Tastes of the World





















Preparations for this year's Dulwich International Day began, I imagine, shortly after last year's event ended. The parents' group, Friends of Dulwich, does a great job organizing the fundraising event. It is a fabulous day of food, music, arts and crafts, and games. Each country that is represented at the College is responsible for organizing a booth, complete with traditional food and trinkets. More than thirty countries put their best tastes forward and close to 150,000RMB was raised.

I worked the drink booth and the USA booth, but had plenty of time to sample foods from Mexico, Austria, Korea and France. The UK booth had an advantage over the rest of the booths as it was somehow able to sell an 'adult only' beverage. I was going to boycott them, but couldn't resist trying my first Pimm's.
