The Museum of Food and Drink (MOFAD) takes visitors on a learning adventure through the culture, history, science, production, and commerce of food and drink.

Located in Brooklyn, MOFAD's current exhibition is "Chow: Making the Chinese American Restaurant." "Chow" celebrates the birth and evolution of Chinese American restaurants, tracing their 170-year history and sparking conversation about food culture, immigration, and what it means to be American. With an exhibition visitors can see, touch, and taste, "Chow" includes a working fortune cookie machine, a stunning timeline of menus dating back to 1910, and tastings created by the country's most talented Chinese American chefs, including Doron Wong (Northern Tiger), Jonathan Wu (Fung Tu), Jeremiah Stone (Contra/Wildair), Irene Li (Mei Mei), and Lee Anne Wong (Koko Head Cafe).
