Program Synopsis:
Chinese food was the first Asian cuisine to become well known to mainstream America, first along the coasts and then in the heartland. Join culinary experts for a discussion of “Why Chinese Food?” moderated by renowned food writer Mimi Sheraton. Panelists will discuss the evolution of Chinese cuisine from Chop Suey joints to high-end cuisine, the shift to pan-Asian themes and other influences in Chinese cuisine and how current western interpretations of Chinese food are impacting contemporary cuisine in China. Mr. Spiller’s historical collection of Chinese menus will be displayed to underscore the dramatic changes that have occurred over time in Chinese cuisine, and the evening will be punctuated by a Dim Sum reception.
