Highlights
This experience blends food, history, and culture in a unique way. Led by Judy—a chef, historian, and award-winning culinary tourism entrepreneur—you’ll discover Vancouver’s Chinatown through her personal stories, family roots, and special access to heritage buildings often closed to the public. After exploring the neighborhood, enjoy a hands-on cooking experience featuring dumpling-making as the default option, or request a traditional Cantonese menu instead. It’s an immersive cultural journey that connects the food of Chinatown with its people, stories, and living history.

About Vancouver
Vancouver sits between mountains and the Pacific, a green, outdoorsy city of seawall walks, forested parks, beaches and diverse neighbourhoods.
Stanley Park, a vast forested peninsula beside downtown, is circled by the seawall, a waterside path loved by walkers and cyclists, and dotted with totem poles at Brockton Point. Granville Island's public market, artisan studios and theatres sit beneath a bridge across False Creek, and Gastown, the oldest neighbourhood, has cobbled streets and its famous steam clock.
Top-ranked sights in Vancouver: Stanley Park, Gastown, Granville Island.
