Raised in Taipei, food editor, stylist, and chef Jessie YuChen grew up drinking cheese tea, the foamy sweet and salty drink that, according to Eater, originated in the night market stands of Taiwan around 2010. Nowadays, cheese tea – and other foods Jessie grew up eating like popcorn chicken – are trending in shops all over New York City.
Join Jessie for a culinary journey that travels from the Night Markets of Taipei to Midtown Manhattan in search of the viral foods that have traversed oceans and time. Jessie will lead a cooking demonstration and guests will have the chance to taste several iconic Taiwanese Night Market dishes, all washed down with Taiwanese craft beer from Ugly Half Beer.
