The real purpose of the party seemed to be a fabulous free food event...
...with people in long lines in the two "light courts" on the main floor.
The range of food and drink was amazing...
...from fancy sushi...
...to hof brau sandwiches...
...to glamour cocktails.
Heck, they were even feeding Walter, the infamous singing public commenter at Board of Supervisors meetings.
darnit!
ReplyDeleteI forgot to mark this on my calendar. Last year they had some really great stuff at the food event. I even found a new restaurant on Irving Street as a result (That I still need to write a review for).
Now there's a spread. I didn't get a picture for my ongoing series on what we feed the volunteers, but I did a training last week in Newark, New Jersey and provided what the locals thought was appropriate: Dunkin' Donut holes. Yuck!
ReplyDeleteI hope the real purpose of the party was to meet new people, the person on the first free food photo is awfully cute.
ReplyDeleteso range was good - how about the taste? I agree with Ced about the cuteness factor. Poor guy in the next picture down caught mid munch didn't fare so well.
ReplyDeleteDear Sam and Ced: The cute people were all related to the food industry. The politicians and "small businesspeople" weren't in quite the same category.
ReplyDeleteAnd I was much too busy a photojournalist to be standing in line waiting for a snack so I have no idea about the taste factor, but I have a feeling it was all fab.
