Asian Eats ATX

ASIAN EATS ATX

Asian Eats ATX is the innovative flagship event of the GAACC Foundation. The inaugural edition of the event was held on September 7th, 2024, with the second Asian Eats ATX occurring on April 19th, 2025.

 

Hundreds of foodies gathered at participating restaurant locations across the Greater Austin area to enjoy fantastic, Asian-inspired meals hosted by restauranteurs and private chefs, all to support a great local cause. After dinner, we partied at Asian Eats After Dark.

Funds raised during Asian Eats ATX and Asian Eats After Dark are distributed to thet year's Charity of Choice - a local Asian-oriented organization selected for its impact on Greater Austin's Asian communities. 

The 2024 Asian Eats ATX Charity of Choice was the Austin Asian Community Health Initiative (AACHI). In 2025, the Charity of Choice was Asian Texans for Justice
