Has anyone eaten at the hotel restaurant? I’m hoping it’s good so we can conduct meetings there over some good food.
The restaurant is mighty tasty! I know you dont eat fish, but if you did I would highly recommend the fish and chips.
Thanks, Mona. I’m looking forward to giving it a try and I’ll let everyone know what the veg. situation is there.
I’m looking forward to the conference and all of the good fellowship, brainstorming, and planning that takes place and it’s always better with food and friends.
