The year in review
And what a year it was-but before I go to try to predict the next year, I would like to share my top ten events related to our food service operation here in the Menomonnee Valley:
February - the casino closed (a first in its history) for one and a half day due to snow, yet we achieved record revenues for both the month and the quarter.
February - Dream Dance Steak leadership changes with Bryan Schmidt joining and Matt Baier taking the tall toque.
March – the first Reinhart Food Show and Culinary Salon takes place at the EXPO center.
May - the 2nd. Cook Chill workshop and HACCP review with State and local health inspectors.
June – Food & Beverage achieves a perfect score during the two day routine health inspection.
August – Farm to fork events in catering and Dream Dance Steak, featuring the auctioned championship lamb and pig from the Wisconsin State Fair, reception at the Governor’s Mansion.
November – The First March of Dimes Star Chefs Auction held at the Expo center with fifteen local chefs participating.
Getting ready for the "big night"
