So many hospitality workers and businesses have be

So many hospitality workers and businesses have been impacted by the fires surrounding Los Angeles and are in need of emergency assistance to address immediate and longer-term needs. @AnotherRoundAnotherRally has established a disaster relief fund to distribute aid directly to hospitality workers. “As our beautiful hospitality family in Los Angeles watches our incredible City of Angels burn, the devastation and heartbreak can seem insurmountable,” says ARAR founder Amanda Gunderson (@gundomonkey). “If you are looking for a way to help the hospitality workers, who are the beating heart of this great city, donate to our disaster relief fund. Funds will be distributed directly to hospitality workers who have experienced this unimaginably tragic and catastrophic loss.”

You can donate to the ARAR fund via the link in our bio, and keep an eye on our stories where we’re also sharing info on other fundraisers for the LA hospitality community.

@TheAladdinSaneDetroit, one of this year’s Imbibe 75 Places to Watch, is tucked beneath the restored, 1920s-era Book Tower in downtown Detroit. Among the space’s challenges were low ceilings, a lack of windows, and a confined footprint wedged between a staircase and the building’s foundation walls, but the teams at @stokesarchitecture and @method.co_ decided to lean into the constraints, taking cues from Tokyo listening bars while enlivening the space with the 1970s-era theatricality of David Bowie, with whom Detroit has an enduring love affair. Head to the link in our bio to read more from Caroline Pardilla (@carolineoncocktails) about the bar’s interior and menu design.
