Always dreamed of dining on a cruise ship, but couldn't due to sea sickness? Now you have a choice. *Harbour* is a new seafood palace and bar helmed by a Michelin star chef and modeled after the inside of a luxury cruise ship. The opening is set for Monday, March 23rd at 290 Hudson Street, Soho New York.

**Implications** - In this busy age when so many consumers find it difficult to make time for lengthy vacations, products and services like this give them the unique opportunity to have a brief taste of a getaway without having to set aside a huge block of time to do so. There is definite appeal in the idea of efficient escapism, and no company should overlook that fact.
