Industree Singles Out 'Stunners' for Being Dedicated, Hot

Well, this will generate some gossip today. Restaurant industry networking group Industree announced in a press release it is honoring the "brightest and most beautiful hospitality professionals" in the area.

The list, sort of in the vein of The Hill's 50 Most Beautiful rankings, was chosen by the group's team.
