he seasonally focused fine diner has a handful of new edible innovations to show off.

Despite only opening its doors a few months ago, Uni Restaurant & Bar has quickly established itself as one of Bali’s favourite restaurants. The Berawa fine diner, the side project of Mexicola Group Executive Chef Steve Skelly and Group Service Manager Nicolas Lento, is a haunt for tourists and expats alike, tempted by the restaurant’s innovative seafood-focused dishes. As the new year arrives it brings with it a new menu from the duo. Just as experimental as previous offerings, this slew of new dishes upholds the same focus on flavour and fresh ingredients. Updating the restaurant’s menu will be a regular occurrence for Uni, who want to keep guests intrigued. “We need to stay on our toes because we have guests coming two to three times per week,” explains Steve Skelly. “Last week we had a couple in four nights in a row!” New dishes range from sweet to savoury; tuck into heaped plates of sea urchin fettuccine, topped with caviar and that seaweed butter. Then there’s kombu-cured snapper, paired with seaweed and drizzled with sesame oil, and tuna nigiri, served with caviar and fresh wasabi among others. Fans of the crab lasagne need not fear. The dish which has gained a cult-like status for the restaurant is Uni’s most popular order and will remain. “People are even asking for it to be on Gojek!” says Skelly.

The sweet of tooth will be pleased to hear that the Skelly ’s famed Basque cheese cake will ar r ive on the desser t menu permanently. The creamy treat will come accompanied by fermented honey, bee pollen and sea salt. And that’s not forgetting the drinks menu, which will similarly revamp regularly. Accompanying one of Bali’s best collections of wine, Uni’s drinks list includes a series of unorthodox takes on the cocktail.

“WHERE I BELONG”: Heimtextil presents the design trends for 2020/2021 Heimtextil will launch the new 2020/2021 trend season with the general theme “WHERE I BELONG”. This season, Stijlinstituut Amsterdam is responsible for the Trend Book content and Trend Space implementation at the upcoming international trade fair for home and contract textiles. Alongside Stijlinstituut Amsterdam, London-based studio FranklinTill and Danish agency SPOTT trends & business contributed to the 20/21 global forecast for perspective-related interior design.

Together with the Heimtextil management team, these Trend Council participants gave insights into future styles during a workshop. At the annual international Trend Council workshop, identity was an ever-present topic: part of a broader discussion on gender and cultural diversity, on tolerance and curiosity. Today, the self-identification process seems more complex than ever. Identities are now formed through experiences that take place simultaneously, on different levels. Locally, nationally, globally, both online and offline. Identity therefore can consist of many different layers. In fact, individuals can all have multilayered identities.

43rd | Vol 28 | 2019 | www.hotelier-indonesia.com

Making Room for the Multifaceted Self As an overarching theme, “WHERE I BELONG” addresses layered identities via the five diverse Heimtextil 20/21 trends. “Maximum Glam” turns the glamorous life tech-savvy, “Pure Spiritual” finds balance in nature and mysticism, “Active Urban” values utilitarian, adaptable solutions, whereas “Heritage Lux” celebrates rich historical legacies and “Multi-Local” embraces global cultural influences. Reflecting on this year’s Heimtextil trend “WHERE I BELONG” shows one size does not fit all. To unravel and reveal the layers of our identities in an informative and inspiring way, Stijlinstituut Amsterdam invited four design studios and two photographers to capture the core of each theme. Each creative was assigned a theme matching their philosophy, practice and methodology, enabling them to bring a personal and authentic aspect to the stories.

Heimtextil International Trade Fair for Home and Contract Textiles Frankfurt am Main, 7 to 10 January 2020 Establishing five worlds as spaces to experience, made for with and of exhibitorsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; products, the Trend Space will also realise 2D visualisations from the book as 3D spaces. Conceptual installations will actively engage visitors and motivate them to share their experiences by creating dynamic settings all about performance and interaction. Settings can be bizarre, beautiful, and at times bewildering: itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s now up to the visitors to define where they and their target customers belong. Future Materials Library A highlight of the Heimtextil Trend Space 2020 will be the Future Materials Library curated by FranklinTill, presenting

emerging sustainable material innovation to the interior textile industry. Focused on material composition and manufacturing innovation, the library exhibits will provide invaluable insight and inspiration for visitors and exhibitors alike, complementing the curated showcase of aesthetic design and colour trends. Each showcased sample will feature on-point information about each materialâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s raw origins, manufacturing process and potential afterlife. Material Manifesto Heimtextil and the international trend team created a Material Manifesto outlining how to manage resources used during the event and avoid using new materials that can end up as waste when the exhibition closes. Through intelligent material choice, Stijlinstituut Amsterdam will reduce material impact to create an immersive forum with a minimal

