Craig Patterson, head barman, Gengis |

Launch the restaurant and bar and raise general awareness of the Gengis name among people living in the city. Position Gengis as inspiring a 'taste revolution' which offers a new experience in food and drink.

Develop a media campaign focusing on every aspect of the Gengis story - including investment, training and quality of service, food and drink. In particular invite food critics to review the restaurant/ bar. A second strand of the campaign involved setting up promotions with local newspapers and magazines.
