Suzanne and Eugene Go to Washington

By Michael Barnes | Saturday, October 15, 2011, 05:46 PM

Austin philanthropist Suzanne Deal Booth and social connector Eugene Sepulveda were among the guests at a rain-soaked state dinner at the White House on Thursday.

The dinner was thrown for Korean President Lee Myung-Bak and his wife, Kim Yoon-ok. Cocktails and hors d’oeuvres were served on the first floor of the White House, which was decorated in an autumnal theme. The American-accented menu included butternut squash bisque, green salad, Texas wagyu beef and chocolate cake.

After dinner, guests crossed the grand foyer into the State Dining Room for the evening’s entertainment that began with the Ahn Trio performing classical music, followed by Kansas City-based performer Janelle Moane.

CORRECTION: David Booth did not attend the White House state dinner.
