Extremely important: If you plan to attend, please reserve a hotel room as quickly as possible through the conference web site. In the next couple of days the hotel will release our reserved block of rooms, and the advertised price cannot be guaranteed. Please keep in mind that the day after our conference ends, 120,000 people are coming to Chicago for the Restaurant Convention, and the chance of finding a hotel room within a 20 mile radius from the meeting is a number of order ZERO.
