On January 5th and 6th we held the 2010 Instructor Conference here in Cary, NC. Between the two days of meetings and discussions we took a trip over to Chef Mario’s in Raleigh for some fun and team building.
As a group we prepared a 5 course meal that was fit for a king (not to mention feed 40 people). Menu items included:
- Prosciutto wrapped Shrimp
- Steakhouse Bruschetta
- Orange Glazed Salmon
- Mashed Potato Sweet Potato Swirl
- Pistachio Crusted Chicken Breast
- Berries in Pappillote
- Chocolate Mousse
A great time and meal was had by all. The highlight of evening for me had to be the unveiling of Carrot-Henge, developed by all of us on Team 4 (see below). The event at Chef Mario’s will definitely raise the bar for future conferences. A HUGE thanks to the Chef Mario’s Staff and the ASPE Crew who put the event together.

Sounds like fun and yum. Sorry I missed it.
It was such a hit I'm sure we'll do it again. Just be sure and bug David when he starts bringing up the next conference.
Thanks, Bill. It was great to finally meet you in person. I will give you a call next week to speak more about your blogging and social media initiatives.
