While naturally much of next week's conference for the International Association of Culinary Professionals is for professionals, the regular eating public isn't completely shut out of the chef-celeb spotting action. The newly revived Genoa, with former Vindalho chef David Anderson firmly manning the helm, is offering a special meal for post-IACP awards ceremony dining. The four courses cost $45 (normally dinner at Portland's seminal gourmet outpost is $55).
