Ever wondered how the Chop Suey combo came about? How many ingredients are there in a Toisanese Joong? What’s a joong anyway? Which came first, pasta or Chinese noodles? How did they ever insert those fortunes into the fortune cookies? Who eats picked pomelo peels? Miss Bakery Mon Hei’s famous cocktail buns? Join host Val Tan as she travels through 100 years of Seattle’s Chinatown-International District (C-ID) in search of “A Taste Of Home, ” the only documentary anthology featuring five of the oldest Chinese American food establishments in the C-ID. See this neighborhood in a whole new perspective. Feast on delicious dishes created by its founding immigrants, explore the unique flavors of the C-ID, and find your taste of home.

** Your ticket to this screening gets you into the Opening Night Party, which kicks off at SIFF Cinema Egyptian immediately following the films.
