Join one prickly delivery-cat and his friends of mythological creatures in their daily lives working in a Chinese restaurant.
Chowdown is an exploration of Chinese culture and aesthetics in a cozy, urban setting. It is my way of reconnecting with my background and history as a Chinese-Canadian. By telling the story of mythological creatures that run a Chinese restaurant, I want to share a world that is familiar and comforting, yet charming and novel.
