From: Around The World Cultural Food FestivalThe event is Admission Free, with plenty of traditional dishes and beverages available for purchase. A national dish is any country's culinary, and to a large extent, cultural identity.
Come enjoy delicious foods from around the world while watching a diverse folk show with singers and dancers from different countries, then take a break between meals and go shopping from our ethnic artisans and crafters participating in the festival.
Around The World Cultural Food Festival creates a Cultural and Educational Experience like no other in the DMV. Our restaurants do not only sell food; they showcase, educate and teach their culture through food. With only one (1) Food Vendor per country - we are carefully selecting the best of the best for our attendees! The festival delivers a once in a year experience in which our vendors are encouraged to present The Best of The Best from their countries.
