Dim Sum and Chinese Rice Wine Tasting

 

Young Friends of International House and the National Association of Asian American Professionals mingled and networked over dim sum and rice wine under vibrant, traditional laterns and other decorations with IHouse resident scholars from around the world.  Two International House Chinese residents kicked the evening off by discussing the unique characteristics of rice wine and its history.  They then said a toast in Mandarin Chinese and everyone had their first cup of wine from Xiao Xing in mainland China.  Guests also learned the history of dim sum and its place in Chinese culture from a representative of Ocean Harbor Restaurant and watched preparation demonstration by an Ocean Harbor chef. 

Thank you to our sponsors: Assortment of dim sum provided by Ocean Harbor Restaurant. Beer was compliments of Tsing Tao.
