I knew Seattle had a large Asian influence, but was intrigued by findings like the Filipino community in Las Vegas and the Vietnamese in Houston. Hi Pam,

Hello, Seattle! Not only do we have the lovely remodeled Wing Luke Asian Museum, a new Chinatown gate, the Seattle Asian Art Museum, we've also go great places to eat Cambodian, Vietnamese, Japanese, Thai, Indian, Korean... and a zillion festivals to attend too. A-HEM! Vancouver, just north of the border, also awesome. They don't call it Hongcouver for nothing, though really, it's Richmond,just south of Vancouver that's got the real Asia flair. A-hem!