footprint. Filling the 2,000 sqm Trend Space over four exhibition days is a challenge that the Heimtextil and Stijlinstituut Amsterdam teams must collaborate on to make a forum built primarily of textiles and inflatables with materials that can be reused after the event. Working according to the principles of circularity, these textiles fit for reuse will be combined with Messe Frankfurt stock components and rented and loaned materials. These installations go beyond decorative backdrops: they will tell distinctive stories representative of this year’s trends while meeting Heimtextil’s commitment to sustainability. Find out more about the Heimtextil Trends and Trend Book: www.heimtextil-trends.com MAXIMUM GLAM Pleasure seekers revel in layering theatrical influences and glamorous showtime aesthetics, forging a fantastic marriage between the crafted and digitally rendered. Textiles show a ‘more is more’ attitude through a mash-up of glam, gradients and spectrums, fake fur, pile and fringe, jacquard weaves and fantastic prints. The flashy, kitsch colour range becomes brutally glam thanks to electric sheen, synthetic shimmer, digital glitch and artful blur. A riot of clashes and rebellion. PURE SPIRITUAL Idealists seek perfection and purity, restoring equilibrium by connecting with the uber-natural. They embrace technology for good while shifting between realism and mysticism in pursuit of a personal haven. To address a renewed bond with nature, organic matter, raw materials and pure textiles are selected which show nature’s traces, organic structures and irregularities. Shades are created from the earth and cultured by man. An elemental and pure range reflects the source of their existence. ACTIVE URBAN Urban dwellers confront the challenges of the fast paced, shape-shifting, man-made environment by searching for utilitarian, adaptable solutions. They value tech performance while making smart use of available and renewable resources. Functionality is prioritised, while looking cool and working well remains key. Interior/sportswear hybrid textiles show smooth surfaces and a fun mash-up of graphic textures. The paletteshows uniform blue, asphalt grey and caterpillar yellow.

HERITAGE LUX Preservers of historic legacies treasure sensuousness alongside the uncanny, enlightenment together with darkness, for a whole new immersive experience. This new narrative translates to a love for luxury and splendour, decoration and embellishment. Finding beauty in history and nature through ornamental patterning and alluring surface enhancement. Reflecting on ancient history results in a palette featuring enigmatic blood red, sapphire and a lustrous mother-ofpearl. MULTI-LOCAL Hyper-locals go global, celebrating inclusivity over appropriation, honouring traditional craftsmanship and adjusting the world’s gaze to embrace exchange, creative integrity and diverse identities. Indigenous style meets global influences. This is a celebration of crafted and decorative pattern, from tribal and folkloric to geometric and abstract. Textile colours become part of a wider cultural narrative, linked to local community, cultural heritage and private identity.

aking financially sound business investments is a critical aspect of any hotel owner’s world. However, sorting through today’s vast sea of revenue technology and analytical capabilities can often leave owners swimming in dark, murky waters. Here are the top six questions hoteliers should ask before investing in a revenue management solution for their organization: 1. WHAT’S MY ROI? It’s important to work with a revenue partner to determine which solution solves the organization’s business needs. Most providers will share the average ROI results their customers receive, but look for one that leverages a large database of results from similar properties. This insight helps estimate benefits and ROI with a very high degree of accuracy.

43rd | Vol 28 | 2019 | www.hotelier-indonesia.com

Realistically, owners see a 3.5 to 5.5 percent increase in their room revenue, with some hotels reporting improvements as high as 14 percent. 2. WHAT DOES “REVENUE OPTIMIZATION” MEAN, AND WHY DOES IT MATTER? Optimizing room revenue has two significant components: the price charged for guest rooms and inventory management. These two components work hand in hand and cannot be viewed as independently functioning aspects of any revenue solution. A revenue management system that does not set price is categorized as a yield management system; a system without inventory management is categorized as a pricing system. Only solutions with both components are called revenue management systems and fully optimize room revenues. Solutions providing only one component or the other offer a partial revenue solution.

3. DO I EVEN NEED A REVENUE SOLUTION? Maybe your revenue manager can handle things just fine, but take into consideration that the current revenue and distribution environment is becoming exponentially more complex. The number of distribution channels are consistently increasing, and hotel inventory is widely available in more channels. Inventory and rates have to be updated in many places, taking up a large portion of a revenue manager’s working day. This leaves sparse time to think strategically and make effective decisions that drive long-term revenue. A revenue solution that makes and implements tactical decisions to integrated selling systems will free up time and allow them to focus on revenue strategy. A system that automatically distributes rates and inventory controls also removes concerns over the potential for lost revenue opportunities. 4 . WHAT IF MY REVENUE MANAGER HAS NEVER HANDLED A REVENUE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM? The implementation of a revenue solution will change a revenue manager’s day-to-day responsibilities. This is why selecting a revenue technology partner with an extensive support network is critical in the overall decision-making process. Evaluate how a revenue technology provider can support the organization’s team during and after the installation. This helps the revenue manager become more knowledgeable and comfortable with the system—and maximize system capabilities after its installation. 5. HOW SHOULD MEETINGS & EVENTS REVENUE BE EVALUATED IN A SOLUTION? Look for a scalable solution that can provide function space and group business forecasts and evaluations— and analyzes whether business should be accepted or rejected based on its profitability. Evaluations should consider group and function space requests against the business forecasted in the hotel and its function rooms.

Investing in a system that optimizes both function space and hotel rooms ensures the largest revenue streams are optimized with a well-aligned revenue strategy.

6. HOW DO I KNOW A SOLUTION USES THE RIGHT ANALYTICS? Algorithms are the engine in revenue management systems. They determine the best price and inventory management outputs to optimize revenue. The complexity of the algorithms determine the capabilities of the system: low-complexity algorithms will provide descriptive analytics, such as various levels of business intelligence and reporting; more complex algorithms allow for predictive analytics, which is what most pricing and yield management systems use today. These algorithms allow hotels to forecast at a totalhotel level, set selling prices and, in some cases, manage inventory with length-of-stay and overbooking controls. Industry-leading systems— using a large number of complex algorithms—provide prescriptive analytics. These systems not only provide forecasts at detailed levels and pricing decisions by room type and different lengths of stay, but they will also provide an analysis of the impact of these decisions on business. These sophisticated systems are self-learning and provide the levels of detail needed to truly optimize profits. Investigating these questions will help hotel owners shine a light on the important issues requiring consideration—making the navigation of today’s revenue waters a much more pleasant voyage. ©2018 Integrated Decisions & Systems, Inc.

ustralia’s favourite burger brand is en route to Bali, with Managing Director and Founder of the Grill’d Group Simon Crowe announcing the company will welcome its first international restaurant, Grill’d Bali, to Seminyak Square in late December, 2019.

