Golden Gate Fortune Cookie Factory

The Golden Gate Fortune Cookie Factory, established in 1962 and operating in a small storefront on Ross Alley, produces handmade fortune cookies that have become a Chinatown attraction. Visitors can watch the traditional hand-crimping process through the shop's windows and purchase freshly made cookies and personalized fortunes. The factory exemplifies small-scale artisanal food production tied to Chinatown's tourism and cultural identity.
