Our Western Chinese restaurants popped up across the prairies after the railway was built. These days, Chinese immigrants tend to be investing in a whole different kind of immigration. The young people who continue the family restaurants are choosing a more adventurous cuisine. Near me, I have Shanghai-style, with XLB Xiao Long Bao soup dumplings. Another place had more northern cuisine; there is a bao restaurant, specializing in steam buns, and there are a couple of dim sum restaurants.
I wish I had a giant bank account and more than one stomach.

@EllenInEdmonton@mstdn.ca @mel@nerdjoy.social @s1m0n4@ohai.social There are some run that way on the neighborhood by the young. Looking classy , mix of Asian , nice. But you cannot pretend to do Korean Fried Chicken or Bibimbap Korean style if it is not Korean. Our local deli ( with Korean GF😏
) explains it is almost impossible to get the real ingredients here. Gochujang is, but even that is lacking in all those wannabe Korean places
