For three days, our industry has the run of Halls I-J of the
New Orleans Convention Center to shop hundreds of product and service companies
waiting to share their ideas, innovations and information. The EXPO is designed
specifically for our industry to help you become a more profitable and
efficient operator. It is one of the best benefits of your LRA membership.

Back for the second year is the Idea Zone, located right on
the show floor. These express presentations will provide you with valuable
information to help you become more profitable, success and inspired. Topics
range from perfect pairings of beef and wine, health care reform, building
guest loyalty, gluten free menus, sparkling wines and turning menu favorites
into healthy options and others. On Monday, the LRA SIF will host its annual
Safety Seminar for those workers’ comp participants needing to meet their
annual safety dividend criteria.
