Last 3 days have been a fun ride. Friday it was mostly work, and a night out with John Jane and Wayne. We went to Koreatown, thinking that we were going to try this new restaurant that had $10 all-you-can-eat Korean BBQ, then found out there were probably 100 others who were also waiting to get in. So we tried to hang, but the line was just not moving. After 15 minutes of non-activity, we decided to bail and we drove to another Korean BBQ restaurant. By the way, there are so many Korean BBQ restaurants in the area, it's almost dumb to stay at one place and wait more than an hour to get fed. Castle was a smaller, and lesser-known all-you-can-eat Korean BBQ buffet restaurant, but the food and the service were excellent. We had their cheapest combo, and it was great. That was just $9.99 per person too! We had a great time there. Yesterday was Jen and Steve's big day. The wedding went on smoothly, and Jen couldn't look more beautiful. After the wedding some went to the reception right away, some drove to Pasadena for the 2nd reception. I was responsible for the sign-in table and greeting guests. It was an elegant setting, and everyone cheered when the new bride and groom came back. People were laughing a lot, taking a ton of pictures, and definitely drinking non-stop. The food was not perfect, but everything else was. From the speech to the crowds' reactions, from the parents to every friend and colleague, we were all moved by the love and the entire production Jen and Steve were able to pull off :) Congratulations!
Today I slept in mostly. I didn't get up 'til 11 AM. I went to the gym, and came back with a Subway sandwich. It had been so long since I visited that Subway. I ordered something new on the menu, Buffalo Chicken, it was not bad. The rest of the afternoon I napped, made a couple of international phone calls for work, and finally went to have dinner with PK. We met up with Dave Jose Linda and Stephane. Mandarin Deli took care of us and made every dish outstanding. We were very happy to introduce this great small restaurant to the new couple of the group. Later we went to Marie Calendar's to pick up 2 pies, because they were on sale for $6.99 each. We got a pecan pie and a rhubarb pie, and enjoyed them at Jose's place. This weekend was really fun and jam-packed, and I have to say, I wouldn't want to have it any other way.
