Two restaurants, one reservation platform
How Bentang Bali and Yucca each gained a distinct guest experience while reservations and operations run on one shared technical foundation.
Omar Geerman
Bentang Bali and Yucca are two very different restaurants in Aruba. One experience centres on Indonesian flavours and hospitality; the other on seafood and a distinctive atmosphere of its own. Their websites could not feel like two versions of the same template. Behind the scenes, however, both needed one dependable way of working.
Two brands deserve two stories
I built each restaurant website around its own brand experience, with a separate visual direction, menu presentation, photography, and route to booking. Guests only see the restaurant they want to visit; the shared technology underneath stays out of sight.
Two expressive restaurants at the front. One system quietly doing its job behind them.
A reservation is more than a form
A booking touches several parts of the operation at once: availability, guest details, confirmation, restaurant alerts, and sometimes a later change or cancellation. Booking therefore became a shared product capability instead of a form rebuilt separately for every website.
- A shared reservation engine with rules for each restaurant.
- A separate database and branded email flow for every location.
- One central administration area for reservations from both restaurants.
- Secure decision links in email for approving and handling requests.
Operations are part of the experience too
Guests mainly care that booking is quick and clear. For the restaurant, the real work starts afterwards. The administration experience therefore needed the same attention as the public sites: see what arrived, identify the location, and understand which action is needed.
What went live
On 2 September, the renewed Bentang Bali, Yucca, and reservation-admin productions launched together. The result is not merely a set of websites, but a foundation that can support new locations or operational capabilities later without starting again.
