## Resource

On the first day of each month we review the book of the month. The book is called Unreasonable Hospitality by Will Guidara. And I'll say this upfront — it may be the most useful book I've read this year for anyone who is in the business of managing assets, attracting capital, or building long-term relationships with tenants, investors, or partners. So let me tell you a little about Guidara's story. He co-owns Eleven Madison Park, the restaurant in Manhattan that climbed from obscurity to the number one restaurant in the world. That's not a subjective claim. In 2017, Eleven Madison Park was ranked first on the World's 50 Best Restaurants list. And the central thesis of this book is deceptively simple: the food alone didn't get them there. What got them there was a relentless, almost irrational commitment to making people feel something. ------------ **Real Estate Espresso Podcast:** Spotify: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast]( https://open.spotify.com/show/3GvtwRmTq4r3es8cbw8jW0?si=c75ea506a6694ef1 ) iTunes: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast]( https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/the-real-estate-espresso-podcast/id1340482613 ) Website: [ www.victorjm.com ]( http://www.victorjm.com ) LinkedIn: [Victor Menasce]( http://www.linkedin.com/in/vmenasce ) YouTube: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast]( http://www.youtube.com/@victorjmenasce6734 ) Facebook: [ www.facebook.com/realestateespresso](http://www.facebook.com/realestateespresso) Email: [ podcast@victorjm.com ](mailto: podcast@victorjm.com ) **Y Street Capital:** Website: [ www.ystreetcapital.com ]( http://www.ystreetcapital.com ) Facebook: [ www.facebook.com/YStreetCapital](https://www.facebook.com/YStreetCapital) Instagram: [@ystreetcapital]( http://www.instagram.com/ystreetcapital )
