Fun Franco Family Weekend

Fridays have always been a favorite day of the week and I've always wondered how it could get any better, but it has!  Every Friday at Le Cordon Bleu (LBC) they have "Buffet Friday".  Buffet Friday consists of the Catering Class preparing multiple spreads of food during the week and serving it on Fridays.  After each spread is graded by the Chef it is a free for all.  We just grab a plate and load up!  All they ask in return is for us (students/staff/faculty) to fill out comment cards.  (Which I love doing anyway!)  Cool perk of being in food school!

Buffet Friday was just the beginning of an awesome weekend.  I know it's not a "Portland Adventure", but worth documenting.  The Franco Family had our First Annual Franco Family Golf Tournament.  We held it at Jade Greens.  It was so much fun.  Here is a Family Pic of all of the players.


Afterwards we went to Tito George's house to celebrate Nino's birthday.  (We miss you, Nino!)  There we handed out awards and raffle prizes.  It was exactly what I had envisioned (actually better than), and I can't wait to do it again next year!
