Bubble tea! Kimchi!
Hot pot!
It’s cool to be Asian right now.
While preparing a traditional hot pot onstage, Amanda reminisces with her audience about when it wasn’t so cool to be Asian, and delves into the complicated topic of cultural identity and appropriation through food and art. As pressure builds and the show comes crashing down around her, Amanda must come face to face with the question: What does it mean to be authentic, and does it even matter?
