Description

Join fellow Jefferson students for a private food tour of South Philadelphia's Asian cuisine!

Mention the words “South Philly” and almost everyone immediately pictures the Italian Market. Yet, nestled in and around the market is outstanding Asian cuisine. On this tour, we'll get a taste of various cultures and culinary traditions. As a special treat, this is the only tour in Philadelphia that is granted access to a Buddhist temple.

Philly's Asian Cuisine tour will visit:

  • A Thai restaurant to sample three delicious Thai appetizers in the lavishly decorated dining room.

  • A Vietnamese restaurant to enjoy a scrumptious and exquisitely made roasted pork Banh Mi (Vietnamese hoagie).

  • One of the area's best Indian restaurants to enjoy two fantastic appetizers and a delicious dessert.

  • A Buddhist temple to see its elaborate and ornate interior. There, we'll share some fascinating facts about the symbolism and meaning of ceremonial items. This is a rare opportunity you won't want to miss.
