      Anyone else going to the NRA food show this year in Chicago?

      http://show.restaurant.org/NRA11/public/enter.aspx

      I figured I could say hello to any fellow TouchArcadians that might be attending.

      The highlight of the show last year was a Coke machine with every flavor ever released. So if you're not going, that's what you're missing out on ;)

      I thought this would have something to do with a bunch of conservatives wielding rifles around..

      Common misconception.

      National Restaurant Association :)

      That's based in Chicago? Oh goodness. A NRifleA show would be much more appropriate there.

      I saw NBA, not NRA.....

      I need to get my eyes checked, then again I have NBA on the brain. What with the playoffs on right now and all.

      I actually need a new set of chef knives. As a chef my old ones are just battered and bruised. Dropped $500 for a beautiful set some 8 years ago.

      I also read it as NBA. Yeah but I heard about the coke machine. Seems like a pretty cool idea, but I really do not drink soda enough to care beyond its novelty.

      You usually leave with more free stuff than you can carry lol.

      If you're interested in buying something for your restaurant though, they scan your badge and then they'll call or email you a few weeks later.

      It's a pretty fun time actually. Beer tents, food samples, booth babes, and giveaways.

      I had attended many food shows, but nowadays in China, food is a disaster.