It will feature all classic Grill’d homemade burgers including the new Beyond Meat range, famous chips and healthy salads, as well as an exclusive selection of shared sides such as crispy onion rings, crunchy corn fritters, cheesy chips, tasty chicken bites and charred broccoli with homemade yoghurt sauce.

Bali was the logical first international location for the brand for a handful of reasons; its proximity to Australia, the burgeoning population of expats, and rising numbers of Australian tourists who visit the holiday island all year round. On top, there’s also the availability of highquality, fresh produce.

Dishes will be created using only the best of Bali produce. Grill’d has already formed relationships with the best local producers on the island, with only the best beef, chicken, eggs, and vegetables to be on the menu, partnered with bread baked fresh every day.

“

Bali is the perfect destination to expand the Grill’d brand internationally,” explains Crowe. “It has a great service culture, a strong, well-trained hospitality workforce, and hard-working farmers who are growing some seriously good produce.”

Sitting on busy Jalan Kayu Jati, on the former site of the Grocer & Grind café, the iconic building has been lovingly restored by a team of prominent local builders renowned for their work on fellow Bali dining institutions Mexicola, Tropicola, Da Maria, and Uni, to name a few. Casual but refined is the mantra for the new space, which has been designed as a sanctuary for customers wanting to enjoy a meal in air-conditioned surrounds, while watching Seminyak’s crowds pass by. The existing building’s impressive structure and high roofline have remained, while the interiors have been transformed courtesy of an impressive open kitchen, where customers can see the burgers being made. The space now also houses custom-designed bar, bespoke lighting and furniture, with seating for 150 inside and out. While the menu will be familiar to loyal Grill’d fans, there will be some new additions exclusive to the Bali restaurant. Grill’d Chef & Menu Innovation Manager Josh Powell (ex-Vue de Monde, Circa and The Fat Duck) has tailored the menu to suit the island’s relaxed lifestyle and holiday makers who want to take their time grazing on a selection of dishes over a cocktail or three.

43rd | Vol 28 | 2019 | www.hotelier-indonesia.com

An extensive cocktail list will accompany the menu, designed by Bali’s best bartender, Gogon (ex-Bikini). Classics include Relish the Day (Bloody Mary), Monkey Colada (Pina Colada), Whisky Whistle (Whisky Sour), That Bali Mojo (Mojito) and Vesper Vibes (Espresso Martini) while the ‘Fancy Pants’ menu features creations like Butterfly Kisses (Butterfly pea gin, soda and turmeric cordial), Pink Knight (vodka, dragonfruit, cranberry, galangal syrup and twist of lime), Pine Star (white rum, pineapple jam, starfruit, cinnamon syrup and a hint of citrus), Passionate Tango (vodka Chambord, passionfruit, mango, ginger beer and lime) and She’ll Be Apples (vodka, fresh apple juice, rosemary and spice). The soft drink collection is also unique to Grill’d Bali and will present a range of housemade sodas, iced teas, local Kombucha root beers, freshly squeezed juices and milkshakes. In a nod to its new island home, the eatery will crack open whole young coconuts for customers to enjoy with their burgers and sides. Even the playlist will maintain the tropical theme, mixed by Bali’s music magician Gus Till, the specially selected tunes promise to put customers in a holiday mood. For those with a sweet tooth, there will be a build-your-own ice cream bar, where vanilla or chocolate ice-cream is covered in milk or dark chocolate then sprinkled with seasonal local toppings like roasted coconut, dried berries and nuts.

GRILL’D TO OPEN FIRST INTERNATIONAL RESTAURANT IN BALI Grill’d Bali will also feature the company’s integral community-focused Local Matters program, which gives back to local businesses and charities that support Grill’d. Since launching Local Matters in 2011, Grill’d has raised over $4,500,000 for more than 30,000 local community groups across Australia.

“ Crowe.

Every month our Bali restaurant will share Rp2,500,000 with three different local groups. We’re looking forward to making a real difference to the people and businesses that support us,” says

Grill’d Bali is located at Jalan Kayu Jati no 3X, Petitenget Beach, Seminyak and will be open daily from 10am – 2am. About Grill’d: Established in Melbourne in 2004, Grill’d is one of the largest privatelyowned restaurant groups in Australia. With 138 burger restaurants across Australia and one in Bali, Grill’d employs more than 4,000 staff, and prides itself on working with local suppliers to ensure the provenance, quality and freshness of all its ingredients. Over the years, Grill’d has been recognised for its outstanding service and dedication to excellence by winning awards such as KPMG’s Top 10 Australian Brands in Customer Experience Award and Roy Morgan’s Australian Customer Satisfac tion Award for Quick Ser vice Restaurant Of The Year in 2018, and No. 1 Best Restaurant Chain in Asia-Pacific by Conde Nest Traveller in 2014. Additionally, each Grill’d restaurant donates money back into their local community each month. Through this ‘Local Matters’ program, Grill’d has donated more than $4.5 million to local communities across Australia over the past 15 years.

