    MoS Rapid Response Script – Danny Meyer Interview Click here to listen to the full episode with Danny Meyer. DANNY MEYER: This virus has done a superb job of exposing a lot of the preexisting ​ conditions that our industry had. We're down to 75 people right now – which, by the way, is fewer people than I employed when I was 27, when I first got into this business. Part of the thing that America is learning is that restaurants play a massively important role in the whole economy of our country. We're throwing a lot of pasta up against the wall and we're going to see what sticks. Being the first to close is one thing – but I don't want to be the last to open. Every day we lose money could lead to even more layoffs, which is exactly the opposite of what we want to do morale-wise, emotionally, or economically. BOB SAFIAN: That’s Danny Meyer, New York City’s pre-eminent restaurateur and the founder ​ of Shake Shack. Forced by the pandemic to close iconic restaurants like Gramercy Tavern and Union Square Cafe, Danny is now radically rethinking his business model, trying to re-image the future of restaurants without killing off the warm hospitality that made his establishments so endearing. I’m Bob Safian, former editor of Fast Company, founder of The Flux Group, and host of Masters of Scale: Rapid Response. Danny was a guest on this show at the very beginning, when the Great Lockdown first began, after laying off 2,000 of his employees.

Located in The Beekman Hotel, Temple Court has earned high marks for both Chef Colicchio's signature style and seasonal take on classic dishes as well as for the restaurant and bar's meticulously appointed decor. Here he tells us how the restaurant pays homage to the neighborhood's history. Watch the video at: http://twn.nyc/TempleCourt "A lot of what we do here at Temple Court starts with this idea of bringing back the classics and making them modern. It's all a metaphor for what's going on Downtown. What's old is new, what's new is old - it's all coming back again," notes Chef/Owner Colicchio. "Walking from the Oculus to Temple Court, you can literally visit the future and the past of Lower Manhattan within 15 minutes," adds Simmons. Temple Court was one of the most highly anticipated restaurant openings in Lower Manhattan and is part of the wave of established names and up-and-coming food stars joining the neighborhood's ranks.

  • How Does Danny Meyer Do
    FIRST RUN FEATURES pRESENTS TWO FILMS ABOUT THE ART OF FOOD A Gastronomical Voyage with a Master of French Cooking Guy Martin is the chef of Le Grand Véfour, the legendary Michelin 3-star Parisian restaurant. As a kid, he dreamed of being a doctor or a rock star. First trained in a pizzeria, 20 years later he is one of the best chefs in the world, with dozens of awards and restaurants in four countries. “Guy Martin: Portrait of a Grand Chef” reveals Martin’s philosophy of cooking, which ranges from resolutely traditional to savagely creative. It brings to life the sources of his inspiration, from his childhood in the rugged Savoy region, to his appreciation of France’s historical supremacy in food, to his surprising and open-minded curios- ity. For Martin, everything always is to be discovered. Nothing is ever finished. The cooking is to be reinvented every day. By drawing from past, he reinvents the present. SRP: $24.95 Catalog: FRF 914598D 52 minutes, color French with English subtitles BOTH TITLES PRE-BOOK: February 22 STREET DATE: March 29 HOW DOES DANNY MEYER DO IT?

  • Hotel Development in NYC
    Hotel Development in NYC Hotel Development in NYC: Winter 2021 Edition All In NYC. Winter 2021 Hotel Update Coming off the strong start to 2020 in January and February, the New York City’s travel and tourism industry slowed in March and came to a near total halt in April. The spread of the Covid19 virus and the necessary restrictions and precautions put in place in response to the pandemic have changed the picture of the industry over the past nine months. The nature of travel shifted from traditional leisure and business to emergency accommodations and local uses. Many of the city’s hotels found ways to support the response to the pandemic and begin to plan for a post-pandemic travel environment. At the same time, a significant proportion of the City’s properties closed temporarily to protect their employees and adjust to reduced demand. Sadly, another group of owners have made the difficult decision to close permanently. At the same time, construction on the majority of new and developing projects resumed as soon as work was permitted. Foundations are being dug, floors are rising, facades are changing the look of neighborhoods and interior work is putting the finishing touches on hundreds of new rooms. Current active inventory has been constantly shifting in response to opportunity and need across the city. According to STR, approximately one-in-three rooms are offline as of December. The hotel pipeline in New York City continues to stand out in the US for diversity of properties and investment. With a range of ground up new buildings, restorations of historic buildings, and expansions, the hotel sector is meeting the diversity of traveler preferences and expectations.

After a series of incarnations over the years, Nomad is now a super hip, bustling neighborhood from morning through night with residents, technology businesses (it’s now being referred to as “Silicon Alley”), loads of retail (leaning heavily toward design), great architecture, hot hotels, and tons and tons of food.

    Masters of Scale Episode Transcript: Danny Meyer DANNY MEYER: I had spent three or four years selling electronic tags to stop ​ shoplifters, which was basically my ticket to living in New York, and it turned out I was a really good salesman. I was completely ignorant to my own burning passion. ​ ​ REID HOFFMAN: That’s Danny Meyer, recounting his former life as a crime-fighter of sorts in ​ the rough-and-tumble of early 80s Gotham. And like many troubled heroes, he was haunted by his past, and uncertain of his future. MEYER: I decided I should opt towards getting a law degree. ​ HOFFMAN: After months of grueling study, he was finally ready to sit the test that would set him ​ on course for a comfortable life in law. MEYER: The night before I took my LSATs, I had dinner with my aunt and uncle and my ​ grandmother, at an Italian restaurant here in New York City. I was in a foul mood and my uncle turned to me and he said, “What the hell's eating you anyway?” And I said, “Well, I gotta take my LSATs tomorrow.” He said, “Well, duh, you want to be a lawyer, of course you're gonna take your LSATs.” And I said something really stupid to him at that point, which changed my entire life, which was, “I don't really want to be a lawyer.” He got furious with me. He said, “Do you not realize that you're going to be dead forever?” And I said, “What do you mean?” He said, “Do you not realize that relative to how long you're gonna be dead, you're gonna be alive for about a minute? Why in the world would you do something that you don't want to do?” And I said, “Well, I don't know what else I would do.” He said, “You gotta be kidding me.
