Introducing Moments & Milestones

Welcome to Moments & Milestones, the journal of The 601 Group. This space is where we’ll document our journey of building a great and enduring hospitality business—one that redefines how people connect over food, shared experiences and welcoming spaces.

At The 601 Group, we believe hospitality is about more than just great food. It’s about the moments people share, the milestones they celebrate and the experiences that bring them together. Through The Local Epicurean, For Crêpe Sake, and Brown Butter Crêperie, we’re creating spaces where guests don’t just dine—they engage, learn and connect.

This blog will serve as a behind-the-scenes look at what it takes to build a business that endures over time. We’ll share our wins, our lessons and our evolving vision for the future. Over time, we’ll also explore broader insights on business, hospitality, leadership and more.

If you’re passionate about hospitality, entrepreneurship, or simply love great food and experiences, we invite you to follow along. The best stories in hospitality are built one moment at a time—this is ours.
