Was the CFFC After Party Worth the Year Long Wait?
It has been a long time coming, but finally, despite multiple setbacks the 2021 Chi Fan For Charity after party happened…and it was worth the wait.
In the spirit of CFFC, some friends and I met up with board members and Beijing foodie royalty Preston Thomas and Ana Lorenco for a quick dinner at one of Thomas’ favorite Beijing restaurants, Al Safir. We were treated to an exceptional meal of fluffy pita bread, grilled meat, falafel, hummus, tomato, pine nut spread, and so much more. I highly recommend checking out this wonderful eatery the next time you are in the mood for the Middle Eastern fair.

Right before our meal was served an epic hail storm hit. We were worried it might mean the end of the evening as the party was set to be outdoors at Roti by Flo’s beautiful patio. But the quick-thinking staff moved everything inside and despite the bad weather, Beijing’s big-hearted donors and foodies showed up to eat, drink and be merry. All this in an effort to raise money for 2021’s recipient, The Dandelion School.