orchester Collection’s Beverly Hills Hotel unveils two bungalows inspired by legendary guests Marilyn Monroe and Howard Hughes as part of ongoing bungalow restoration

everly Hills, CA – Steeped in history as the preferred accommodations for generations of Hollywood royalty, the historic bungalows at The Beverly Hills Hotel are undergoing a comprehensive restoration and thoughtful redesign led by internationally renowned Champalimaud Design. In total, 21 bungalows will have been redesigned as part of the restoration program, with many completed over the past two years. Out of the 21 bungalows being restored there are five distinct legendary bungalows featuring design elements inspired by select notable guests who have frequented the hotel over the past century. Bungalow 5, inspired by Elizabeth Taylor; and Bungalow 22, inspired by Frank Sinatra, were unveiled in the summer of 2016. Bungalow 1, inspired by Marilyn Monroe and Bungalow 3 inspired by Howard Hughes were unveiled in January 2019; and Bungalow 9, inspired by Charlie Chaplin will debut in July 2019. Bungalow 1’s thoughtful new design incorporates aspects of Marilyn Monroe’s life and includes whimsical elements reflective of her most celebrated movie roles. Glamorous and youthful best describe the aesthetic of this bungalow that was a personal favorite of Marilyn Monroe and reflects the southern California lifestyle that she so enjoyed and loved. With curvy furniture, bright and abstract floor coverings, colorful travertine stones, and gold-leafed ceilings, this feminine space is both playful and sophisticated. Strong Jean Michel Frank influences pay homage to her use of his designs in her own home, including extensive use of parchment to envelop aspects of each room. Guests staying in Bungalow 1A will appreciate the following Marilyn Monroe-themed services and amenities:

43rd | Vol 28 | 2019 | www.hotelier-indonesia.com

•

Library featuring classic Marilyn Monroe films and books, including “Norman Mailer Marilyn Monroe Bert Stern and Andre de Dieme,” Some like it Hot, and Gentleman Prefer Blondes.

•

Marilyn Monroe Champagne Bath Bubble Experience featuring a Some Like it Hot bubble bath (Ceara pure Atlantic sea salt from the coast of Brazil and Sweet Orange and Grapefruit Oils), bath pillow, wood back brush, bath mitt, and a bottle of Dom Perignon.

•

Marilyn’s Menu (available via in-room dining), inspired by an interview that appeared in the 1952 issue of Pageant Magazine in which she revealed the following: ‘’My dinners at home are startlingly simple. Every night I stop at the market near my hotel and pick up a steak, lamb chops or liver, which I broil in the electric oven in my room. I usually eat four or five raw carrots with my meat and that is all.’’ She also admitted that she occasionally treated herself to an ice cream sundae. Items from Marilyn’s Menu include: Prawn Cocktail, Heirloom Carrot Salad, DiMaggio’s Spaghetti and Meatballs, Grilled New York Steak, and Marilyn’s Ice Cream Sundae.

Bungalow 3 pays homage to one of the hotel’s most famous residents, Howard Hughes, who lived in the bungalows on-and-off for 30 years. With stormy bold colors, dark stones, and rich exotic woods, this bungalow’s look and feel is as mysterious and moody as the reclusive billionaire himself. Art-deco references include geometrics and rich sheens, conveying a masculine glamour through the use of glossy leathers, tailored shapes, and blue bedroom walls. Guests staying in Bungalow 3A will appreciate the following Howard Hughes-themed amenities:

•

Aviation Cocktail Kit featuring Aviation Gin, Crème Yvette liqueur, Lemon Juice, Maraschino Liqueur

•

Mini Roast Beef Sandwiches. Hughes used to request the hotel leave his roast beef sandwiches under a tree outside his bungalow almost every night.

•

A collection of model airplanes located throughout the suite

First introduced in 1915 to accommodate families that wanted more space and privacy, the iconic bungalows remain an important part of the hotel’s character. They are known the world over for their history with Hollywood royalty and colorful anecdotes, which include Marilyn Monroe living on and off in Bungalow 1 and 7, Howard Hughes spending over 30 years in Bungalow 4 and Elizabeth Taylor and Marlene Dietrich calling them home for several years.

“

We look forward to providing our guests with an enhanced experience that will lovingly highlight the bungalows’ unique features and legendary history with Hollywood and the Beverly Hills community,” says Edward A. Mady, regional director, West Coast, USA and general manager. “Great care is being taken to maintain their beloved features, which include their residential style and privacy, while also allowing us to stay internationally relevant with the next generation of luxury travelers,” he adds. Designed exclusively to enhance the feeling of effortless and modern Californian style while maintaining the property’s existing residential feel, the bungalows include color palettes inspired by warm Southern California tones, such as rust, pinks, greens and

golds. Furniture styles include a mix of tailored 40’s French and Hollywood Regency, enhancing the bungalows welcoming layout and design. Key finishes include decorative wallpapers, custom embroidered panels, hand-stenciled patterns, intricate floor inlays, and silk accent pillows. Stateof-the-art technological upgrades, such as light and temperature control panels and premier Bang Olufsen TVs, are also being made.

“

The proud legacy and grand tradition of The Beverly Hills Hotel served as the basis for my design,” says Alexandra Champalimaud. “This classically rich heritage was the perfect foundation upon which I layered a contemporary and current point of view.” The entire bungalow restoration will be completed in July 2019.

Indonesia International Furniture Expo (IFEX) 2020 Pursuing the Opportunity to Increase Indonesian Furniture Competitiveness and Export Value

akarta, 19 December 2019 – The furniture industry is still regarded as one of the main backbones for the Indonesian economy. The industry absorbs a huge amount of human resources and the number is increasing from time to time. The data from the Ministry of Industry shows an increase in furniture export value. Last year, Indonesian furniture export valued was recorded at US$1.69 billion. On average, the industry is experiencing a growth of 4 per cent per annum. The Indonesian furniture industry is projected to remain growing considering the country has several advantages such as the high number of human resources and abundant raw material supply. To date, Indonesian forest land reaches around 120 million hectares, of which 12 million hectares are categorized as production forests. Indonesia is also famous as the world’s largest rattan producer with 312 types of rattan that the industry can utilize. To realize further growth, the country’s furniture industry needs continuous innovations in terms of the design, the technology, the marketing strategy, and the after-sales service to ensure a high level of customer satisfaction. Region-wise, Indonesian furniture export is still lagging behind Vietnam, which currently sits on 7th place. Globally, the furniture export market is dominated by China followed by Germany, Italy, Poland, and the United States.

