The Penn Alumni Club of Philadelphia is celebrating Chinese New Year by going to dim sum on Sunday, February 3rd, only one week before Chinese New Year. Think of dim sum as Chinese tapas. There is a huge selection of sweet and savory dishes and something for both vegetarians and meat lovers.

This event is great for anyone who is looking for an alternative to the typical brunch. Dim sum is affordable, fun, and always delicious! Sign up for the event here. See you at Joy Tsin Lau. I will be the one eating the turnip cakes.
