May is Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month. What better way to celebrate the joy, pleasures and richness of numerous Asian cultures than with food?
Indeed, there’s no swifter way to someone’s heart than through the stomach. And this month, Legacy Health campuses will put on display a full array of culinary delights – some complex, some basic, some exotic and all of them delicious. A few offerings will even be inspired by personal family recipes.
The menus at different locations throughout the month is further testament to the cultures and histories that define and enrich our collective experience at Legacy, and of course, the grand experience that all of us share living in this country.