“

Our furniture industry still has many home works that we need to solve before we can compete with Malaysia and Vietnam. We do have many advantages to support the industry’s growth but we are still unable to maximize these advantages. The association is always optimistic that our furniture industry will continue to grow and increase its performance from time to time,” explains Chairman of the Indonesia Furniture Industry and Craft Association (HIMKI), Soenoto.

43rd | Vol 28 | 2019 | www.hotelier-indonesia.com

He further says that the industry’s current growth reaches 5-6 per cent per year meanwhile, Vietnam’s growth has reached 16 per cent per annum. Furniture industry stakeholders, namely the industry players and the government, need to work together more intensely to pursue the 10 per cent deficit. Soenoto says the country’s industry players can also work with players from other countries, such as with China, to increase the competitiveness of Indonesian furniture products. In line with the above efforts, the country’s Capital Investment Coordinating Board (BKPM) is reportedly offering investment opportunities in Indonesia to Guangdong and Shandong businessmen. Hundreds of businessmen from both provinces have stated their interest to invest in Indonesia, particularly in Central Java. Soenoto says Chinese investors can help increase Indonesian furniture industry, especially in the finishing sector. “Partnering with Chinese businessmen is one of the ways to accelerate our furniture industry’s growth. However, we must keep our pivotal role in the industry from the upstream sectors. Partnership with these businessmen can unlock new opportunities to work with their international business network,” says Soenoto. The Opportunity to Increase Export As the organization that houses Indonesian furniture industry players, HIMKI regularly conducts events to promote the industry’s growth to the local and international public. One of HIMKI’s annual event is the Indonesia International Furniture Expo (IFEX) that has been successful in introducing and promoting Indonesian quality furniture to the global audience. In March 2020, HIMKI is scheduled to host this largest business-to-business (B2B) furniture exhibition in Indonesia and the region. All these years, IFEX has managed to provide the medium to grow the industry. It attracts thousands of buyers and visitors and offers a golden opportunity to local industry players to exhibit their best products to these international audiences. Last year, IFEX managed to draw 12 thousand visitors and recorded an on-the-spot transaction of US$370 million.

HIMKI was officially declared on May 31 2016 in Jakarta and was later confirmed on July 28 2016 at the Ministry of Industry and on the same day was approved by President Joko Widodo at Istana Negara. HIMKI was established based on similarity in the vision, mission, and purposes among its members to collectively support the country’s furniture and craft industry. The organization is expected to become the institution that is aspirational and accommodating with the spirit of equality among its members. About Dyandra Promosindo

“

IFEX has been recognized as the primary destination to global furniture industry players wanting to find quality products as well as business partners in Indonesia. These international buyers and visitors are key to the success of IFEX and the efforts to increase our export value to the global market,” says Soenoto. Besides promoting the growth of Indonesian furniture industry, one of IFEX 2020 targets is to take advantage of the US market that is left by China due to the trade war between the two countries. In addition to Europe, the US is one of the major export destinations for Indonesian furniture products. Soenoto says Indonesia is not the only country to target the US market. He, therefore, encourages the country’s industry players to find the right strategy to win the US market that was previously dominated by Chinese products. About HIMKI HIMKI is the result of the merger of two previous organizations in furniture and craft industry namely AMKRI and ASMINDO. The merger was strongly supported by President Joko Widodo to create a single entity that is strong and huge that also serves as the government’s partner in supporting the industry to encourage the competitiveness of furniture and craft products in the domestic and international markets.

RADISSON BLU EXPANDS IN VIETNAM WITH OPENING OF NEW BEACHFRONT RESORT AT CAM RANH BAY

adisson Blu, the upperupscale hotel brand that delivers personalized service in stylish spaces, celebrates the opening of an exceptional new beachfront resort on the pure shores of Vietnam. The new Radisson Blu Resort Cam Ranh is nestled on Long Beach, a stunning 18km-long stretch of sand in Khanh Hoa province, on Vietnam’s southcentral coast. Located just 10 minutes’ drive from Cam Ranh International Airport, which offers direct connections to and from major Asian cities including Bangkok, Hong Kong, Seoul and Shanghai, this elegant seafront resort will provide an inspiring retreat for domestic and international travelers alike. Celebrating the beauty of the local culture, Radisson Blu Resort Cam Ranh brings elements of the Vietnamese fishing heritage into the hotel’s design, from an expansive lobby that features a weave pattern of the fishermen’s baskets, floor-to-ceiling windows that overlook the sea, to the warm beige palette complemented by soothing blue and turquoise tones reflective of the sandy shores and calming ocean. The resort features 292 rooms, suites and pool villas, which range from a generous 45 square meters to an expansive 140 square meters with panoramic ocean views. The 36 villas

also boast private pools, cabanas and alfresco dining areas – perfect for life’s special occasions. Wine and dine at the resort’s six stylish restaurants and bars – Sunrise, the vibrant all-day dining destination; BLU Lobster, the signature Vietnamese restaurant and seafood grill; Cheers Bar Bits N Bites, the lively bar; and Waves Beach Bar, a casual and upbeat beach club.

