer-7685677/ 22:45 - Mike Tyson https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mike_Tyson 26:15 - Ritz Carlton https://www.ritzcarlton.com/ 28:38 - Mark Green https://www.linkedin.com/in/coachmarkgreen/ 36:48 - Hampton Inn https://www.hilton.com/en/brands/hampton-by-hilton/ 36:53 - Moxy https://moxy-hotels.marriott.com/ 36:57 - W Hotels https://w-hotels.marriott.com/ 43:02 - Entrepreneurs’ Organization https://eonetwork.org/ 45:52 - Setting the Table https://a.co/d/fvTjMA9 45:54 - Danny Meyer https://www.ushg.com/team/danny-meyer 45:58 - Union Square Cafe https://www.unionsquarecafe.com/ 🏨✨ Defining Hospitality is Sponsored by Berman Falk https://www.bermanfalk.com/ - Check out their impact page! 🌍🌱 https://www.bermanfalk.com/impact/ Ways to Tune In: Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/0A2XOJvb6mGqEPYJ5bilPXApple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/defining-hospitality-podcast/id1573596386Google Podcasts: https://podcasts.google.com/feed/aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuZGVmaW5pbmdob3NwaXRhbGl0eS5saXZlL2ZlZWQueG1sAmazon Music: ​​https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/8c904932-90fa-41c3-813e-1cb8f3c42419Transistor: https://www.defininghospitality.live/

  • Designing for Memory: Storytelling in Interiors - James Lee - Defining Hospitality - Episode #221
    2025/10/15
    What makes hospitality design truly memorable?Today, Dan is joined by James Lee, Hospitality Managing Director and Design Principal at IA Interior Architects. James discusses the blurring lines between architecture and interior design in the context of hospitality, emphasizing the emotional impact of interior spaces. They explore the unique focus of IA on creating immersive and memorable experiences through design. James shares insights on the importance of understanding local culture for international projects, the role of social media in contemporary design research, and the significance of budget considerations in executing successful hospitality projects. Additionally, the conversation highlights the team's innovative approach, exemplified by their radical innovation project, 'The Passage,' aimed at repurposing abandoned railway lines into sustainable hotel destinations. James discusses the collaborative efforts within IA and emphasizes nurturing young talent to drive creative and impactful design solutions.Takeaways: Blur the lines between architecture and interiors to create seamless, holistic hospitality experiences that connect with both the mind and the heart.Lead with storytelling in your design process. A powerful narrative makes spaces resonate emotionally and ensures people remember the moments they experience there.Involve local culture and community in your projects by researching social media, visiting neighborhoods, and identifying authentic “sense of place” elements to celebrate.Engage trusted partners early (lighting, FF&E, or case goods specialists) to ground your creative vision in realistic budgets and avoid costly redesign cycles.Dedicate a portion of time each week to innovation. Even two hours of “white space” thinking can spark ideas that transform projects and strengthen team collaboration.Mentor younger designers by channeling their raw creativity into workable solutions, blending fresh energy with experienced guidance to push design forward.Treat sustainability as both a design principle and a responsibility. Look for ways to repurpose structures, reduce waste, and give back to the community through your projects.Quote of the Show:“ Let's not try to hit the brain, let’s try to hit the heart.  Let the story really relate to what we wanna say, not just literally, but emotionally.” - James LeeLinks:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/james-lee-6430ab71/ Website: https://interiorarchitects.com/ Radical Innovation Voting Form: https://form.typeform.com/to/BoqOp3CR?typeform-source=www.radicalinnovation.io Shout Outs:1:30 - Four Seasons https://www.fourseasons.com/ 1:31 - Ritz-Carlton https://www.ritzcarlton.com/ 1:32 - Marriott International https://www.marriott.com/default.mi 12:33 - Incline Village https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Incline_Village,_Nevada 17:38 - Radical Innovations https://www.radicalinnovation.io/ 18:03 - The Passage https://vimeo.com/1117799335?fl=pl&fe=vl 41:25 - Veronica Givone https://www.linkedin.com/in/veronica-givone-1234bba/ 🏨✨ Defining Hospitality is Sponsored by Berman Falk https://www.bermanfalk.com/ - Check out their impact page! 🌍🌱 https://www.bermanfalk.com/impact/ Ways to Tune In: Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/0A2XOJvb6mGqEPYJ5bilPXApple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/defining-hospitality-podcast/id1573596386Google Podcasts: https://podcasts.google.com/feed/aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuZGVmaW5pbmdob3NwaXRhbGl0eS5saXZlL2ZlZWQueG1sAmazon Music: ​​https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/8c904932-90fa-41c3-813e-1cb8f3c42419Transistor: https://www.defininghospitality.live/
