Had the pleasure of spending the morning in Chinatown to promote the upcoming Chinatown Festival this weekend and to celebrate Chinatown’s 125th Anniversary. We made Steamed buns and ate a traditional Hong Kong breakfast…yummy! If you can, head to Chinatown this weekend – it’s a FREE family friendly event with food tastings, lion dancing, and kid-friendly activities!
