The March 21st issue of Metro Vancouver featured coverage of the Social Empire event at Cassis Bistro on Pender Street. The Social Empire's Hostess, Frances Hui, and SSID Inc.'s President, Rajesh Taneja were featured in a photograph taken by Paul Duchart and an excerpt of the article read: "The Social Empire, a non-pretentious members only club meant to bring Vancouverites out of their usual social circles, packed the room with their last mingler at Cassis Bistro (420 W. Pender St.) last Tuesday, with the not-so-unusual (but always a hit) combination of free-flowing martinis and hors d’oeuvres to lubricate the conversation."