Two further projects are in the pipeline: Radisson Blu Hoi An and Radisson Resort Phu Quoc Long Beach. “Vietnam’s hospitality industry is booming.

ingapore, 17 December 2019 - Euromonitor forecasts that global consumer foodservice is to grow by 24 per cent to US$3.7 trillion by 2023. The Asia Pacific markets are expected to make up half of that. Once a pipe dream for businesses in the region, digitalisation and automation are now impacting consumer experience in a big way, from enhancing business efficiency to completely changing the guest experience as we know it.

Designed with organic shapes, smooth circulations, seethrough systems and natural materials, this highly crafted ensemble is perceived as a ‘Forest’. This feeling is strengthened by the start-up pods, envisioned as the ‘seeds of tomorrow’ growing along the visitor’s journey through the area. The vertical rhythm given by the wooden elements through the entire pavilion reminds the visitors of a fhahoreca.com walk in the woods, passing by a forest clearing as well as three singular shelters – highlighting top and trending innovations from across the globe for the hospitality sector. The biophilic and futuristic design of the Hospitality 4.0 pavilion is inspired from nature and offers a whole range of diverse spaces and experiences: • Start-up Village – a community of creators and innovative businesses displaying new solutions such as 3D food printing, self-service equipment, waste management systems and more within the HoReCa sector.

The only place in Siem Reap where you can sample Royal Khmer cuisine

GRand Hotel d’Angkor launches ‘1932’ Restaurant

43rd | Vol 28 | 2019 | www.hotelier-indonesia.com

111

IEM REAP,Cambodia (Nov. 28, 2019) — Cambodia’s most storied hotel wrote yetanother chapter last week when it unveiled a new restaurant following a landmark refurbishment. Named after the Grand Hotel d’ Angkor’s year of opening, “1932” launched on November 22 at an invite-only dinner for 50 guests who were treated to a parade of traditional Khmer specialties with a contemporary twist. Located on the ground floor of the hotel’s Heritage Wing next to the Conservatory and behind the celebrated Elephant Bar, this elegant venue is the successor to the previous Restaurant Le Grand, which had stood since the hotel’s inception. 1932 inherits the honor of being one of only two establishments in the country that is permitted to serve Royal Khmer Cuisine, the other being its sister Raffles Hotel Le Royal in Phnom Penh.

112

These recipes were passed by royal decree to the hotels from the king’s own kitchen.

Chef Angela said she aims to craft traditional Khmer recipes with a modern approach.

The Royal Khmer Menu brings together an array of textures and treats to whet the taste buds, such as mango and prawn salad, spicy and sour lobster consommé, grilled lamb chops in ginger sauce, red chicken curry in coconut, and for dessert, pumpkin custard.

“Not fusion, but dishes that can be adapted to a Western palate,” she added. One of her new signature dishes is the melt-in-your-mouth Beef Cheek, served with a local aromatic herb known as ma-om , and quail egg curry. Other highlights will include the Chateaubriand-style lok lak , a Wagyu beef striploin with grape puree.

Raffles Grand Hotel d’ Angkor’s Executive Chef is Angela Brown. Originally from Brisbane, Australia, she earned her chef stripes in a number of Sofitel kitchens around the world including London and Bangkok. Having lived in Siem Reap for nearly three years, Brown has a deep appreciation for local culinary techniques. “Khmer cuisine is a combination of refined, simple, delicate flavors,” she said. “The dishes are much subtler than, say, Thai recipes. Khmer flavors pop out, but don’t knock you over.”

A selection of intriguing condiments accompanies each meal, among them the chef’s own creation, duka , a grainy mix of cashew nut, sesame, coriander seed and salt. A local seed called chombok – similar to almond – pervades the rye bread, while lavoch is a Khmer herb and wheat chapati. Overseen by Ms Socheata, 1932’s wine expert, guests can look forward to wine pairings with every dish, including each of the five courses of a Royal Khmer meal.

Raffles, of course, achieved fame as the home of the Singapore Sling, and in keeping with the tradition, a Cambodian version, the Grand Hotel d’Angkor Sling, with a twist of galangal and ginger, is offered as an aperitif. “The refurbishment of the restaurant has brought it up to date with freshness and light, while retaining the sense of traveling back in time,” said Hotel Manager Vincent

Gernigon. “The new look of the restaurant perfectly complements the exciting menus being created by Chef Angela, which add a new dimension to Khmer cuisine.” Raffles Grand Hotel d’Angkor reopened on October 1, 2019, after a closure of six months for renovations. Designed in the late 1920s by architect Ernest Hébrard in French colonial style, the hotel’s interior combines Khmer art and furnishings with Art Deco influences. Renowned for its wroughtiron and timber elevator, “The Grand” served as an early base for archaeologists, explorers and visitors to the rediscovered kingdom of Angkor. It was taken over in 1997 at the invitation of Cambodia’s HRH King Sihanouk by Fairmont Raffles Hotels International.

Cretan Malia Park Botanical bolthole

All-new Cretan Malia Park joins Design Hotels™

erlin, November 19, 2019 – Far removed from the identikit beach hotels that dot Crete’s coastline, Cretan Malia Park is a flora-filled retreat that augments classic Aegean hospitality with a focus on refined luxury and slow-paced living. Owned by the Sbokos family since it opened in the 1980s, the 204-room hotel has recently undergone an extensive renovation program led by Greek architect Vana Pernari, resulting in a unique aesthetic inspired by the colors and textures of the island.

