Dinner reception to recall last Foodie Tour to Korea

Whether or not you attended the Foodie Tour to Korea last month, you have the option of attending a closing dinner reception on Friday at the Waikiki Resort Hotel Orchid room at 7 p.m. The post-tour gathering is to distribute all the photographs taken on the trip, to reunite friends and to inform people interested in future tours. Another tour is being planned for late May or early June. Dinner is $35. Those interested can RSVP to me at jeffchung@kbfd.com.
