Title: Reflecting da news, didn't matter if it's "Hmong" sausage, Lao sausage or Thai
Post by: theking on March 01, 2020, 11:57:29 PM

sausage or pho or Chinese or Korean or Japanese food..

We checked out several Asian restaurants this past Friday at prime dinner time to see how true the reports are and it was pretty empty for the most part so guess what they say on the news where people are avoiding Asians restaurants are true  ???..

We ended up having some Thai sausage, shrimp in a blanket and pad thai at a Thai restaurant and yep, that place was pretty dead too:

With that said, the food was good and service was quick and we got to enjoy our meal in a very peaceful setting so we left them a good tip  8):

Corona reminds me of SARS back in 2003? where Asians were also discriminated against just because they were Asians...Examp les:
