Since opening Alinea, we’ve built and operated Next, The Aviary, and Roister, wrote and produced two award­-winning books, developed and implemented dynamically priced booking software for restaurants, as well as given talks on the culinary arts and business innovation around the world. Alinea - 3 Michelin Star Restaurant Next Restaurant - 1 Michelin Star Restaurant Our core thoughts on the guest experience and cuisine can be summed up more simply than one might imagine: Fun and Delicious. Implementing that goal, however, requires imagination, hard work, and a dedicated team of nearly 300 people. We are passionate about innovation in both the culinary arts and business and will continue to develop new restaurants, businesses, and do occasional consulting when unique, compelling opportunities can be created.
