Cuban Chinese restaurants: only on the upper west side of Manhattan? If so, why?

Posted by vickyb, January 2, 2007

My understanding is that there was a Chinese migration to Cuba in the past century and then to America. The Chinese brought from Cuba not only egg foo young but also fried plantain and opened restaurants all over the upper west side serving both. Does this phenomenon exist anywhere else in the U.S.? And if not, why not?
