      I had the beef.\u00a0 Like all hotel food for galas it was okay. Luckily at the table we had some papaya salad leftover!!<\/p>\n

      \"\"<\/p>\n

      There I fixed it. Now it’s like a good ol Lao meal.<\/p>\n

      It was nice to sit and eat for once! Thanks to euy Kayla for the seat, and for preparing the Lao food that I think everyone was impressed it.\u00a0 We’ve been attending and participating in this annual gala for a long time now, and it’s good to see new faces, new groups, and the next class of leaders for our community here in Georgia.\u00a0 I know the census shows AAPI’s in Georgia to be around half a million(?), but it sure does seem a bit more than that.<\/p>\n

      \"\"<\/p>\n

      And yes I got to be in a photo.\u00a0 Just one.\u00a0 Thanks to Malay for handling my boat anchor of a camera, a classic D700 + 24-70mm 2.8 + Speedlight.\u00a0 A combo that I decided at the last minute to bring for old times sake.\u00a0 It rendered hot and overexposed many frames, which required lots of editing and retouching, but the Nikon still produces great sharp colorful photos with deep blacks and contrast that other camera kits rarely deliver.\u00a0<\/p>\n
