My Favorite Things

It would not be hyperbolic to say that serial entrepreneur Maneesh Goyal has a prescient sense for hospitality trends in the world’s most competitive markets. As the founder and CEO of Pineapple Co., Goyal, the son of Indian immigrants, oversaw the opening of New York’s highly rated Sona restaurant, followed by the relaunch of Temple Bar, a beloved watering hole for the city’s brightest lights. The popularity of these establishments no doubt owes something to the angel investor’s prior tenure running one of the world’s leading creative agencies, MKG. Herewith, Goyal—who’s preparing to launch a Sona-inspired tabletop line with his friend, actress Priyanka Chopra Jonas—reveals his high and low must-haves.
