Chinese Table Manners @ Sun Wah BBQ

Interpreted by Kelly Chang,
Co-owner and general manager of Sun Wah BBQ

Sun Wah BBQ was founded by Mr. Cheng who immigrated from China. His American
born children who are now Sun Wah’s co-owners: son Michael and daughters Kelly and
Chef Laura, who trained at Kendall College. The children have one foot in Chinese
culture and one foot in American, allowing them to convey Chinese table manners as
practiced at home.

Kelly proposed this talk over a year ago. Since then, she has been testing her
knowledge with Chinese elders who have affirmed she is more knowledgeable than
they expected.

Please arrive early to allow the program to proceed on time. If you wish to take Chinese
BBQ home, order it upon arrival. 

This will be an intimate meal to allow discussion and demonstration.
