I actually wrote a blog post about how my family went out to dinner once at this really good restaurant in the suburbs (they moved out of Chinatown), and we were practically the only Chinese people there. The biggest differences were what people ordered and how they ate (family style versus individual plates). It's just a different culture that people don't seem to know about at all.

There's a place next door to my apt that serves a LOT of Latinos and accordingly, the menu is in English, Spanish and Chinese... and it's pretty good food too...
