Inside the NRA Show 2026: Chicago, Royal Cup Coffee, and the Energy Behind Hospitality with Ashley Peeples

Description

Episode 198 – NRA Show Chicago Recap The National Restaurant Association Show always brings the food industry together at the highest level, and this year in Chicago was no exception. From nonstop movement on the show floor, to conversations with operators, chefs, manufacturers, and hospitality leaders from across the country, Episode 198 captures the energy, relationships, and momentum that continue to shape the future of foodservice. A huge thank you to Royal Cup Coffee & Tea for partnering with Walk-In Talk Media throughout the week and helping fuel the production from start to finish. What began as Pooch searching for "the package" across Chicago ultimately led right back to the Royal Cup booth and the cold brew powering the entire experience.
