Hungry Tiger Food Tour returns to Memphis, celebrating Asian American and Pacific Islander cuisine
"[Memphis] had not had a whole monthlong celebration, to my knowledge, ever since the Heritage Month was established nationally in 1992," Laybourn said. "So, I thought, 'How do we introduce a new idea?' Food, to me, is one of those universal ways that we can connect with one another, spend time with one another, but also learn from one another."
The tour kicks off on May 1 with a happy hour at Downtown's Caption by Hyatt Beale Street Memphis. It continues through May 30.
Participating restaurants include Amrutha Vilas, New Manila Restaurant, Good Fortune, Tuyen's Asian Bistro, and Kura House.
