i was in a mandarin course over the summer and my class went to lunch in St. Louis' "China Town" in the area described...There is an asian supermarket on the North Side of Olive, about 5-6 blocks East of I-170 that we checked out, lots and lots of food in there...least i thought so.

I am really diggin the chinese food over here. I studied Mandarin at BLCU in Beijing for a little over a year and came back eating at the places in the specified area. They're pretty damn good although the last time I was at Wei Hong for dim sum on a sunday everything tasted like it was about to spoil. They were consistently good before that though...ill have to go back.

Really makes me wish I was around before they bulldozed our very own Asian 'hop alley.' A few years back the Asian business owners were tossing the idea around to add gates at the entrance to the Asian area there. I'd really like to see that happen.

Yes that gate would give the area more recognition...we don't really have a bannered ethnic street outside of the hill do we?

It brings it all together. I def think they should do it

I love visiting these Chicago streets with the gates...
