| Truli Italian Food & Drink [Truli] was developed by global restaurant and bar concept creator and operator, Doug Zeif. Doug is the principal in The Concept Gurus, Next! Hospitality Advisors, Equal Measure Partners, Next Procure, & P3 Hospitality, founded back in April of 2013. “In early 2020, Zeif successfully launched High Dive Seafare & Spirits with acclaimed local Chef, Jeremy Bearman in West Palm Beach. Before starting his consulting firm, Doug spent almost a dozen years as a senior executive with a hotel & resort portfolio company owned by The Blackstone Group and spent several years as a gastronomy and concept consultant to many multi-national companies, including, Darden Restaurants, Karstadt Quelle, AG, and Gastro-Consulting in Germany; Grupo Zena and AnGrup in Spain. In addition, for almost a dozen years, in the very early stages, Doug was the seminal executive and second-in-command at the nationally famous The Cheesecake Factory, where he was responsible for creating The Cheesecake Factory’s universal appeal. Furthermore, Doug also executed a bevy of licensing, joint venture, and lease deals with many of the world’s foremost chefs and operators, including Suzanne Goin, Michel Richard, Gordon Ramsay, Masaharu Morimoto, David Burke, Michela Larson, Jereme Leung, Peter Kuravita, Serendipity 3, and Pim Techamunavivit to name a few. “As locals, we have been coming to Promenade at Coconut Creek since it opened in 2008. We love this center and are really excited to bring our Italian restaurant concept- Truli Italian Food & Drink, to the South Florida community,” mentioned Zeif. “This market is missing an Italian concept that is fairly priced, yet delicious, and with an atmosphere meant to invoke feelings of being on holiday in Italy. As Promenade at Coconut Creek is the epicenter of activity in Northern Broward County, we are thrilled to be opening here.” “We are excited to welcome Truli to Promenade at Coconut Creek,” mentioned Robert H. Spratt Jr., President of Hill Partners, Inc. “With Doug’s impeccable trajectory and Truli’s offerings, we are sure this will be a unique experience for the South Florida community and Truli a recipe for success.” Truli will be located beside Naked Taco and across from World of Beer. Its gastronomic proposition includes authentic Italian dishes, with prices and portion sizes that have been engineered to emphasize significant value. The Antipasti portion of the menu includes dishes such as the Smothered Cauliflower with pink Alfredo, the Bubbling Fontina & Gorgonzola Fonduta served with baby carrots, sweet Italian sausage, and crusty bread and the Roasted Limoncello Wings with a pepperoni sauce, among others. Truli’s individual 10” pizzas can be ordered gluten-free or with cauliflower crust and include favorites such as Funghi, White Clam, and Bacon or the Meatball, Pepperoni, and Sausage. Truli will give its diners the ultimate Create You Own (CYO) Pasta option. With endless selections, from the pasta to the sauce to the protein, make it your own, even if it’s vegan or vegetarian. Not in the mood for pasta? Try their Favorites, such as the Lasagne Sunday Style, the Lo-Carb-Onara, the Eggplant Parm, or the Short Rib Ravioli. We are sure you will keep coming back for more. The Dolce will be the perfect ending to any meal. Enjoy the Ricotta Cheesecake, with a hint of orange and homemade whipped cream; “A Jar of Limoncello Cream Cake”, with mascarpone cream, limoncello, and a graham cracker crust; or their must-try Tiramisu, with espresso-soaked ladyfingers, whipped cream, and a rich mascarpone. All dolci come with a special surprise from Doug & Jenny, the Managing Partner. This authentic Italian fare is rounded out by the bar’s carefully curated selection of wines and unique and creative cocktails. Cocktails such as Truli New Fashioned, the Limoncello Fizz, or the Hey Casanova, will have you singing, Mama Mia! The restaurant’s open, welcoming, and lively atmosphere will allow you to “Truli” be yourself and feel at home. This modern Italian trattoria & bar will be designed as a “get-together” locale, to enjoy the company of friends and family, while savoring authentic Italian cuisine. By combining the most genuine Italian traditions, with thoughtful and playful twists, this will Truli be a “next-gen” restaurant & bar. Welcome to your Italian vacation, in South Florida.