Key to the hotel’s identity is its commitment to sustainability — a crucial philosophy that informs all aspects of the design and operations. Factor in a fresh, Mediterranean kitchen inspired by Crete’s culinary traditions, an organic wellness program that allows guests to commune with the spectacular surroundings, and exquisitely landscaped botanical gardens leading to the sparkling Aegean Sea, and you have a whole new spin on carefree Cretan luxury. www.designhotels.com/cretan-malia-park

Cretan Malia Park’s striking modernist structures were originally conceived in the late 1980s by Antonis Stylianides, who once worked under German Bauhaus legend Walter Gropius. Recently reanimated by Vana Pernari, the hotel’s exteriors have now been stripped back to reveal an exquisitely simple canvas that both references the island’s architectural heritage and allows for the resort’s verdant gardens to take centerstage. Tonal, rough-hewn walls are framed by local swaying palms, banana trees, and Indian figs, and oversized windows further delineate indoor and outdoor areas. The intrinsic relationship with the surroundings extends to the resort’s interiors, which are defined by the use of natural materials such as walnut, chestnut, and bamboo. The ever-changing colors of the Mediterranean landscape are reflected in the use of rattan, stone, brass and ceramics, which combine to impart a warm, relaxed mood in the light-filled public spaces and guestrooms. The stylistic legacy of Crete, both past and present, is explored through a stunning blend of modern art, family heirlooms, and custom pieces crafted by local artisans. Florainspired artworks by the prominent urban Greek artists Thanassis and Dimitris Kretsis infuse living spaces with nature, while the lobby is home to a painting by Philippos

or terracotta, applied by way of graphic wall tiling and textiles. In the suites, sideboards, wardrobes and folding doors accented with rattan screens introduce a rustic fringe to otherwise contemporary spaces. The bathrooms are united by a restrained tonal palette, which sees spherical black and white pendant lighting interweaved with grey terrazzo, local white marble and minimal black fixtures in suites, and beige stone in rooms and bungalows. Olive oil-based amenities come courtesy of Greek brand Olive Era, and the mini bars stock an extensive range of complimentary snacks and beverages sourced from Crete or mainland Greece. Served by the hotel’s impressive organic kitchen garden and inspired by Crete’s rich culinary heritage, the food and beverage offering at Cretan Malia Park is defined by diversity and sustainability. Located on the ground floor of the main building and extending out onto a stunning terrace shaded by a white wooden pergola, Mediterraneo is a fresh, airy all-day restaurant focused on Mediterranean dishes and regional specialties. Offering an insight into traditional Greek gastronomy, Mouries’ menu of simple, time-honored recipes is a celebration of the island’s natural bounty, putting the spotlight on locally caught seafood, freshly pressed olive oil and foraged wild herbs.

Theodorides and a unique Reywal lighting installation by Joy Stathopoulou. Thoughtful details such as the hand-made herringbone cement tiles and the locallysourced ceramic pots that pepper the grounds honor the island’s artisanal roots. Beyond the contemporary Cretan design concept, the hotel plays host to a roll call of high-end design names —including GUBI, House of Hackney, Børge Mogensen, 101 Copenhagen and LRNCE—resulting in a wholly unique series of looks that ranges from mid-century modern to laidback boho.

Also seeking inspiration from the Mediterranean, the concept of Almyra — spearheaded by Athinagoras Kostakos — is influenced by Italian cuisine, centering on a traditional wood-fire oven and a carefullycurated wine list. A stylish, laidback hangout spot, the hotel’s newlyopened Beach Shack is a cool, calm beachside bar that serves Greek tapas crafted by Kostakos throughout the day and sundowners as the night draws in, soundtracked by soothing reggae beats. The Crush, the Pool Bar, and the Lobby Bar round off the hotel’s impressive range of restaurants and bars.

Scattered across a series of low rise structures, the hotel’s rooms and suites are all located on the ground or first floor, ensuring proximity to the hotel’s outdoor spaces are always within reach; be it via a balcony or garden terrace. Each guestroom category is defined by its own set of decorative markers. Double guestrooms are characterized by herringbone flooring and geometrically styled jade-hued wall tiles, while the light and airy bungalows are punctuated with shots of blue

Fully supporting Cretan Malia Park’s dedication to spiritual and physical wellbeing is a series of spaces devoted to wellness. A daily-changing program of physical activities take place both on-site and on the beach, and are open to all guests. A yoga pavilion plays host to morning classes and meditation sessions and is a restful place to recalibrate body and soul, while The Cute Spa offers an intimate retreat set amid the cacti and banana trees of the hotel’s tranquil gardens.

For younger guests, the two pools, wading pool, and a kids’ club featuring a performance area, test kitchen and garden are sure to provide ample entertainment. A separate youth club, The Place, has been exclusively designed for teenagers with a bar area and cinema screen. Located away from the main building in a unique outdoor setting, the hotel’s Cat Café offers a sanctuary for some of the island’s stray feline population. A beacon for animal lovers and children alike, guests are welcome to feed and pet the neutered cats in isolation at any time of the day. Cretan Malia Park’s commitment to conserving the environment has been woven into the hotel’s DNA since its establishment, and an ambitious sustainability program takes this ethos to a whole new level. Onsite, a policy of sustainable agriculture minimizes water waste and promotes soil health, while employees are offered education sessions to enable them to continue this practice at their own domestic farmsteads. The property is working towards a hotel-wide ban on single-use plastic, and recycling facilities are dotted throughout the hotel grounds. Location The largest of the Greek islands, Crete’s cultural identity is guided by a richly woven tapestry of ancient mythology and history. For those looking to explore the past, the mazelike narrow lanes of old town Malia offer a glimpse into a bygone age, while the 3,500 year old archeological site of Malia Minoan Palace is located just 2km from the hotel. A little further afield, the scenic 40 minute drive to the famed Palace of Knossos takes in verdant vineyards, dramatic gorges and long, sandy beaches.

