Creating Career Pathways

Through our partnership with the Boys and Girls Club of Boston, we support youth development and nurture the next generation of urban hospitality professionals. Our program creates career pathways for local talent through culinary training, paid internships, fellowships, and full-time opportunities.

Philanthropy

At the heart of our program is a commitment to investing in organizations that promote inclusive education, combat food insecurity, and foster entrepreneurial growth within the food industry. Supporting the local Boston community through food-driven initiatives is deeply ingrained in TCA’s core values and integral to our daily operations.

Local Entrepreneurship

Through partnerships with local small-batch suppliers, TCA offers guests authentic cultural flavors. We also collaborate with Commonwealth Kitchen, Boston’s food incubator, to share the vision that inclusive entrepreneurship can change the world.

Restaurant takeovers reinforce the mission to support and empower local culinary entrepreneurs by offering them the resources and platform to grow their businesses and share their authentic flavors with a broader audience.

“The Dumpling Daughter takeover at the BPL with the Catered Affair was truly EPIC. As a special guest at the Map Room Lounge, The Catered Affair staff were kind and welcoming and represented our brand with flying colors. We were honored to share our cuisine in such a beautiful and special venue. We are proud to be a Boston-born brand with roots for decades, continuously bringing people together through great hospitality and unique Chinese food.”
