A Wok Around Chinatown: Culinary and Cultural Walking Tour Led by a Chef
What a lovely time we had. Our guide is very knowledgeable and likable. First, we sat in a room in the Sun Yat-Sen garden for some cultural information, then we visited the garden. After, we walked in the street of Chinatown and visited a few shops and restaurants. We learnt quite a few things and tasted even more. Highly recommended.
