Most full-service hotels offer a heightened level of service for their guests but those services are utilized by a small percentage of the clientele. There are many cases where the cost of a concierge is not justified but there is an expectation. So, guest services people often trade off the role so that someone is always available during peak hours. Hotel bars can be profitable if they are positioned properly and used by locals. Room service is always a gamble. To have personnel available for extended hours is a huge labor cost to be utilized so infrequently.

Classical cuisines roots are in France. Two main events were responsible for the U.S.'s culinary legacy from France. The French revolution in 1793-French chefs lost jobs or had the freedom to look for new jobs abroad. Thomas Jefferson spent five years as an envoy to France and brought a French chef to the White House when he became president. This stimulated interest in French cuisine and enticed U.S restaurateurs to offer better quality and more interesting cuisine. Carme is credited as being the founder of classical cuisine and Escoffier was known as the chef of kings.
