Event Overview

Have you ever considered travelling to another part of the world to explore and learn about another culture through food? If so, you’re in luck!

This class will whisk you to the sights, smells and tastes of Chinese cuisine and culture in Chicago's Chinatown. You’ll experience the delicious dim sum offerings as they fly by on traditional carts and get a tour of the neighborhood to learn about:

sculptures.
- The Chinatown mural, made of hand-painted tiles depicting the history of the Chinese immigration
to the United States.
- Chinatown Square, filled with sculptures of the animals of the Chinese Zodiac.
- Wentworth Avenue, the historic commercial district, filled with shops, restaurants, and historic
landmarks.

What to bring

This was a great event. I'd never been to Chinatown and never had Dim Sum, so it was a great first experience for both.
