Someone -- I'd suggest the event organizers -- should make a Foursquare ist of all the participating restaurants! And encourage people to check-in and write tips. Social media phase 1 is accomplished: people/orgs use tools and it's gone from cutting-edge to mostly mainstream. Now, the next step to take includes integration and using the tools with greater purpose.
A twitter hashtag promoted and supported would be wise, too. #HoCoFood is the easiest, if not necessarily specific to the event.
Stopped by Cafe de Paris for their Restaurant Week lunch yesterday. Once again they have one of if no the best "deals" of RW with a two course lunch for only $10.13. While the amount of food is well worth the money, the execution/flavor really lacks. The soup of the day was a pleasant beef barley that could have come from a can. The Alsatian tart was an odd piece of flatbread covered with swiss, bacon, red onion and either cottage cheese or ricotta (depending on which menu you believe)accompanied by bagged mesculun mix. The cannelloni was rescued from Chef Boyardee land by the slightly gamy, lamb-like meat filling. Finally the turkey pastrami sandwich would have cost $10 or more many places so from a value standpoint was a winner. Sadly the turkey tasted like deli ham and the shoestring frites were not well made.
All in all sadly I think this is what often plagues Cafe de Paris. The menus often read better than the food itself.
Perhaps it's only worth the money without being a real "deal".
