BEST IN SHOW: Food On Demand 2023

In time for the 2023 Food On Demand Conference, PMQ publisher Steve Green reviews some impressive high-tech products from last year’s event.

BY STEVE GREEN

I went to my first Food On Demand Conference last year and quickly learned that it’s actually a pizza/restaurant technology conference and exhibition. Nearly all of the top restaurant technology companies were there. The event featured three days of well-moderated discussions and an exhibit hall with more restaurant technology than any show I’ve seen in our industry. Here are some examples of the products, services and knowledge you’ll find at the next Food On Demand event, taking place May 3 through 5 at The Cosmopolitan in Las Vegas.
