Anyone going to Coffee Fest in NYC later this week (Mar 7 to Mar 9)?

I've never attended one of these types of events before and am thinking about attend either Mar 7 (Fri) or Mar 8 (Sat).

I'm coming from New Smyrna Beach, FL, and am looking forward to learning all I can. In my town, it's difficult to find great espresso, so being able to taste many at such an event is a very good opportunity for me. I own a Cafe and have just upgraded my Coffee Program with a new 2 Group La Marzocco PB, and I still very much have lots to learn.

Hey guys,

Wondering if anyone that attended CoffeeFest NYC earlier this month could provide some info on how it was, what was their favorite part or any neat things they saw/learnt? Also if it was a good event for strictly consumers or rather focused more on the commerce side of things?

Thanks!
