Last week, incubator and early-stage investment firm 500 Startups hosted an event it called "Aloha Friday", where food startups and other friends of the firm ate meals prepared by famous Hawaiian chef Roy Yamaguchi (founder of Roy's). 500 Startups founder Dave McClure admitted that the event was mostly an excuse to eat good food. But it was also an opportunity to talk about the intersection of food and tech. McClure actually spoke on the subject last year at the first Hawaii Food and Wine Festival (an event that Yamaguchi helps organize) and he plans to return this year with startups in tow to a fully-fledged tech track at the event.Source: http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Techcrunch/~3/CXdc1L6aTeY/
