*POLL* Asian/Chinese ?

[rh71]

This article kinda got me thinking... and since there's a large asian population here - I wanted to ask...

Just curious...

 

[imported_Tomato]

Can you add a "Both of the above" option?

Not that I do, but some people might.

I understand Cantonese, but speak very poorly... took half a semester of Mandarin in college, and will be taking more classes for it soon.

houston has a good china town... and a good viet neighborhood too... at least, by good, i mean better than austin's non-existant china town...

Ha Gau rock Aqua!! There's a place in Dallas that has a dim-sum buffet during the weekends....we always get tons of ha gau I could go for some gung zi mein right about now (I can't cook worth a crap)

I understand Cantonese, can't really speak much though

I'm quite the talker when it comes to food, otherwise its listen and watch cantonese movies.

Vancouver = excellent, american dollars go a long way.

"Fung Jau" is for you

Fung Jau is definatly a cultural experience for those who see it for the first time. Quite tasty.

I speak and understand CANTONESE but in CTown in NYC, it seems like mandarin is used more in places.

 

[Red Dawn]

I speak Bong Bong!

I stay away from the feet, just eat the ankle(?) part. Quite tasty - the sauce is.

 

[Cal166]

Well then i speak broken cantonese. Speaking too much english that am forgetting my cantonese.

Just be sure that you don't ask how much stuff costs in "real money" as they tend to take offense. Vancouver has some pretty decent greek joints too.

I barely speak Cantonese and i barely speak some other dilect from shan tou...

My parents are proud I rarely speak chinese anymore unless its with my grandparents and sometimes with my mom/dad but it would be 50/50 english/cantonese... lol

 

[rh71]

I'm pretty white-bread since I grew up living in the burbs where there are hardly any asians in any given neighborhood, but I think it's important that young guys like ourselves keep to the asian heritage at least a bit. Learn to speak some of it at least. My brother barely knows the basics and my grandparents rag on him for that for whatever reason. I think it'd be a sad state of affairs when one day our children can't even understand the language anymore...

...now back to some MetallicA.
