(PRWEB) March 14, 2015

After shutting down its website in anticipation for relaunch, Johnny Cupcakes, the independent fashion brand with a recipe for success, is unveiling a new web experience today for its community at JohnnyCupcakes.com. From becoming a Johnny Cupcakes model to engaging with other Cupcakers, thousands of fans and customers alike can now virtually experience Johnny Cupcakes on a personal level.

Through extensive customer research, the brand discovered its passionate followers were most drawn to Johnny Cupcakes for its tightknit feeling of community, exclusivity and unique personality. These core elements have long been cornerstones of Johnny Cupcakes events, retail bakery environments and endless community surprises, but less prominent online, driving the brand to redevelop its digital presence to create a signature experience.

Community is the most important part of our brand, and everything we do is dedicated to creating a personal experience that hopefully makes people smile and laugh, said Johnny Earle, Head Baker and CEO for Johnny Cupcakes. While many brands struggle to engage customers, our community and social interactions have been at the heart of our brand from the start, and were leveraging these core values in exciting new ways online.

Marinus Restaurant Makes Waves with New Design/Culinary Experience

Carmel, CA (PRWEB) June 17, 2012

The stars are aligned for Bernardus Lodge’s signature restaurant – Marinus – to jump start a gravitational pull toward Carmel, Calif., and the kitchens of Chef Cal Stamenov. May 26 marked the debut of the award-winning restaurant fresh off a massive retool of both the interior design and culinary direction. Using the natural surroundings and artisans for inspiration, the newly minted restaurant has transformed its Old World charm into a vibrant, stylish and decidedly relaxed setting more suited to Stamenov’s style of cuisine.

Set on 26 acres of lush vineyards and swaying English lavender, Bernardus Lodge is a luxury hotel that is a study in gracious wine country estate living. The new interior design curated by Charlie Akwa of New York’s The Silver Peacock takes an outside-in approach, playing off the view through a wine glass: slender olive trees, sumptuous lavender, sweeping grapevines – all set against a classic Carmel sky. The look evokes an elegant yet relaxed feel.

Set against a warm backdrop, natural fabrics from Italy and Austria adorn the hand-crafted chairs, windows and dining tables in shades of sage and lavender, offset with burgundy and olive overtones. Table lighting has been reconfigured to spotlight Stamenov’s cuisine paired with the warm glow of the chandeliers. In the kitchen, the coveted four-seat Chef’s Table and nearby 12-seat Magnum Room will also debut a fresh interior design.

Few chefs can claim the toolbox Stamenov draws from: six organic acres stocked with produce and exotic spices; 250 varieties of fruit-bearing trees, bushes and vines; a local cache of foragers and fishermen; and veritable “A” list of top-shelf mentors – Alain Ducasse, Pierre Gagnaire, Masa Koboiashi, Jean-Louis Palladin and Michel Richard. Blending classical techniques with an eye to sustainability, Stamenov’s new menu reflects the essence of this enviable larder, rendered to a slow and methodical reduction.

Today’s fixation on foraging is old news at Marinus. The vegetable-forward “Farm & Foraged” a la carte menu delivers a delicate wild watercress and avocado salad with shaved branch celery, Meyer lemon confit and Australian finger lime for gluten-free diets, as well as entrees, including black chanterelle risotto, and caramelized onion and Swiss chard tortellini with green garlic, blond morels and grilled spring onions. The “Spring” menu puts a new spin on farm-to-fork with a 100-pace walk to one of three expanded organic gardens. From Buddaha’s hand citron to bronze fennel and frais du bois – not to mention Stamenov’s own stash of chickens – the menu spotlights this summer’s top rock stars, including Monterey Bay wild king salmon with English peas and celery root pur

Restaurant Furniture Canada and the Urban Sushi and Grill team-up to bring a Japanese fusion dining experience to the Canadian Prairie

Toronto, Ontario (PRWEB) June 18, 2012

Located in Emerald Park, a hamlet just outside the capital city of Regina, the cutting edge menu and sleek furnishings of the Urban Sushi and Grill have helped introduce a bit of Japan to the Canadian prairie.

Restaurant Furniture Canada Sales Representative Alberto C. gave the Urban Sushi and Grill’s Richard Kim the guidance he needed to turn his 2,000 square foot space into the successful Japanese fusion restaurant he envisioned.

“Richard had a vision for a stylish and elegant restaurant which gave the impression of being both modern and traditional, much like his menu. He wanted his customers to feel like they were being transferred to another time and place once they stepped inside the door. He really wanted to set himself apart from the competition by offering an exotic design that would give the feeling of a dining experience, rather than just a place to get food.”

As well as offering classic sushi rolls, sashimi, gyoza, noodle soups and grilled meats, the Urban Sushi and Grill specializes in fusion Japanese rolls which help bring traditional Japanese cuisine into the future by introducing an array of new and exciting flavors. Beautiful creations such as the Jungle Roll, Volcano Roll, Rainbow Roll and the Urban Tower are one of a kind works of art that require a setting worthy of their stature.

Both Richard and Alberto agreed that a mix of black tables, black chairs and black vinyl booths would provide the perfect backdrop for the colorful specialty rolls.

Richard opted for Restaurant Furniture Canada’s X Back Metal Chair with a black vinyl seat, which at $ 44 offers both the modern and classic look that he was looking for.

He chose the Mahogany/Black finish Reversible Table Tops to match the chairs. The table tops sell for $ 35 and are designed for the everyday rigors of commercial use despite their elegant appearance. Alberto advised Richard to select the 30 inch high X Prong Table Base to match his table tops. Constructed of cast iron, the table bases offer supreme durability at $ 36.

Richard completed the look with the 6 Channel Quick Ship Dining Booth in black vinyl. At $ 250, the booth is comfortable, durable, easy-to-clean and ships from Restaurant Furniture Canadas Toronto distribution center in two to three days.

The furniture that Richard chose for the Urban Sushi and Grill were a big success. He had the foresight to realize that with a restaurant of that nature, the interior design is just as important as the food. He didnt spend a lot of money, but he was able to seriously upgrade his venue by coming up with a clear vision and enlisting our advice to help him flesh it out, Alberto C. said.
