Talk:Asian supermarket

message: "Presently there is a booming demand for these Supermarkets which includes Fish Markets, Grocery Stores which are now all over the United States."
::I deleted this because this is complete POV.  Not every market stays open.  Like regular stores, some do go out of business.  In fact I am curious as to the statistics behind it.  
"Much of these restaurants popping up like mushrooms due to client demand in the U.S. is contributed by Superb Asian Cuisine, proof of which, that the Chief Cook of the White House is a Filipina (Philippine Woman), serving no one else than the President of the United States and family for years until the present (2007)."
::Not true.  Historically the stores came about for social reasons such as increase Asian population etc.  US president having a chief cook has nothing do with it.  Benjwong 01:49, 27 June 2007 (UTC)

message: It's just minutiae, but there is a Galleria Supermarket in Northridge, California. There is also an HK complex in the San Fernando Valley, though I'm not sure which specific region it's in. (For anyone who lives there, it's on the intersection of Sherman Way and White Oak Avenue.)
In addition, there seems to be a complete lack of Thai representation, despite the popularity of Thai cooking. Is that ethnicity's presence in the Asian supermarket scene very small? I see the Thai-themed Bangluck Market chain growing steadily, though extremely slowly. Ron Stoppable (talk) 09:30, 18 January 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Unlisted stores 

message: There's plenty of different ethnic groups forming ethnic markets all over the world, but the only article I can find is Asian supermarket.  How is an Asian supermarket different from, say, a Mexican supermarket, which doesn't have an article?  I think there should be one page for all forms of imported food markets and maybe a subhead for "Asian" and another for "Mexican", et cetera. 24.10.48.67 (talk) 13:59, 21 May 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Should this article really exist? 

message: I don't know if Americans realise this, but the term "Asian" is not necessarily used in the same way in other countries as it is in the US, where it seems that Asian = East or South-East Asian. In the UK, for instance, "Asian" is more commonly used to refer to people from the Indian subcontinent, the term "Oriental" is more likely to be used for East/South-East Asian (if you mentioned an Asian supermarket to a British person they'd probably assume you meant an Indian one). Therefore I have some issues with using the term "Asian Supermarket" as the title for an article focusing entirely on this sub-set of Asian supermarkets as is overly biased towards the US worldview (a common problem on wikipedia!). Having said that, I'm not sure what the solution to this is, as I don't know of a single universally acceptable name (I'd say change it to Oriental but that's me coming from the British perspective & I don't know how widely that term is used in the US & other parts of the world). One possibility, rather than changing the name, would be to actually widen the scope of the article to include all Asian supermarkets, with separate sections for "Oriental" supermarkets & "Indian" supermarkets (and any others people feel are relevant).missdipsy (talk) 21:27, 17 September 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  "Asian" applied only to East/South-East Asians is US-centric
