by Matt SternerOct 15, 2024Updated Jul 14, 20261 min read
The third annual Chinese Chorizo Festival (CCF) is happening now until Sunday, November 20. This year’s festivities will include one-of-a-kind dishes, cocktails, and cultural programming at multiple locations. More than 25 participating restaurants and food vendors will be showcasing the overlooked story of Mexican and Chinese immigrant solidarity through the revival of the Chinese chorizo. Up to 30 pounds of Chinese chorizo (15 pounds of vegan mushroom-based and 15 pounds of pork-based) will be distributed to each of the participating restaurants. For a full list of every Chinese Chorizo Festival event, read more about it here. For more information, visit chinesechorizoproject.com and follow the Chinese Chorizo Project on Instagram.
