Pasadena Dumpling Festival at Pacific Asia Museum
Join us Saturday afternoon to recognize an integral part of Asian culture through one of its main culinary staples-the dumpling. This event is free to the public and will feature music, games, and a dumpling eating contest, co-sponsored by Pacific Asia Museum and the Dumpling Station truck.
Enjoy fresh dumplings and drinks in the beautiful museum courtyard! Peruse the galleries, the museum store and check out the Special Exhibitions. Admission to the museum is free throughout the event.
The competition will feature six contestants who will try to finish 50 dumplings within two minutes. The winner will receive a $50 VISA gift card, tee shirt and Pacific Asia Museum membership. Four contestants will be pre-selected by Dumpling Station via random email selection and the remaining participants will be chosen on site via a raffle drawing.
