We celebrated the year of the pig by getting down on delicious dumplings, bottomless kumquat mimosas, and Chinese beers at the biggest Lunar New Year food festival in San Francisco — Dumpling Down!

Vendors from all over the Bay Area steamed, fried, baked, and sauced authentic Chinese dim sum classics like shumai, bao buns, and xiao lung bao — each filled with traditional delights like shrimp, pork, cabbage, and chives! Then we sunk our chopsticks into other Chinese treats! Onion pancakes, sesame balls, boba, and Taiwanese-style shaved ice cream also dotted the menus of all our favorite Asian food trucks.

Special thanks to Kollaboration SF Bay Area for coordinating local entertainment by Ryan Le, The Weabz, Michie, Chow Mane, and the Cal Vietnamese Student Association Lion Dancers!
