Attendees could dine on paella from Spain and sausage and pasta from Italy, and then satisfy one’s sweet tooth with an apple cake from Eastern Europe or a passion fruit mousse from Brazil. Almost every table offered a food or drink to sample as well as artifacts from that country.

Attendees were also treated to a performance of Irish step dancing, Chinese Yo-yo from student Adam Chan, and a traditional El Salvadorian dance. There were about a half dozen performances in total during the two-hour event, including Indian dancing by Amita Vasu and Tiara Ramesh.
