We started 2023 with some due diligence work at Cancun and London to dive in to what’s resonating at the top travel destinations with the younger markets.

Funky Geisha, Cancun

London Heathrow

We’re going to extend the touchpoints that bistros in Cancun’s Playa Delfines and London’s Piccadilly Circus does so well that connects with the market here. Why? The majority of flights to Cancun come from Houston. Next… Gordon Ramsay’s #PlaneFood and #YoungGuns series sets the social tone and the culinary vibe on what’s engaging the Student-to-Young Grad market we’re aiming to develop a sweet spot for. — Chefpreneur Blaze Viriña for #PanofBrothers

#PanofBrothers

My brother Taylor and I are both cooks. He’s been the Exec Chef for 2 hotels and a restaurant in the area, meanwhile, I’m currently the Chef de Partie for a hotel at Hughes Landing. Our other brother Ron was a baker and a barista before joining the US Army. He’s now a sergeant and is coming back home and will be helping our new bistro venture.
Taylor and myself just have to help Ron adjust from oil pans to baking pans, though the efficiency he ran his depot for Fort Drum oughta help with getting orders thru quickly and with precision.
