This group is dedicated to building a community that helps keep each other in the know about what is going on in the restaurant industry in NYC. Monitoring trends in legislation, technology, management best practices, and the food and beverage industry in general is the main focus of our group. We encourage you to post news, gossip, resources & information, events, questions, ideas, suggestions and more, so long as they pertain to the hospitality industry.

This is a networking group for anyone that works in or with the On Premise world; restaurants, bars, clubs, lounges, etc. We invite waitstaff, bartenders, bouncers, hosts, owners, management, DJ's, chefs, event planners, promoters, and consultants... or those that want to break into the industry. As your organizer I will host events, share resources, and assist members as best I can. You can count on this as a great opportunity to interact with people like you. Damien

Bloggers and Food writers are early adopters. We often know better how to wield the powers of Facebook, Twitter, Yelp, Foodspotting, Untappd, Google Places, Bizzy and all the rest of the available social networks and apps, to help our favorite restaurants & bars connect to their community. The goal of this group is for us to meetup and share new ideas, success stories and hopefully find ways we can work together on new projects.
