Last week was all about gaining and sharing knowledge. I have started to write more in a new notebook I got recently, since my other one is falling apart. Did you actually know, if you get a hardcover notebook, you would get less smudging from the ink of your pen. I guess everyone learns something new everyday.
I went to another action this past week, but this time insead of protesting; we decided to pass out flyers. Its a way for the R.O.C to connect with the people passing down Capitol Grill and to tell them the reason why we are protesting against Darden. Protesting against an issue is not always picking up a sign and screamming chants. Sometimes it's all about passing around knowledge to others about your cause.
It was a bit of a challenge to pass out flyers, since people in the Chicago are always on the move but I did manage to pass out a couple of flyers to some people and pass around some knowledge about the R.O.C. I also want to thank you for anyone who watched us in our actions in the past and supporting us during our campaign. It takes more than the R.O.C to change the culinary world. It takes people from all over the city to support us through the good times and bad times.
Later on the week, I attended the 28th annual Printers Row LIT Fest to see some cooking demos from Chicago's best chefs. I saw Daisy Martinez, Rick Bayless, and Chris Costentino on the cooking stage of the book fair. Whats really signifigent to see professtionals doing demosrations is that I get a chance to see these celebrities doing there acctual professtion. I learn so much from them and I felt so lucky to see these legends in action. I got a chance to ask for advise from Christ Costentino and I felt so honored to be talking to a master of snout-to-tail cooking. He even got me a signiture on my new notebook. It was one of those days that made me being a culinary student a very lucky man.
So share some knowledge to others that you know and continue on gain knowledge as well.
