    What does our Trend Spotting service involve?
    As part of Trend Spotting, we offer comprehensive monitoring and analysis of key gastronomy trends, including:

    • Identification of global and local trends: We continuously track changes in the global gastronomy market — from innovative culinary concepts and cooking techniques, through consumer dietary preferences (e.g., plant-based diets, healthy food, local products), to technological innovations (e.g., AI in gastronomy, new ordering systems). At the same time, we analyze how these global trends adapt to the specifics and needs of the Polish market.
    • Analysis and forecasting: We don’t just highlight what is "trending," but primarily analyze the potential of individual trends. We forecast which will persist longer and which are just fleeting fashions. This enables you to make informed investment decisions.
    • Adaptation and recommendations: We help you understand how specific trends can be adapted and implemented in your restaurant. We prepare personalized recommendations regarding changes in menu, decor, marketing strategy, or business model so your venue becomes synonymous with innovation.
    • Matching Guest needs and market capabilities: We ensure that our proposed solutions align not only with the latest trends but also respond to the real needs of your Guests and are feasible to implement within your market’s realities.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    What types of trends are considered in the Trend Spotting service?
    We consider a wide range of trends, both global and local, including:

    • Culinary trends: new flavors, cooking techniques, popular ingredients (e.g., fermentation, plant-based cuisine, premium street food).
    • Consumer preferences: dietary changes (e.g., veganism, flexitarianism, keto diet), growing interest in healthy food, local products, and ecology.
    • Technological trends: use of artificial intelligence, automation, new ordering and delivery systems, offer personalization.
    • Customer experience trends: new restaurant formats, casual dining, culinary storytelling, sustainability.
    • Management trends: modern business models, flexible work, team management innovations.

    Should I implement every new trend immediately in my restaurant?
    No, absolutely not. The key is strategic selection. At Bon Vivant Advisory (BVA), we help you distinguish between fleeting fads and long-term megatrends. We analyze whether a trend aligns with your gastronomy concept, meets your target group’s needs, and is feasible with your resources. The goal is to select trends with real growth potential that bring measurable benefits to your restaurant rather than unnecessary costs.

    What are the benefits of staying up-to-date with gastronomy trends?
    Investing in Trend Spotting and staying current with trends brings a range of key benefits:

    • Increased competitiveness: Your restaurant will be perceived as innovative and modern.
    • Better market fit: Your offer will meet current and future Guest needs, increasing their satisfaction.
    • Increased venue appeal: A fresh and up-to-date concept will attract new Customers.
    • Investment optimization: Informed decisions about implementing trends will help avoid costly mistakes.
    • Growth and innovation: You will be a leader, not a follower, strengthening your brand’s position in the market.

    How often should I monitor gastronomic trends? Due to the dynamic nature of the gastronomic market, we recommend continuous, active monitoring of trends. For most establishments, a monthly or quarterly in-depth analysis of key trends is sufficient to effectively adapt their offer and stay ahead of the competition. However, it is also worth keeping an eye on current events and news on an ongoing basis to quickly react to emerging micro-trends.

    Does Trend Spotting apply only to menu changes? No, Trend Spotting is a much broader concept that goes beyond just menu changes. It includes monitoring innovations in kitchen technology (e.g., new cooking methods, smart equipment), interior design and atmosphere (e.g., sustainable design, experiential concepts), marketing strategies (e.g., social media trends, influencer marketing), consumer preferences (e.g., dietary restrictions, ethical sourcing), and service models (e.g., delivery, takeaway, self-service). The goal is to comprehensively adapt your entire establishment to future challenges and opportunities.

    Can small restaurants also benefit from Trend Spotting? Absolutely! Trend Spotting is particularly important for small and medium-sized restaurants , as it allows them to effectively compete with larger chains and quickly adapt to market changes. Often, smaller establishments have greater flexibility in introducing new solutions and can more easily create a unique, niche offer that will attract specific groups of guests. Our service is tailored to the individual needs and capabilities of each client, regardless of the size of the establishment.

    How does Bon Vivant Advisory (BVA) help in adapting trends to my restaurant? Bon Vivant Advisory (BVA) doesn't just identify trends; we provide concrete recommendations and support in their implementation. We help you select trends that best fit your restaurant's profile and target audience. We then work with you to develop a detailed plan for their implementation – this may involve changes to the menu, interior design, marketing strategy, or staff training. Our goal is to ensure that the adaptation of trends is smooth, effective, and translates into real benefits for your business.
