As seen on “The Tonight Show,” “The Ellen DeGeneres Show”
& TV Food Network’s “The Best of…”

Join us for an insider’s tour of this vibrant community and learn about the history,     culture and food of Chinatown. Chef Joseph Poon's team will serve full lunch or   dinner. Your visit will include a Tai Chi demonstration, a Chinese vegetable carving lesson and walking tour of the chef’s community including stops at a fortune cookie factory, Chinese herbal medicine shop, Chinese place of worship, a Chinese bakery, Asian grocery store, fish market and more. (Stops vary depending upon timing.)

"What a spectacular tour! My husband and I felt as if we had uncovered

a hidden treasure. Chef Poon is truly amazing -- a chef, an inventor,

a dietician, an entertainer, and full of energy! He surprised us with gifts

and samples along the tour. It was certainly worth every penny!"

-- A. Lee, Baltimore, MD.

"I just wanted to thank you for such a fabulous tour! I go to Chinatown often but

now I feel like I've never really 'been' there until today. What a great

experience this was!" -- T. Novacich, Philadelphia, PA

"WOW!! What a truly fabulous, spectacular time we all had!! The scouts ate every

speck on their plates and really enjoyed every special place Joe took us.

We could have stayed with him for a few more hours.

He is certainly one special soul!" -- C. Gosser, Troop Leader

"I think this might have been truly life altering for my students, most of
whom rarely meet someone outside their culture and religion and who rarely,
if ever, have ventured to Center City, much less Chinatown.

Parents were saying that this was a once in a

lifetime experience."   -- L. Leff, teacher, Souderton Charter School
