Interesting. Actually, i wasn't too impressed with Le Cheval (especially
with the claim on the restaurant guide that it was the best Vietnamese food
in Oakland)--yes, Orlando has *much* better Vietnamese places.

There was a Cambodian place i had dinner one night and liked it so much i
came back for lunch--it was excellent. Battambang, i believe it was called.

And i'll agree with others who've said that the hotel was a most excellent
host.

My general summary, though: This was the most Oriental food-themed
conference i've ever been to, no question.
