Arepas for All

Okay, ignore the fact that I look less than masculine in this picture. (Ping was quick to point that out.) The important thing is that I'm enjoying a nice cup of Venezuelan espresso while Ping hangs on for dear life and Suru and Paul sit back and wait for the fireworks.

Here's the other side of the table. Yutian is certainly the ladies man. (B-day girl, Meritza, is third from left. Emily is to her right and Karen is on her left.)

Here's all of us together. Unfortunately, Ping looks like a growth protuding from the side of Karen's head, but what can you do.

Above are some photos from a wonderful lunch that our CG had to celebrate with our dear sister, Meritza, whose birthday was recently. The restaurant is an awesome Venezuelan eatery in the South End of Boston. Here's its website. We had Arepas, which are the main offerings on the lunch menu. I highly recommend the place. Meritza herself is Venezuelan, and since she seemed to like the food, it now has street cred with us.
