Governor Doesn’t Serve Giant Paella
April 6th, 2011 by flanewsA giant skillet of Paella fed lawmakers, lobbyists and regular folks at the state capitol today.
The Attorney General, Commissioner of Agriculture and Lt. Governor Jennifer Carroll helped serve the food as part of the Miami-Dade Days celebration. The governor traditionally serves the paella, but Governor Rick Scott was out of town. Carroll was more than happy to fill in.
“Anytime you’re feeding people, you’re going to draw a crowd. But this is special food from Miami-Dade. The cook, I was serving next to him, and he was out here all night long, preparing the meal. Which smells very good, but I haven’t tasted it yet,” said Carroll.
The huge batch of paella could have served three thousand people, but this year just under a thousand showed up to be fed.
