2. Do the Optional Assignment (up to 2 points). For this optional assignment, you
are asked to curate a mini-exhibit for a display case in the Culinaria Kitchen. Select one food-related object that narrates the story of a fictional Chinese migrant in Calcutta, Jakarta, New York or Toronto. Your task is to prepare a short blurb of no more than 500 words, explaining where the object came from, who owned it, what they did with it, and how it helps us to better understand the foodways of the
Chinese diaspora in your chosen city. We will train you for this activity during
tutorials, where you may choose to do an analysis of the Hakka Odyssey Exhibition
