About this activity
It is art, it is history, it is fun...but most of all, it's delicious! On the tour, time-permitting you will:
*Learn about the history, architecture, folklore, culture and food of America's largest Chinatown
*Visit a Taoist and Buddhist temple
*Enjoy a visit to a premier Chinese teashop
*See murals by local urban artists
*Nibble samples of freshly prepared fortune cookies while you see the fascinating process of making them.
*Peek into side streets and alleyways, following the heady scent of a Chinese herbal shop

& much more!

And, after the tour, if you choose, share a hosted luncheon, a "tasting menu" that includes a couple of 'dim sum' items followed by a popular entree, side dish and dessert at a traditional Chinese restaurant. Enjoy piping hot cups of tea, friendship and conversation.
