I’m from Mexicali! We have the largest Sino Mexican community in the country. La Chinesca is the name of our “Chinatown” here in Mexicali. There is definitely more Chinese food restaurants here than Mexican food ones. They also recently have started to develop plans to build more buildings and statues to honor China and the immigrants who came to Mexicali :)

I’ve heard that the Chinese Food in Mexicali is really special and the chasiu is legendary. I’ve lived in Guangzhou (student program) and Monterrey Park, so I’ve eaten some really good food. I’ve been living in the Bajío for the past 10 years, and the Chinese food situation is not great (not great for Japanese food, either). There’s a pretty good coreano restaurant in Querétaro near the H.E.B. The food I miss most from Los Angeles, my birthplace, is dim sum. Second on the list is all the various forms of Asian noodles. Maybe I should check out Monterrey. With all the Japanese, Chinese, and Korean companies doing business in Monterey, maybe I’ll find some good asian restaurants. Otherwise I’ll have to wait for my next visit to L.A.

You will not find Chinese people in the barrio chino but most of those establishments in the zocalo are own by Chinese descendants or Chinese immigrants. But there aren't a lot of Chinese communities like in USA, you can also contact with the embassies they often have cultural stuff about the community you are interested in and helps you to contact with other people. Also for you to find a community is very complicated many Chinese immigrants changed their name/last name when they started to being persecuted by the authorities in 1910 so many Mexican might be Chinese and they don't even know that they are is why is hard to find a community like in USA en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chinese_immigration_to_Mexico#:~:text=Hundreds%20of%20Chinese%20in%20northern,homes%20and%20businesses%20as%20well.

The new Chinatown as someone said before is in other neighborhood, near to viaducto subway station. The famous and big old Chinatown is at the north, in Mexicali. You can also find Mexican Chinese in Chiapas and Tampico, Tamaulipas. The new immigrants are almost everywhere in the country.

There's an anecdote that one of my chilango (person from Mexico City) friends told me: "If you look Asian and you're in Barrio Chino, then you're not from there." The anecdote rings true because the initial population that lived in Barrio Chino have since left and blended into mainstream Mexican culture.

Hey, I just found your video. The Chinese community of Mexico City is centered in another completely different place, more to the south. The neighbourhood is called Viaducto-Piedad, near the underground station Viaducto. There you can see a lot of people of Chinese origin, businesses of all kinds, and really good restaurants. The so-called "Barrio chino" that you visited is just a tourist trap, located where the first community installed at the beginning of 20th century, but where just some cooks are related to the community by now.

Very interesting, thank you for this post!!!

Great to see ethnic mixtures just like me!!! As a kid, only people I knew who had our combo were my siblings. But as a an adult…it’s cool to see so many Asian-Latin people. Def more of us represented in Mexicali. Looking forward to seeing more of your videos.

Great video sir. I lived in the state of Sonora, Huatabampo back from 2013-2014. My dads side of the family is from this town in Mexico. One day went to the mall they had there and inside was a fast food Chinese restaurant. To my surprise the whole kitchen staff was Chinese. I asked about it and was told that there’s a pretty big Chinese community in that town and for the people coming from China, it’s easier to get setup in Mexico than it is in the United States. I was legitimately surprised as I only seen the Chinese community in Mexicali. There’s also a small community of Vietnamese and the name Lam is pretty prominent there since the early 50’s. Thanks for the video.

This is fascinating. Great video

I know a migrant, Ms Li, she's been here for the past 20 years and shes been able to move her family little by little here to Mexico. I also had a good friend in school who had Chinese ancestry. Not to mention all the ither ones I've met in plazas and malls when buying chinese food, and hearing them suddenly yelling to their children to work better in fluent chinese lol.

That is because Mexicans are not used to the taste of Asian food and with the Panda Express the person gradually enters what Asian food is, then people can try another dish and the taste of Asian food will not be So strange to their palates, in western countries Asian restaurants sell food that they know Westerners will like, they know that people will buy that food and thus earn money, in short they sell it to Westerners They know that they will like it and that way they will not lose money, lately Westerners are more open to trying Asian food for example I, I have already tried real dishes, traditional Asian dishes in my case Vietnamese, Chinese, Korean and Japanese food and I like most of the recipes, I got used to the flavors but there are still flavors that are too strong for me like fish sauce.

In the early 19th century our King Kalākaua, King of Hawaii, had thousands of Chinese folks come down on steam ships to work in our many sugar plantation was the base income for Hawaii at the time. Many of them stayed the rest of their lives here and had full rights as any Native Hawaiian did.

Hi 😊 I liked and subscribed 🥰💜 I like your channel.

I find this so interesting, I was first told about the Chinese influence in Mexico when I was staying in Obregon in the state of Sonora. And didn't realize there was such a history of the two cultures together.

I'm not Mexican but I'm latino from the south so maybe there's some similarity. I think the barrio chino is more like a touristic area in our culture so it could make sense why you didn't find many chinese-mexicans, I think maybe chinese descendants would choose a not so crowded area to settle, or probably they blended and integrated enough to be more spread

Vancouver has the largest Asian community out of Asia and that adds a special touch to that great city

Wow very Interesting video ..... 😎

“To me... it kinda sounds like a good time.” Lmaooo well said!

There are plenty, but they're spread out throughout the country, of course you're not going to find huge concentrations like in L.A. or Sydney, or London, but if you go to Mexicali there's plenty over there and it's a couple of hours drive from San Diego.

We have Chinese in Atotonilco el Alto. There are at least two Chinese restaurants in town. I’ve also seen a Chinese restaurant on the outskirts of La Barca, Jalisco. It was more of a “puesto” inside a supermarket but the Chinese have been coming into Jalisco for some time now.

Exactly how I feel eating mexican food abroad... can't expect much though, right? At least you tried.

Sí, yo vivo en Mexicali; fue un Chinatown, hoy tomaré el paseo histórico por la comunidad antigua llamada "La Chinesca".

Hey bud, go to the north side of Polanco by Museo Soumaya next to the fancy high rises apt, you'll find one Chino for every 10 Mexicanos

There’s also a huge community of Chinese in Durango, Durango Mexico a good part of the airport there has a bunch of direct flights to China. I was very surprised about how busy that section was.

I've heard Mexicali has good chinese food. Never tried it myself though.

Brought back memories of TJ while stationed in San Berdoo back in the early 80s. First time I heard a Chinese person speaking Spanish in a Chinese restaurant.

Heard op8 an i subscribed😎

I´m from Mexico and this video kind of reminds me of my cousin who went to the chinese province of shenzhen where he is currently working and he visited a mexican "restaurant" run by chinese people and the tacos were extremely "americanized" and those are far from the real tacos. But hey, the intention is what counts haha, also there is a mexican restaurant run by a mexican and its actually more accurate as much as they can when they are in the other side of the world. The same happens in Mexico City, there is REAL chinese restaurants in mexico city but they are not in "El barrio chino" but in the south of the city and some other in the west of the city like polanco or so. Actually "EL barrio" is just an atraction built by chinese people who occupied the zone a few years ago but the chinese population in CDMX is spreaded all over the city and not just in one place.

Hey forest! I'm a fourth generation Mexican chinese living in Mexico City, next time i can give you a tour and talk about a lot

I wonder what you'd think of el barrio chino of Havana? ;) I was shocked when I learned of it, super excited to visit it. and then..... no Chinese community left.... but just like in Mexico City plenty of restaurants, Chinese food and the like.
