Uyghur for Foodies
Uyghurs eat this.
Who are the Uyghurs? And what do they eat?
1. The Uyghurs are a Central Asian, Turkic-speaking people who live mostly in northwestern China.
2. They eat phenomenal food that’s quite difficult to come by in the U.S.
Join us for a traditional Uyghur (prounounced we-grrr) picnic of naan, tea, and hand-pulled noodles, made fresh by a Fairfax-based Uyghur cook. After a basic introduction to the Uyghur language, your teacher, Ashley, will use food to explain key cultural and language-related concepts.
Please bring $5 to cover food and come hungry. Please note that there will be no vegetarian dishes.
