We went to Dr. P's friends Jimmy & Dee's wedding on May 26, 2012. The wedding was held at Jimmy's home in Arcadia.

Christmas Dinner at Jen & Peter's

We had a get-together dinner for Christmas at my friends Jen and Peter's house.



Just look at all that food! Everything was DELICIOUS!

Stephanie & Kenny's Wedding

We attended my friend Stephanie and Kenny's wedding at Kyoto Grand Hotel in Little Tokyo. The wedding was AWESOME!



The rooftop garden is adorable. Unfortunately, we missed the outdoor ceremony. Damn traffic on the 5!

Dinner at Jen and Peter's

Our friend Jen and Peter invited us over for BBQ dinner. They live two houses down from my parents' house. I knew Jen since I was 16. It was really funny how she ended up marrying a guy who lives two doors down the street. :-)


Ceviche

Jen made ceviche for appetizer. Lots of shrimp and fish. Very yummy.

It was my dear friend Sybil's birthday. She chose Honda-Ya as the place to have her birthday dinner. Our reservation was at 7:30pm on a Saturday night. The restaurant wasn't as busy as I thought it would be. At first we were seated at a table that was obviously way too small for 12 people (it could only sit 8 so I don't know why they gave us that table). We made a request to change to a bigger table, and they put several tables together in the tatami room for us. It was better that way because we felt almost like we had our private room. We ordered SO MUCH food. I wasn't able to get pictures for all the dishes (I think I only got maybe 1/5 of it, and the pictures were mostly blurry.... Damn alcohol!). But the night was more about friends than about food.


Cucumber

As soon as we sat down, we ordered a few pitchers of Kirin beer ($13.00/each). The complimentary salted cucumber was actually quite good with beer.
