The Perfect
Bite
Sample Like a Pro
Don't commit to one large dish! Most stalls at Kinistinâw Park offer sample-sized portions. Use the "Regional Flights" to taste 4 different vendors in one go—it's the best value for your tastebuds.
Stamps & Scales
Bring your Dragon Passport! Every purchase earns you a "Dragon Scale" stamp. Collect 5 scales to unlock an exclusive "Street Food Master" pin at the information booth near the Park Canopy.
The Bakery Hub
While the main stage is at the park, don't miss the bakery trails along the 97 St. Corridor. This is where you'll find the legendary "Dragon Scale" Pork Buns and fresh egg tarts that sell out by 2:00 PM.
Boba & Beyond
The festival can get hot! Look for the Jade Pavilion for mixology demos and limited-edition dragon fruit bubble tea. It’s the official hydration station for the 4-day takeover.
