Details
Chinese X-mas dinner has become a ritual of comfort for all those who don’t celebrate the Christian holiday in the traditional sense. A meal for the displaced, Chinese food on Christmas has become a significant American experience for many.
Chef and artist Feng-Feng Yeh (the brainchild behind the Chinese Chorizo Festival) will be partnering with local Indigenous chef Rusty Ramirez to bring us a special Chinese X-mas dinner.
The dinner will be focused on Chiltepin’s native culinary heritage to the southwest while exploring how it can be utilized to evoke Chinese cuisine. This union of Indigenous and Chinese cuisine will tell an intersecting story of resilience of the peoples of Tucson.
