The recent attack in Atlanta has left AAPI communities scared, angry and afraid. Please join us for our virtual vigil on April 3rd at 5 p.m. to honor the victims and show solidarity in opposition to AAPI hate. We would also like to take this opportunity to make our communities more visible and elevate our voice against racism and hate. This event is open to members of AAPI communities and allies, who undoubtedly need a space to grieve and heal together. Registration link

Welcome to our food workshop series, Advanced Ramen! The last workshop in the series will be Crispy Ramen with Veggies! It is a variation of the Chinese bird nest banquet dish. Instead of the bird nest, Sarah Kim-Lee, will make a pancake-like dish with ramen, adding various veggies on top which you can be creative with. This is an easy ramen variation that is perfect for you to use up leftovers, and clean out your fridge!
