RE: Offtopic: Canada and America

I remember when I was about twelve my parents took me to New York City to visit, and someone on the bus saw that I had a maple leaf on my windbreaker.

When they learned we were looking for a good chinese restaurant, they took the time to go to Chinatown with us and showed us where Wing Wah was.

The food was excellent, and the atmosphere was just right -- the place was cramped, there were plates stacked up to the ceiling and the menus were in Chinese only, which is just what we were looking for.

The New Yorkers were nice, and so we went back to New York three more times...
