We Love Buford Highway hosts FEAST 2026: Threads of South Asia on Friday, August 28, 2026 from 6:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. at Spring Hall Events, 7130 Buford Highway NE. The annual signature fundraiser is ticketed, and early-bird packages are live on the organizer site while they last.

This year’s theme puts South Asia at the center of the corridor story. Local restaurateurs representing India, Bangladesh, and Pakistan shape the menu and the night’s through-line, with a happy-hour stretch of street-food starters, paired drinks and non-alcoholic options, then live performance, storytelling, music, and dance. Think curated evening, not an open street festival with free gates.

Proceeds support We Love Buford Highway’s work on small-business support, youth programs, arts, and corridor storytelling. Tickets are nonrefundable unless the event itself is canceled, so lock your plan on the Givebutter link from welovebuhi.org rather than waiting for walk-up inventory.

Our take: if you already eat your way down Buford Highway on weekends, this is the night that turns that habit into a seated cultural fundraiser. Pair it with Labor Day weekend’s Atlanta Halal World Fest in Duluth if you want a denser food-market follow-up the next week.

When: August 28, 2026 (6:00 p.m.–10:00 p.m.)
Where: Spring Hall Events, 7130 Buford Highway NE, Suite A-100, Doraville / Atlanta, GA

Confirm ticket tiers and any early-bird cutoffs on the We Love Buford Highway FEAST page before you go.

Velveting, explained as a Chinese kitchen technique

Velveting is the Chinese prep step that keeps stir-fry chicken and shrimp tender instead of rubbery: a cornstarch-and-oil coat, a rest, then a quick par-cook before the wok. Here is how it works and why diaspora cooks are finally seeing the name match the method.
