IW&FS Seafood Event at the Bistro Bis, 2/10/2015

The Seafood Event of the IW&FS was held at Hotel Geroge's Bistro Bis on E Street in the North Capital, DC.  Our special guest for tonight's event was Andrew Jones, the President of the International Wine and Food Society of Americas.
 
Chaired by Joe Brodecki, the meal for this year's event at Bistro Bis was prepared by the proprietor Jeff Buben and his staff who are well familiar to the Society, and welcomed us back with open arms.

With special thanks to David Simpson for supplying the seafood products for the entire event.
