Steve is off to Vancouver BC to check out Dim Sum in the suburb of Richmond, North America’s fastest growing Chinese community

Want something other than a Chinese Beer with your stir-fry?  May we suggest a Riesling?  Rob Hultman, from Heritage Wine Sellers, comes in to the test kitchen to share some varieties to pair with Chinese food.

It’s all about China this week… first, Rick tracks down some of the traditional dishes, discovering hot pots, donkey meat and Sichuan peppercorns, before meeting his doppelgänger, a chef bringing Mexican food back to his homeland.  Then Chicago’s Chinese food ambassador - chef Tony Hu - stops by the test kitchen for a Green Bean Challenge.  Want something other than a Chinese Beer with your stir-fry?  May we suggest a dry riesling?  Rob Hultman, from Heritage Wine Sellers, shares a few varieties to pair with Chinese food.  Steve is off to Vancouver, BC to check out Dim Sum in North America’s fastest growing Chinese community.  And a Final Bite with a treat found in most Chinatowns in America, the pork fat cookie.

Steve talks with Jessica Koslow, Chef and Owner at Sqirl in Los Angeles, about her love of making jams using local produce in unexpected ways; she'll also talk about the myriad of breakfast & lunch options at her Silver Lake cafe.
