Default Ethnic food in Cheltenham/ Jenkintown/ Abington?

Can people please recommend any good ethnic food in Cheltenham/ Jenkintown/ Abington/ Glenside - anywhere around there? There are tons of Korean restaurants, I just don't know which ones are good. Looking for Indian, Japanese, Korean, Middle Eastern - really, any kind of good ethnic food. Thanks!

La Pergola was good, if it's still there (Mediterranean, but more along the Israel/Lebanon/Turkey side than Italian). I haven't been to the Korean places, but I've heard good things about the one at Oak Lane Road & Cheltenham Avenue. For Japanese there's Hibatchi, although it is a chain. It's a bit further, but Casablanca in Warrington was decent (Moroccan). Then in Willow Grove there's La Vang, a Vietnamese/French place.

Little Marrakesh (Moroccan) was excellent, but it's the only Moroccan food I've had, so I have nothing to compare it to. It's in the Dresher area.

ajb842 is on a distinguished road
1.Indian- Bhagya's Kitchen in Glenside(on willow grove ave in wyndmoor), palace of asia in fort washington
2. middle eastern- in chestnut hill called Shundeez, but I've never been there
3. Asian-I don't recommend Hibatchi in Jenkintown, go out to Ooka in Willow Grove. There's also a Japanese place in Chestnut hill thats good called Hokka Hokka. Also there's Jasmine's on Easton Rd in Glenside at Mt Carmel ave, and it's really good there(kind of chinese fusion). I think there's a place on Bethlehem Pike called Akiko's for sushi but I've never been there.
4.Mirna's Cafe in Jenkintown,right on old york rd across from hiway theatre
5. Greek-athena restaurant in Glenside, walking distance from Keswick Theatre
6. Korean-you would have to check out some of the restaurants in "little korea" in Cheltenham. My korean friends know where to go, but I don't.The asian market on cheltenham ave is fantastic and they have a food court. There's also Korea Garden in Blue Bell which is pricey but the food is good. My friend recommended a soup restaurant in Cheltenham that you can create your own soup but I don't know what it's called.
7. Moroccan-I like Fez off South Street for an authentic experience. It's like $25 a person for an 8 course meal complete with belly dancers!
8. Jamaican(my heritage)-we go to Hummingbird on Wadsworth Ave for takeout. Across the st is Pat's Market for any other items you might want. This is technically philly but just 2 min away from Arcadia University.
9.Mexican-Georgina's on Bethlehem Pike but I've never been there.try Tamarindo's in Ambler for mexican

That's all I can think of at this moment...
