Two unique Chinatowns of North America are the focus of this deep dive into Chinese cultural heritage First we go to Vancouver for a culinary tour of this century's old community. At a local tea shop, she learns to make two deceptively simple appetizers cooked with tea. She samples Dim Sum at a shop owned by an opera singing second generation Chinese local. Then local Judy Lam Maxwell shows her a Chinese dumpling mashup filled with Korean Bulgogi. Back at home, Sara's old Wok Queen Grace Young describes her efforts to preserve New York's Chinatown as she and Sara make meat candy - a melt in your mouth BBQ Pork that is the perfect ingredient for Grace's Yangchow fried rice.
