Eat. Talk. Connect.® – International Holiday Dinner
December 17 @ 5:45 pm - 8:00 pm
🌍 MANY CULTURES. MANY TRADITIONS. ONE SHARED TABLE.
A World of Traditions. An Evening of Connection.
This holiday season, Culture Encounters invites you to pull up a chair and experience the world through food, culture, and community at our International Holiday Dinner!
Take your taste buds on a journey across continents as we explore flavors and culinary traditions inspired by celebrations around the world, including Hanukkah, Lunar New Year, Diwali, Eid, Kwanzaa, Songkran, Christmas, and more.
Every culture has a story, and food has a beautiful way of bringing those stories to life. From cherished family recipes to traditions passed down through generations, each dish offers an opportunity to discover something new while celebrating what connects us.
Because while our traditions may be different, the joy of gathering, sharing a meal, and creating memories is something we all have in common.
✨ One evening. A world of flavors. Endless opportunities to connect.
