Do you wear Glass? Google Glass made huge waves a few years back when the Internet giant announced its development and limited release. Since that time, the focus of just about all of the big tech trade shows has been on the rising trend and excitement for wearable technology. But outside of consumer use, does wearable tech have application inside the restaurant business? This week’s guest believes it absolutely does.

In episode #033 of the Social Restaurant Podcast, I welcome Michael Atkinson back to the show. Michel is a restaurant technology entrepreneur and investor and the founder of FohBoh.com – the restaurant industries first dedicated social network. He is also a now officially a regular guest on the show and we’re delighted to have him back!

Michael and I discuss everything from Google Glass applications in restaurants and franchises to the University of Texas Food Tech Lab and the new Austin Food tech Incubator.
