Monterey Park
About
Monterey Park was one of the first SGV cities with a big Chinese community and got nicknamed 'Little Taipei' in the '80s. Atlantic Blvd and Garfield Ave are lined with dim sum halls, Taiwanese breakfast spots, Sichuan restaurants and noodle shops, plus grocery stores and bakeries. Downtown LA is about 15–20 minutes by car.
Jasmine says
One of the earliest Chinese suburbs in the US.
The dim sum and beef noodle soup here
are the result of generations of immigrants voting with their stomachs.
A Chinese-community neighborhood and a practical place to stay in the SGV.
