Thanksgiving Guide

Switch it up and get your Thanksgiving dishes in Chinatown this year!! From roast duck to fried rice, it’ll definitely be a memorable and delicious holiday meal.

We recommend opting for a roast meat (try roast duck), paired with side dishes like vegetables, dumplings, and fried rice from our local restaurants. Or if you’re looking to craft your own meal, drop by a local grocery store for fresh goods and supplies.
