On-deev/ N-dive? Is There a Difference?
Rich Collins, founder and president of California Vegetable Specialities, the only producer of Belgian-style endive in the U.S. will show and explain how they differ in a highly informative session on this versatile member of the chicory family in San Antonio.
His presentation will be one of the five each attendee will experience in an afternoon of round robin updates from industry during CAFÉ’s 8th Annual Leadership Conference. |
Discover the Flavors of Puerto Rico
Master Chef Steve Jilleba will demonstrate the flavors of Puerto Rico during another of the round robin educational sessions. You’ll hear about (and taste) Soffritto, Picadillio, Pastiles, Alcapias, Arroz con Pollo as well as take home a DVD on Peru and Brazil!
Hollywood is Calling!
Do you know of someone whose dream job is to be a chocolatier? Their lives took another path, but their passion is still in the world of chocolate?
A new TV show, “The Moment” which will be hosted by Kurt Warner for USA Network is looking for:
- Individuals whose dream job is to be a chocolatier
- People who pursued a career as a chocolatier at some point in their lives but then something happened to force them to put that dream on hold and take up a different profession
- Applicants who are currently employed at a job that is not in chocolate. Obviously, many applicants may make their own chocolates and desserts, but this cannot be their main source of income.
To be considered, fill out an application on their website, www.mysticartpictures.com. Just click on the tab “Now Casting” and then scroll down to the show, “The Moment.”
(Please note: CAFÉ has gone onto the website and spoken with the agency conducting this search, but is not endorsing or recommending this beyond advising that anyone interested should conduct their own due diligence)
