You go back to the parking lot and we drive to the Sichuan Cuisine Museum. Here, you can taste dozens of Chengdu's specialty snacks for lunch. After lunch, an English speaking guide will lead us to visit the museum and explain knowledge about Sichuan cuisine. Finally, we will learn to make three authentic Sichuan cuisine experiences.
