LOL Random 5

Like I've said before, nothing beats the combination of family, food, and fun. This past week, I've been able to reunite with family and friends I haven't see in years, acquaint some cool folks, and connect with relatives I've never met. Recapping the fun-filled week:

Last Tuesday, Niece Linda was in town so we decided to meet up for lunch. I think it's been maybe 4 or 5 years since I've seen her. Catching up with family was nice.


Kona Calamari


Sushi and Salad


Macadamia Nut Chicken. A favorite.

Dinner at Tokyo Sushi on Wednesday with Niece Thuong, her fiance Nephew Hau, the sister, and some friends.

Dinner at Golden Harvest on Thursday with Vang, Ly, The Bride and Groom to be, and a few members of the bridal party.

Pre-Wedding Party Friday Night at The Bank.

With my Lovelies

Sister Phuong made banh beo Saturday Night. Too busy fixing myself a plate and ready to eat that I forgot to take a snapshot of the deliciousness! We headed to MGM that night with the nieces, nephews, and new found cousins. No Luck - Lost 15 buckaroos =( hehe I'm no risk taker..no gambler.

The Reception on Sunday. Congrats David and Linda!












I started taking pictures of the dishes, but halfway through the meal...everyone at our table already wandered off to greet family and friends.

Monday: Stay in to get as much sleep as possible.

Girls night out with Niece Thanh and Cousin Liz Tuesday night.

Dinner at Bar Louie


Angry Louie w/ Sriracha, fire sauce, fried jalapeno, and pepper jack. Yum! Tasted like a vietnamese style burger.


White Louie. Pizza was good, but loved the crust!


Loaded Tots. These were so good!

Walked over to Tin Fish for drinks and desert.


Cheers!


Cheesecake, Tiramisu, Mint Chocolate. Winner: Tiramisu

Bar Louie and Tin Fish are two of my favorite places now. Good food. Good prices. Awesome music.
