“Our goal is to make Chinese culture and cuisine more accessible to everyone in New York City, and this year's expanded schedule allows us to do just that," said Biubiu Xu, Founder of Dragon Fest.
This year, visitors can expect over 100 varieties of traditional, popular, and rare Chinese foods, including soup dumplings, dragon's beard candy, lotus root sandwich, sugar-coated chestnuts, grilled cold noodles, iron plate tofu, fried skewers, and milk cap tea, among others.
