What a Treat! Immigrant Chef Invites Justice Sotomayor to Dine

The Washington Post had a story today about how Francisco Ferrufino, the recently promoted Executive Chef of Meridian Pint (Columbia Heights, Washington DC), invited Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor to dine in the restaurant. She accepted and brought three of her friends, including Mexican opera star Carla Dirlikov. What a treat! 

My only quibble with the story was that Justice Sotomayor’s parents were described as “Puerto Rican immigrants.” Puerto Rico is a U.S. territory and thus, people from there/born there are U.S. citizens and not immigrants when they move to one of the fifty states.
