In May 2020, at the height of the Covid pandemic, the Cactus Inn \u2013 which had been established in the Belle \u00c9toile shopping centre for 25 years \u2013 was forced to close its doors. In August 2023, a new food court concept opened in its place: G.A.N.G.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There has been a lot of talk about this ambitious and original project. We went to meet St\u00e9phanie Jauquet, Salvatore Barberio and Manu Konsbruck, the creators of this concept, to hear about a success story founded on friendship, entrepreneurial energy and a love of good produce.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s a real human adventure which illustrates that, with passion and hard work, even the craziest of dreams can come true.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

G.A.N.G. stands for G\u00e9n\u00e9rosit\u00e9 Amour Nourriture Go\u00fbt <\/em>(generosity, love, food and taste)!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It officially opened its doors in the Belle \u00c9toile shopping centre in Bertrange on 31 August 2023.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The concept was devised by two friends and restaurant owners who are well known in Luxembourg and passionate about their profession: St\u00e9phanie Jauquet and Salvatore Barberio. This 1800 m2<\/sup> food hall can accommodate up to 500 people and represents an investment of EUR 10 million.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are two restaurants (Grand Caf\u00e9 and Specto), a bar (Um plateau) and a food hall offering eight different types of cuisine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