Anurak Lodge in Thailand Earns Travelife Gold Certification Only 18 accommodations in Thailand have attained Travelife’s rigorous environmental certification standards

oing Green then Gold: Anurak Community Lodge measures up when it comes to sustainable tourism Anurak Community Lodge in southern Thailand has become the first accommodation in the Khao Sok national park area to be Travelife certified. The 20-unit ecolodge, which opened in 2016, received its certification 15 November after complying with Travelife’s rigorous Gold Certificate criteria. These include minimising environmental impact, recording and reducing energy consumption, respecting labour and human rights, maintaining health and safety standards, encouraging community integration, working with appropriate suppliers, and inspiring guest participation in onsite sustainability initiatives. All the measurements are recorded in publicly available sustainability reports by Anurak Lodge to ensure ongoing Travelife compliance.

142

Travelife started in 2007. It now helps 1,500 hotel members around the world - mostly in Europe - to improve their environmental, social and economic impacts. Members that meet a specified standard receive Travelife Gold Certification. “We support a thorough, international standard certification for hotels in Asia, so we chose Travelife, for its rigorous standards,” said George Newling-Ward, the Anurak Community Lodge manager. Since opening, Anurak has been guided by the principles of reducing, reusing, and recycling. Key aspects of its sustainability commitment include banning of single-use plastic and styrofoam and the creation of a recycling station and composting zone. Grey water from the laundry is filtered and used on the ecolodge’s “Rainforest Rising” project, which, over the long-term, will return 3,300 square metres of oil palm plantation to native vegetation cover.

With the exacting nature of Travelife Gold Certification, hundreds of criteria have to be achieved. “We are delighted that Anurak Community Lodge has achieved Travelife Gold Certification,” said C a r o l y n W i n c e r, Tr a v e l i f e ’s Commercial Director. “Anurak Community Lodge is joining a prestigious collection of over 900 properties around the world that have used Travelife to independently verify their commitment to operating responsibly.” Travelife certification comes after Anurak won the 2019 SKAL Asian Area Award in the environmental category in June. In August, the ecolodge was listed among 36 of the world’s leading green lodges and hotels in the National Geographic Traveller (UK) invitationonly Earth Collection. In September, Anurak won the global 2019 SKAL Sustainable Tourism Award in the rural accommodation category.

A BETTER STANDARD: SETTING REVENUE MANAGEMENT SOPS IN INDONESIAN HOTELS Written by - Rachel Grier, Area Vice President, Asia Pacific for IDeaS Many Indonesian hotels practice check-in standard operating procedures (SOPs) to support positive guest experiences and review scores. However, while SOPs are often used in front- of-house environments, they are still not commonly deployed in an area critical to a property’s financial performance: the revenue management department. There is a distinct need for independent hoteliers across the region to establish and deploy SOPs for their revenue management

150

departments to enhance overall staff and property performance. Revenue management SOPs can help key personnel maximise revenue opportunities for a hotel and assist new staff to better understand the hotel’s positioning, market segmentation, pricing structure, inventory and forecasts. But what SOPs are critical to a revenue manager today? Market Analysis: Market analysis SOPs are vital in helping hotels assess their own performance within their local operating environment. Collecting market intelligence to understand the market positioning of a property

43rd | Vol 28 | 2019 | www.hotelier-indonesia.com

is one of the first steps in the practice of revenue management. The data gathered from market analysis SOPs help define a hotel’s benchmark rate within its wider pricing environment and inform its marketing strategies. To create effective market analysis SOPs, hoteliers need to research or update their competitor information—including a review of their competitor set. A market analysis should also include a report on the local market conditions (supply and demand, GDP growth, inflations, key industry news) to assist with ongoing budgeting processes.

HOTELIERS SHOULD ALSO DEVELOP A SWOT ANALYSIS FOR THEIR PROPERTY AND LOCAL COMPETITORS TO HELP DEFINE THEIR MARKET POSITIONING. Forecasting: Accurate forecasts can be instrumental for planning inventory and staffing levels. If an Indonesian hotel can anticipate demand, it can have the right levels of staff working at the right times, even down to forecasting peak check-in and check-out times. For hoteliers without a sophisticated revenue management system (RMS) in place, forecasting SOPs are critical to ongoing operations. To establish forecasting SOPs, a hotel should collect and compare the current and previous years’ market segment data, room-type preference data and booking pace. Other logistical considerations include the level of forecast detail (is it by day, by market segments, or by room type?), how far into the future to forecast and how often to review the forecast. For hotels that have deployed an advanced RMS, forecasting is a straightforward matter and SOPs mainly need to focus on how to validate the forecast generated by the system to ensure that optimal best available rate (BAR) is selected.

Revenue Management Meetings: Revenue management is the combination of people, processes and technology, and today’s revenue managers are key collaborators that link marketing, sales, reservations and e-commerce divisions within a property. Although many hoteliers understand the importance of having a formalised revenue management process and culture in place within their organisations, many others in different departments do not. To drive profitability across the entire organisation, revenue managers must work closely with all executives to build and instil a strong culture of revenue management. Regularly staged revenue meetings are a good platform to align the objectives and strategies among key department heads in the hotel. Revenue meeting SOPs should outline the extended revenue management team, attendees of revenue meetings, decision makers and team leader (normally a revenue manager or sales leader), along with topics to be reviewed and reports to be used to benchmark results. SOPs Support Revenue Generating Activities

SOPs for common revenue management tasks such as market segmentation, forecasting, pricing and market analysis are critically important Pricing SOPs are critical to any hotel’s ability to operate to Indonesian hoteliers today.
