From savory dishes to sweet delicacies, the festival transformed the cafeteria into a bustling fair of flavors and aromas.
Students, teachers, and community members gathered to indulge in an array of cuisines, each a testament to its creators’ unique heritage and traditions.
The festival featured an impressive lineup of culinary delights, including mouth-watering flan from Puerto Rico, freshly made cannoli from Italy, cheese pancakes from Ukraine, and gimbap, a seaweed wrapped rice dish from Korea.
For many students, the event served as a platform to share their cultural heritage with their peers and foster a sense of pride in their identity.
