Aramark Sports + Entertainment, a provider of food and beverage service to stadiums, arenas, convention centers and entertainment destinations, has introduced its "Aura" hospitality service, according to a press release. The San Antonio Spurs Agave Club has become the first Aura client.
Aura leverages Aramark's strategic partner Stephen Starr, the creative force behind Starr Restaurants, to develop menu and service standards.
As part of a longstanding collaboration with The Culinary Institute of America, Aramark has designed a training program for Aura front-of-house staff. All Aura culinarians must receive CIA ProChef certification, which provides skill validation and measures a chef's core culinary, managerial and financial acumen.
As the first curated space in the Aura portfolio, Aramark and its partners at Frost Bank Center, home of the San Antonio Spurs, are celebrating the grand opening of the Agave Club presented by SWBC. The club can seat up to 310 patrons and features upper- and lower-ledge seating, bar-style seating, dining tables, a private lounge area, multiple chef action stations, grazing and specialty item counters and an outdoor patio.
