Hi All,

I'm a mid 20s Asian dude recently relocated to Dallas. Where are all the good spots to meet fellow Asians like myself?

I'm single too, so a cool spot to meet other single women would be nice as well!!

Plano, Richardson, Irving. Not Dallas proper.

The metro has a whole has a pretty large Asian population, probably about 5th in the nation. Garland, Richardson, and Plano are come to many Vietnamese, Chinese, and south east Asians. There is a Vietnamese mini mall in Garland, and several Asian supermarkets throughout the area. There's Hong Kong Market in Dallas, and a Buddhist meditation center in Garland. But really you could go just about anywhere in northwest Garland, Plano, or Richardson and met Asians.

What's Scream77 supposed to do? Go to Garland, Plano, or Richardson and just walk to an Asian at a grocery store and say (or should I say scream) "Hey, you're Asian, me too!!! Let's Asian together."

I'm not connected enough to know where the favorite hang outs are, but as others have mentioned Richardson and Plano probably contain the epicenter of the Asian population in DFW. You may want to take a trip to the new 99 Ranch Market in Plano and try networking.

99 RANCH MARKET

Also, there seems to be many Asians at Choctaw Casino in Durant, OK (1 hour north of Dallas) on the weekends.

If you like going out, just go out where everyone else does. There are plenty of young Asians out and about in Uptown, Lower Greenville and Knox-Henderson. I hang with a pretty diverse set, and they've noticed Steel(in the Centrum building on Oak Lawn) had a high concentration. Especially during happy hour. Also, the strip with Natsumi and Veritas on Henderson. I didn't make those observations, it was actually Asian young women informing me that "this must be the spot to pick up Asian women". Especially Steel(is it still there? Restaurants move fast in Dallas)

If you're looking for that, "meet a woman at the grocery store" situation, Super H Mart in Carrollton is a good spot, located at Bush Turnpike and Old Denton. Super Saigon Mall in Garland is probably more of a good hangout. You literally hardly see anyone but SE Asians there. Plenty of restaurants, shops there. Sort of like a mini-mall.

What flavor of Asian are you?

Its pretty easy to meet Vietnamese, Chinese, and Koreans. My wife is Thai and her parents just moved here and they had to go to the Thai community center in Dallas to meet other Thais.

Dallas does have a Korea town. Lots of Koreans hang out there. There is also an area of Carrollton on Old Denton road where there are lots of Korean owned businesses.

Vietnamese are everywhere in DFW. Garland, Arlington, Carrollton, Irving, and Plano all have lots. They arent hard to find.

The Chinese community in DFW is concentrated in Plano by a large margin. I read that 2/3 of the entire DFW Chinese community lives there.

However you can find Asians out and about in all the hot nightspots in Dallas. The Knox-Henderson seems to attract the most. Also there are tons of dating websites for Asians.
