Haus rules
From an Alpine lodge with farm-fresh appeal to Argentine openings revamping a city’s retail scene, here are the movers, shakers and makers catching our eye across the world.
Making an entrance
A collaborative exhibition between Fabrica and Airbnb at Salone del Mobile examines hospitality and hearty welcomes. Taking place at a magnificent private home, Monocle checks in on preparations for the exclusive event.
Waxing lyrical
From the Turkish candle-maker redefining holiday souvenirs to the travel trade shows reinventing the wheel, here is this month’s global round-up.
Moveable feast
Defying geography is a theme this month with Nordic style in Milan, a US coffee shop opening in Tokyo and gin from Berlin, creating a culinary cocktail that is truly cosmopolitan.
Swear by it
Simple food with a twist on tradition is the ethos of Jowett Yu’s new restaurant Ho Lee Fook. Pull up a seat – pork dumplings await.
All you can eat
From Perth’s farmers’ markets to Berlin’s coffee shops and Mexico City’s trendiest tables, small-scale food entrepreneurs are proving that flavour, flexibility and community can build lasting businesses.
Raw and the cooked
Japanese know-how and UK produce make Dinings a must for in-the-know eaters.
Hospitality lessons
Be it an airport lounge or a cinema, feeling at ease is hugely dependent on your surroundings. Monocle films meet with the design experts crafting the warmest welcomes.
Frontline services
Running a hotel is a challenge, let alone in a warzone. Monocle travels to Kabul, Tripoli and Mogadishu to visit three hotels that have strived to put hospitality first despite turbulent times.
Rare talent
Portuguese chef José Avillez is singing the praises of a simple classic – steak – at Café Lisboa, his restaurant in the city’s opera house.
