Come along on a fascinating tour of Chinatown visiting various Asian grocery stores, exploring and learning all about fresh Asian herbs, spices, condiments, exotic sweets and Asian vegetables. Find out where to purchase these goodies and also practical kitchen utensils at the best prices. Get to know the best Chinese restaurants in Chinatown that top Australian chefs, and even Jamie Oliver, rave about. Then, sit back, relax, and enjoy a very delicious traditional Peking Duck dinner with other equally sumptuous Cantonese dishes at one of the finest Chinese restaurants in Chinatown. Cost of tour includes the Chinatown tour with handouts and Peking Duck dinner.

Agenda

During this course the intention is that the following topics will be covered, but not necessarily in the order given. Due to the flexible nature of Adult Education classes, parts of the curriculum may be adapted to suit the needs of the class.

The purpose of the tour is to combine a learning experience for those who are interested to learn all about Asian cooking ingredients and implements and to know where to buy them at Asian grocery stores in Chinatown, at the very best prices, and, more deliciously, to experience one of the most delightful Chinese wonders, that of enjoying and eating a well-prepared traditional Peking Duck dinner by one of our very best Chinese restaurants in Chinatown.

Objectives

By the end of the workshop, the student will have:

Have a very good idea of Asian food and their ingredients and with the help of handouts, come to know and identify fresh Asian herbs, condiments, pastes and Asian vegetables. Furthermore, they will become familiar with the best Chinese restaurants in the vicinity of Chinatown and the dishes they are famous for. And best and certainly not the least, of all, experience the eating of a well-prepared Peking Duck dinner.
