TASTING EXPERIENCE WITH THE "PORTLAND EXECS"
FEBRUARY 24, 2022 - MILWAUKIE FLORAL, MILWAUKIE OREGON
PHOTOS CHOCOLAT-E
Organized by Ed Chin, our chocolate ambassador, this tasting experience with the Portland Executives Association was... a success!
First the location. Milwaukie Floral is a great place, casual and definitely trendy. Beautiful plants and very refined gifts. The big table was set next to the "French Section", under French flag strings, how appropriate!
Then Cory, the owner. Warm, welcoming, charming and so organized. Even if it was our first meeting, she made us feel we were friends for years. Cory Beckman is on the middle, Kimberli Allen (left) and Ed Chin (right).
And finally, the "Portland Execs" crew! Norm was part of this association in his other business life and knew some of them, the reunion was warm and happy. But for me, it was the first time I was meeting with all of them and boy, like with Cory, what a warm and great welcoming. You need to remember that I'm coming from a country where arrogance is part of the business man/woman suit. Not here, not with those guys.
We had a great time and we think our guests did as well.
Thanks again to Ed, Cory and all the persons present!
