Bobby Flay @ Borders Winter Park

Rhonda was in Borders a few weeks ago and saw a sign that said that Bobby Flay was going to be there on Sunday October 21 at 2PM. This was 3 days after the release of his new cook book Mesa Grill. Since I had eaten at the Mesa Grill on Las Vegas I wanted the cook book.

We arrived at Borders at 1:30 the line was already quite long. We bought the book and got in the line. It took till almost 3PM to get to the head of the line. Bobby was having a good time laughter erupted several times as people went through line. He thanked everyone personally and shook their hand for being there. It was an enjoyable time.
