Get Your Tickets for Craving Chinatown — A Taste of Culture Awaits
Craving Chinatown is back on Waverly Place, offering a unique chance to experience the rich culture of Chinatown through its food. Join us on Saturday, July 12, from 11am to 3pm for a flavorful journey through the heart of the neighborhood. Food has always been a vital part of Chinatown’s story, bringing people together across generations and preserving traditions that continue to thrive today.
For $15, you’ll explore the tastes that make Chinatown so special, with three dishes from local favorites and a bonus bite from one of this year’s Tasty Award winners. Every bite tells a story of tradition, community, and the small businesses that help keep Chinatown vibrant. Choose a morning or afternoon session when purchasing your ticket.
As an added treat, ticket holders can enter into a raffle for a chance to win a $25 gift card to one of this year’s Tasty Award-winning vendors.
Craving Chinatown is the second of our annual Waverly Place festivals, following the Chinatown Springtime Festival. These gatherings offer valuable opportunities for community connection, fostering a sense of belonging and pride among Chinatown residents while welcoming visitors from across the city and beyond. By bringing together local families, merchants, and cultural groups, Craving Chinatown helps sustain the vibrant and diverse spirit that defines this neighborhood.



Craving Chinatown is made possible thanks to our sponsor, the San Francisco Office of Economic & Workforce Development, and the support of our partners: Chinatown Merchants Association, Chinatown Merchants United Association, LionDanceMe, and Self-Help for the Elderly.
