Executive Summary

Vision, Strategy, and Highlights

A supper club for adults offering artistic entertainment and fine cuisine is absent from the marketplace and appeals to America's largest and most affluent demographic: the over eighty million baby boomers who now seek a venue that satisfies their more sophisticated tastes in food and entertainment. Café Le Jazz Hot™ is designed to satisfy those needs.

Café Le Jazz Hot™ is for adults who've outgrown youth market "theme" night clubs and high-end restaurants serving rich food. This large market segment now craves a venue offering a complete night out that provides a romantic ambience, healthier cuisine, and truly artistic entertainment. Café Le Jazz Hot™ satisfies those demands.

Café Le Jazz Hot™ is unique and inviting. The decor is elegant, understated, and intimate. The menu features delicious fresh, healthy cuisine presented in original and innovative entrees. An impressive wine list and fine coffees, espressos, teas, and desserts are also offered. The music consists of select and gifted jazz musicians who perform in an acoustically treated environment. Customers can comfortably converse and socialize while the musicians perform, yet when they wish to listen, the acoustics are excellent and the music is original and creative. Café Le Jazz Hot™ provides a relaxed, intelligent, and stimulating evening out, and quickly becomes a sanctuary and safe haven for music lovers, artists, and executives who seek an intimate and sophisticated atmosphere in which they can relax, decompress, and socialize.

In addition to the dining room, performance area, and bar, additional discreet areas such as a lounge, a banquet room for private functions, and, where possible, a courtyard, will be incorporated into each facility to add variety, interest, and additional enjoyment for the clientele of each Café Le Jazz Hot™, as well as additional revenue streams for its shareholders.

The directors of Café Le Jazz Hot™ possess a rare and synergistic combination of expertise in several disciplines: restaurant operations, jazz, fine cuisine, fine wines, acoustics, on-location live recording, marketing, management, and human resources. This expertise allows us to design and manage truly extraordinary supper clubs. They are perhaps the only live music venues where the customers are not subordinate to the music.

Our expertise in live recording allows us to record and sell a CD of each "set" of an evening's performance to patrons. They can purchase a recording of a performance they attended which exists as a romantic memento of their evening. This performance may also have been simulcast on their local PBS or jazz station. This not only creates an additional revenue stream for the restaurant, but provides free publicity while creating excitement and involvement for the patron as well.

U.S. and International Opportunities

Europe and Japan have large jazz audiences, host many jazz festivals, and exist as excellent markets to extend the Café Le Jazz Hot™ design concept beyond U.S. borders. Like the U.S., they have aging populations seeking night clubs offering higher quality cuisine and truly artistic entertainment. Some well known jazz clubs offer franchises in multiple U.S. cities and also maintain an international presence in cities such as Paris, Milan, and Tokyo. Our advanced Design Concept and expertise in varied disciplines will make Café Le Jazz Hot very competitive abroad.
