Nourishing the Senses: Restaurant Architecture of Bentel & Bentel (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9780997548907)

Today, restaurants reverberate with cultural meaning rooted in the cities and regions to which they belong - crucibles for the social practices that unfold within them, vessels in which the ingredients of hospitality mingle and coalesce. Nourishing the Senses: Restaurant Architecture of Bentel & Bentel is a chronical and analysis of this phenomenon based on real life examples of projects by architects Bentel & Bentel as they serve the biggest names in restaurant and hospitality.Elegantly written and beautifully illustrated with photos as well as sketches, this book opens the door to a world rarely viewed by the public and frequently overlooked in the tell-all memoirs of the chefs and impresarios of the hospitality industry. With clarity and insight, the partners reveal the process and thinking, the issues and challenges, the aspirations and achievements of those who gather to create a novel hospitality experience in cities throughout the U.S.
