To celebrate AANHPI Heritage Month, our LA office hosted a lunch featuring rice as the centerpiece of the many diverse dishes from across Asia and the Pacific Islands that are enjoyed with it. We made an effort to include examples of the cuisine from a wide range of regions: Central, East, South, Southeast, and Western Asia, as well as the Pacific Islands.
 
Many of us tried new tastes, sparking conversations about regional ingredients, flavors, and traditions. After lunch, we played a game identifying countries in that region on a map and discovered that some of us have a surprisingly strong knowledge of geography.
 
Thank you to everyone who contributed. It was a meaningful way to celebrate AANHPI heritage and spend time together away from our desks.
