As to indian food, you’ve obviously never been to Savera in Charter Square in North Fremont. It’s actually a decent place to get North AND South Indian food. My pet peeve is that non-indians only think indian food is curries and the like, and thus most indian restaurants are north indian only. No Dosas, sambar, etc.

Savera you can get yourself a dosa and chicken masala (curry). Funny though, no one besides myself and my wife ever seems to eat there. Everyone else does to go. But it’s worth checking out.

Cattlemens and Black Angus is an interesting topic to me. I love a good steak. But in recent years, I’d rather get a steak from Texas Roadhouse, Claim Jumper or Outback. I prefer the quality and flavor of the meat, at least the few times I’d been to Black Angus recently and got a tough cut, and the atmosphere is more open and modern. I wouldn’t so much look at what takes over at the same location of a dying restaurant when we all travel a few miles to get to what we like.

Heck, we drive to Dublin to get good Indian food.

Never said I was any “better” than fobs, I just didn’t appreciate the implication that I was lying that I am actually Indian because I eat beef.

I am an Indian Christian and eat beef. And pork. Is that so hard to believe? In the Bay Area there are even Churches that cater to Indian Christians (Christ Church of India, for example).

You might want to check your stereotypes at the door, buddy.

FOB = “Fresh off the boat”, a term used to refer to the actual immigrants, and not their kids born here (like me).

I understand that new waves of residents change things, but we don’t have to like it. For example, IMHO, it’s a foregone conclusion that once Dino’s (the Dino’s on Fremont near Fremont/Thornton intersection) clientele, most elderly caucasians, die off Dino’s will close.

In Union City, we lost Carrows and “gained” a Mongolian Hot Pot.

You can just dismiss me as someone still bitter that both Cattlemens and Black Angus quickly closed up shop, but the fact remains that Fremont is so asian that people who have other tastes are in a minority.

It’s like when you go to Iowa, tough to find good Indian food. If I was living there (And I once lived in the midwest for school), I would be complaining that there isn’t enough diversity.

Here there is so much domination by asians living here that you get the exact opposite. Not enough burger, steak and comfort food places but and oversaturation of indian restaurants, tapioca drink places, etc.

There’s not enough balance in Fremont and the tri city area, IMHO.
