40th Annual Ethnic Food Fair at Balboa Park
Exploring the Flavors of the World: A Global Feast at the Ethnic Food Fair
The House of Chamorros is excited to welcome Imåhen Taotao Tåno and the Guahan Grill for exciting and traditional performances and flavors from the islands. We look forward to welcoming everyone this weekend!
The Ethnic Food Fair at Balboa Park is an incredibly diverse and exciting event that showcases the very best of San Diego’s culinary offerings. With over 30 different cultures represented, attendees are treated to a veritable treasure trove of unique and delicious dishes.
From CHamoru food provided by Guahan Grill to Mexican tacos, from Thai stir-fries to Middle Eastern falafels, the Ethnic Food Fair has something for everyone. The event is the perfect opportunity to try new and exotic foods that you might not otherwise get to taste.
But it’s not just about the food. The Ethnic Food Fair is a celebration of diversity, culture, and community. It’s a chance to learn about the different traditions and customs of the people who call San Diego home.
So if you’re a foodie looking for an unforgettable culinary experience, or simply want to celebrate the vibrant diversity of our city, make sure to mark your calendar for the next Ethnic Food Fair at Balboa Park. You won’t be disappointed!
