BONUS EVENT SQUARES
Attend a Chinatown Cleanup organized by YEG Chinatown Re:VITA (on the second Saturday of each month)
Attend Togather Chinatown Arts Festival on Feb. 1 or 2
Visit a participating restaurant that is also a part of Chinatown Dining Week and get a stamp for the restaurant and for the event!
Bonus event squares act as one completed square on the passport so if you dine at 9 restaurants but have one event square stickered—that would equal 10 completed squares, the minimum number needed to submit for a chance to win prizes!
PICK UP A PASSPORT OR PRINT ONE!
How to get a passport:
Physical passports are available to pick up at all participating locations (while supplies last), but you can also print your own passport to participate in the challenge:
HOW TO SUBMIT PARTIAL AND COMPLETED PASSPORTS:
Submit your partial or completed passports for a chance to win!
When you complete (get stickers) for 10 locations on the passport, you can submit your progress to be entered for a 10-course meal at China Marble Restaurant.
When you complete 20 locations on the passport, you can submit your progress to be entered for a 10-course meal at Emperor’s Palace.
If you complete every single square on the passport, you can submit to be entered for a private Chinatown food tour.
Fill out this form to submit your passport progress!
Please only submit your progress when you’ve reached at least 10, 20, or all squares filled.
Winners will be announced in April 2025.
HOW TO SUBMIT DINING RECEIPTS FOR MONTHLY PRIZES:
Submit dining receipts for a chance to win!
If you’d like a chance to win monthly gift card prizes to Chinatown restaurants, you can submit dining receipts as you make your way through the participating passport restaurants, or if you’re dining at any restaurant in Chinatown from December 2024 to March 2025.
