Friends in Food

We just wrapped up our 2nd Ultimate Taste Test event for Our Awesome Planet and Rockwell! Since this was co-presented by Power Plant Mall so we were able to hold it at our fave events venue, the Rockwell Tent.It's always a pleasure for Creative Juice to stage this event for our friends, Anton and Rache. Not only because food events are always the most fun and full-filling (pun intended), but also because we make a lot of new friends in the food business, and also meet up with a lot of old friends.Everyday MomThe Blue ToqueKarla of The Plaza, they makes the best hamTim and lookalike Gary:)It is always also a family affair for those involved.Anton and his parents, who never fail to support him with theie presenceOur Mercato Centrale family, sans Rache (Anton's wife) who is either busy talking to the food suppliers or running after her boys.:)Reese with playmate Fortune, daughter of RJ and VanessaThere were more than 40 different food samples to try, and I just never have enough appetite to complete it.
