Asian Newcomers to Houston

As you drive west down traffic-choked Bellaire Boulevard, straight through the suburb of the same name and into the mini-mall sprawl of western Houston, it's obvious that this is the Lone Star State's biggest city. A corporate outpost of Halliburton, the controversial conglomerate, sits on the right, and Sally Jo's Old Houston Bar-B-Q joint is up on the left. Then you see it, Houston Chinatown in front, left, right and behind you. You see numerous Houston Chinese Restaurants and Houston Chinese Shopping Centers .

Up and down Bellaire near Beltway 8, Chinese and Vietnamese signs battle with English for dominance in a part of town dubbed New Houston Chinatown by some, Asiatown by others.

If you're craving Chinese or Vietnamese Restaurants in Houston ,Bellaire is your boulevard of unbroken dreams. Drop into Sichuan Cuisine, a great place for Sichuan style food and of course super-spicy dishes.
