Tonight at the bar: one of the greats â Auguste Escoffier.
If you come from hospitality or gastronomy, you surely know his name. He was, in a way, the Steve Jobs of fine dining (1846â1935) and became 89 years old.
I donât just love this book because of its beautiful cover. I love it because of what it holds inside. From the very first pages, I felt that Isabel Allende wasnât simply writing about women â she was writing to us, with us, and even through us.
My copy is now full of dog-eared pages, each corner folded down on a passage that spoke directly to my heart.
I canât wait â just a few final touches, and the brand new homepage at unique hotel spirations.com will be live! One of the highlights? The beautifully curated Bar area â a place to gather stories, share moments, and sip on a little soul.
In July, we had a very special guest:
Diana Rossâ 81 years young and bursting with energy.
BecauseOfMyAge she had so much to say â and every word was gold.
It was one of those unforgettable evenings, surrounded by people who danced their way through the disco era â laughter, stories, music, and life itself.
đ Diana, thank you for sharing your journey â the highs, the heartbreaks, and the unstoppable joy.
You remind us all:
đľ No mountain is ever high enough.
And đľ STOP â in the name of love has never felt more timely.










Tonight at the Bar Talk, itâs about to get loud. BeyoncĂŠ might stop by â and weâre not sure who sheâs bringing.
She once said that âher work is a source of confidence and personal power.â
And honestly? I feel the same.
I wouldn’t be who I am today without the people Iâve met â and letâs be clear:
Most of them, I met them⌠through or related to work.
Work is a relative word. It can mean many things.
But at its core, it simply means: you have a purpose.
If youâre in the service world, you know the feeling: âI helped someone today. I made someone smile.â
That alone can be deeply fulfilling.
Among young people, I often hear: âI need a break after school â definitely not ready to work yet.â
And yes, rest is important. But months of colourful travel? Does it really refill your soul?
Or does it eventually create a feeling of being⌠unneeded?
Thatâs what BeyoncĂŠ means â and I would even go a bit further:
What makes us truly happy â assuming our health is okay?
- Spending time with loved ones
- Practicing gratitude
- Taking our work seriously â because it brings meaning, service, and contribution.
Fitting in? Thatâs the fastest way to disappear.“
Welcome to the first BAR TALK â where icons get real.
