Kipling & Clark Event Profiled: Crain's Chicago Business!

We are big fans of Crain's Chicago Business - so we are thrilled to be profiled in Crain's Business of Life column. Reporter Shia Kapos writes about our terrific event at the famed French-Vietnamese restaurant Le Colonial last week.
Every year during Chinese Lunar New Year, we bring together our friends and colleagues and host the event; it is great fun. This year we not only enjoyed a fabulous five course meal, but I continued our tradition of reciting Lord Tennyson's "Ring Out, Wild Bells" poem -- always a propitious and declarative introduction into the new lunar new year!

In addition, my daughter Zennia, her cousin Sofia, and Toni Xu recited and sang their own poems and songs, all done with a transcending spirit of fun and celebration -- everyone enjoyed!!
Here's the profile in Crain's:


You will note that in the column, the cost of a luxury journey to Asia is referenced. One sidebar to this: depending on the destination, itinerary, and custom features, the cost of a Kipling & Clark journey to Asia ranges from $1,000 to $2,000 per couple, per day. The figure mentioned in the article is not correct.
