It seemed like this years BCB my good old friend Bastian Heuser wanted to make me a present. He asked me If I could do a speech on BCB on „How to open a bar“. I agreed.  As he send me later the Schedule, I was like:  „WOW“: Second day of BCB. Last Speech on Mixology Stage. Thats absolutely prime time. I love this final slot. The atmosphere is always very cool. Everybody is  a little bit in party mood. Its show time. I am fine with it. I have done dozen's of speeches on bar shows.

So, if you like to join us for a few good drinks and see 007 polishing the glasses (006 - how about ash t...

In der aktuellen Fizzz wird ein wenig Werbung für die kommende Barzone in Berlin 2010 gemacht. Das ist völlig in Ordnung. Schließlich ist barzone powered bei Fizzz. Kommt beides aus dem gleichen Haus, dem Meininger Verlag. In der aktuellen barzone Vorberichterstattung  gibt es unter anderem ein Interview mit Zlata Seidel „Barzone Management“.  Beim lesen des Textes musste ich ein wenig schmunzeln. Unter anderem ist dort zu lesen:   „Wie unterscheidet sich die barzone von anderen Branchenveranstaltungen? Zlata Seidel: Auch wenn andere gerne den Vergleich mit uns suchen: die barzone hat sich als Vorreiter positioniert, der die übrigen Veranstaltungen der Branche entscheiden prägt. Das gastronomische Know-how, das im Rahmen der barzone vermittelt wird, ist einzigartig und nirgendwo sonst kann sich der Besucher so geballt und umfassend über die aktuellen Trends und Management Tools informieren. ...Natürlich gibt es Nachahmer ...“ bla bla bla „Hossa die Waldfee“ schi...
