    Felincia Anggono founds the Indonesian Food Bazaar, now held monthly in St. James's parish house

    Felincia "Fefe" Anggono, a Chinese-Indonesian from Surabaya who left Indonesia after the 1998 riots against people of Chinese descent, founded the bazaar in 2011 out of longing for the food of home. Once a month it brings together around a dozen vendors, some traveling from as far as Virginia, Philadelphia, Connecticut or the Carolinas, serving dishes such as beef rendang, satay and bakso. Much of the money raised goes to areas of Indonesia struck by tsunamis and earthquakes.
