“It’s about understanding the humanity in service. When we serve a cup of tea, for instance, we are not just serving tea. We are presenting a sensual experience, served with perhaps a sprig from the tea bush, brought with a smile, and peacefully sipped, whilst watching the ocean. That’s a memory. We make memories for our guests from the minute they arrive to their departure.”
