Scenes From a Vacation: Blogger Lunch at Changsho

On our vacation, we had the good fortune of catching up with several bloggers from the Cambridge area thanks to the work of Betsy Devine, who organized a lunch at the Chinese restaurant Changsho. Here’s Betsy with a squishy cow I gave her, taking care of the bill:

All Betsy needs is a squishy cow and some cold hard cash.

We were also happy to catch up with Suw Charman, who came over from London to attend the Enterprise 2.0 Conference taking place that week in Boston. Here she is, taking a shot of me:

We were joined by a number of locals…

…some of whom are included in this shot:

One minor gripe: while Changsho’s dinner selection is excellent — the Ginger Ninja and I have had many excellent meals there, including our wedding rehearsal dinner — the lunch buffet isn’t up to their evening meal standards. In fact, it’s no better than your typical Chinese all-you-can-eat buffet place. Not there’s anything wrong with those places; it’s just that it’s Changsho’s dinner food sets certain expectations.

However, the point of this get-together was the people. It’s been a good long time since we’ve seen them, so we’re glad that we had the chance to catch up.
