Chicago is one of the top dining cities in the world. And it is leading in trends as well as execution, said Donnie Madia, partner of One Off Hospitality, the award-winning multiconcept operator that runs Blackbird, Big Star, The Violet Hour, The Publican and more, during a panel discussion at the National Restaurant Association Show. This year, dozens of foodservice operators from the commercial and noncommercial space kicked off the annual Show with a Saturday morning dine-around that visited several of Chicago's hottest new restaurants. The Taste the Trends tour, hosted by FoodService Director, Restaurant Business and Basic American Foods, showcased a number of actionable ideas for participants to bring back to their operations. Here are some of the top trends from this year's tasting tour.
