Take a stroll back in time to learn about Little Tokyo’s rich food history! Join us for an educational walking and tasting tour led by Bill Watanabe and Mike Okamura of the Little Tokyo Historical Society highlighting some of Little Tokyo’s longest standing small businesses and culinary favorites such as imagawayaki and shabu shabu. From the birthplace of the fortune cookie to the first ramen noodle shop in the United States, these sites were integral in the making of our Little Tokyo community and Japanese American food landscape that we know today.

Your ticket includes the walking tour, food tastings at four locations, an event passport, and a special enamel pin!

This program is presented by Little Tokyo Community Council, Little Tokyo Historical Society, and the Japanese American National Museum as part of Go Little Tokyo’s 2022 Delicious Little Tokyo.
