Foodbuzz Festival 2011

The beautiful Grand Hyatt in San Fran where FoodBuzz ’11 was held.

Ohh…yeah.

This group of ladies…were…absolutely AMAZING! From (top) left and then on bottom from left to right: Jessica, moi, Jessica, Joelen, Nikki, Krystal, and…I dunno.

Best latte…ever?

I learned how to pronounce endive (en-deeve) and had the best, most simple appetizer ever served on endive leaves. I can’t wait to reproduce it at home…stay tuned!

Kath and Sarah were on the Panel, as well as Jessica (How Sweet It Is – not pictured)

A great session on Lightroom and editing with Marc from No Recipes (who is…so wonderful and sincere and amazing! His photog style is so similar to mine, I had an instant connection with him.)

Scallops? Yes, please.

Jessica and Joelen

Andrea and I…meet again! 😀 And this time, I got to meet Andy, too! (Who is hil-a-rious).

Hilarious.

Watermelon Beer. Who’da thunk it?

Tyler Florence and I 😀

So fun. So pooped. 2am EST…crash.

See ya back in the flat lands.

    Wait, it’s not pronounced en-dive??

    Glad you had fun. Will you share some of the photo tips that you learned? I actually use photoshop and not lightroom, but I bet it’s similar.

    LOVED meeting you! We have to do it again! Safe travels home (although you’re probably there already, gloating, as I sit waiting for my flight at the airport…)

    And, what? No caption for the cowboy? ๐Ÿ˜‰

    Thanks for posting all these amazing pictures! I’m bummed that I was there and missed the tasting pavillion (which I heard had the best food). What was your favorite session?? I’m not sure if you remember me, but I’ve got your card. Check out my site if you get a chance at SarahCupcake.com. ๐Ÿ™‚

    Sounds like you had fun! I need to get me one of those latte and try some of that watermelon beer.

    I am so jealous! I’m glad you had such a great time…thanks for sharing!

    I’ll stick with en-dive because I’m uncivilized like that. Also, that Tyler Florence – what’s so great about him anyway? All he’s got is fame, wealth, the looks, cooking skills, flourishing businesses, and a down-to-earth personality (based on what everyone was saying that got to meet him). I mean, really, who cares about all that stuff?

    Oh, by the way, nice meeting you, too, Nicole! ๐Ÿ™‚

  19. November 14, 2011 / 9:50 pm

    I had an amazing time meeting you in San Fran! Thanks for the encouragement via Twitter on my Half this past Sunday, as well – mucho appreciated! ๐Ÿ™‚
