Join tablehopper.com’s Marcia Gagliardi and chef Arnold Eric Wong at the official SF Chefs opening night after party at E&O Trading Co. You’ll be able to globetrot the streets of Asia and tablehop to the choice sounds from DJ Jeffrey Paradise late into the night. The tasty spread of authentic Asian street food will include chicken adobo and rice from Adobo Hobo; Nombe will be grilling takoyaki; Turtle Tower will be serving their famous imperial rolls and spring rolls; Soul Cocina will be making Indian pani puri; Betelnut will offer Xinjiang cumin lamb skewers; host chef Arnold Eric Wong of E&O will be offering a variety of dishes (some of them will be vegetarian); Basil Canteen will be serving sakhoo saimu (Thai steamed tapioca dumplings of pork and peanuts wrapped in lettuce); and for dessert, there will be banana chai fritters by Azalina, and Asian-inspired ice creams and sorbets from DeLise Dessert Café. (The Seoul on Wheels truck will also be parked out front all day and night.) There will be top-notch (and hosted) cocktails from the Bon Vivants and the E&O bar team. It’s also your chance to pick up a signed copy of the tablehopper book!

All event proceeds (after expenses) will be donated to CHEFS (Conquering Homelessness through Employment in Food Service).
