The Rennaissance Hotel & Convention Center in Schaumburg
was the venue for this month L'Amis d' Escoffier dinner hosted
by the Chicago Chefs of Cuisine.
The hotel is a great addition to the portfolio of properties in the
windy city with it's great food reputation.
The dinner itself was very well executed and a great experience.
It is a great property with an outstanding team delivering
memorable service and excellent food.
This month was the Agilysys User conference at the Las Vegas
Hilton, which I attended with Steve and several other managers
from PBC. It was very informative and brought us up to speed
with some of the developments in the industry and MMS in
particular.
The Ghost bar at the Palms Resort and Casino was the
venue for the closing reception. Located up the road from
the Rio this smaller resort has a hip and eclectic ambiance.
The ghost bar is situated on the 52nd floor with a great view
of the Rio and the strip beyond. The event was well
executed with very good food and great service.
