MORE CHANCES TO TOUR CHINATOWN WITH EBC THIS SUMMER
Come and experience Canada’s largest Chinatown this summer. For the months of July and August, we are offering our Chef Guided Chinatown Tours on both Saturdays and Wednesdays.
Local Chinese Canadian food experts Dora Ho or Stephanie Yuen will lead you through the storied blocks while you learn about the cuisine and customs of Vancouver’s Chinese community. If you want to truly experience Chinese dining, sign up for our optional Dim Sum lunch and enjoy one of our favorite restaurants for Dim Sum – under the tutelage of your experienced guide.
Dora and Stephanie will help you learn about the history of this unique area, but more importantly, understand this food culture that has truly shaped Vancouver, and continues to provide the backbone for our city’s pan-Asian cuisine. We will make our way to the heart of Chinatown with visits to herbal stores, meat shops, bakeries, green grocers and specialty stores – along with a variety of food sampling opportunities along the way.
