Today I had an "escape lunch" between a trade show and uni life. First of all the Hotel and Catering Show in BIC was great. Good speakers such as Charles McIntyre from BU who talked about very interesting topic of trend of communal settings and design in restaurants. Many little details to think of which make all the difference in the dining experience and atmosphere! Another speaker that I enjoyed was Monica Or, who nailed the top 10 things to think about in order to run a successful hotel. Other than that the exhibitors were more for industry professionals looking for suppliers but well I didn't mind tasting local cheeses with local Ales and chatting about hand painted chocolates.

| The Crab Sandwich |
After that I went to test The Crab At Bournemouth, which was a nice surprise. Except the water added to my bill which costed practically the same as my wine. -10 points Crab@Bournemouth. But +10 for good food and service :) Gotta love a place which has a sandwich menu :D

And my dessert coffee I had by the sea when I took a first sunny walk of the spring. And well, this is a great place to live.
