A Thai community is thriving along Woodside Avenue in Elmhurst, Queens. CBS New York's Elle McLogan takes us for a tour.

I love Thai people so much. I will have to check this place out next time. I’m in New York because I didn’t even know there was a little Thailand. Her shop reminds me of a woman named Patty Myint Who ran a Thai restaurant in Nashville since the 1970s. It recently closed. But the inside of her shop looks so similar. Must be a Thai thing ☺️

He didn’t work inside the restaurant he worked at one of the universities nearby.. the Thai restaurant was all hers. Sometimes he would be eating with her. They had two children. I think both of them are now passed away, but their children continue to run their restaurant businesses with different establishments in the area.

I love that NYC has a little Thailand!! 😯🇹🇭🤗I’m gonna visit my next trip to NYC! I grew up in Chicago and there were Thai restaurants and grocery stores but they were scattered around the city. I love that there’s an ethnic Thai enclave.

Oh more invasion. No thanks. Thais are like the Turkish or maybe Albanians and Cambodians are like the Greeks who are native and the oldest kingdoms in the respective southeast peninsula regions. A garden is man-made and segregated into different floral sections in contrast to the untamed mixed wilderness, making a garden the perfect metaphor for the first fortified kingdom civilization on earth which was sure not inclusive. I’m a fraternal twin like Osiris, Apollo, yamaraja , the devil, hansel and Luke skywalker so I guess I’m a naturally born binary 😇

So you're not proud of Israel? Or did your family just immigrate to the US like everyone else to make more money? 🤣But I guess it's okay for you to criticize others and just conveniently ignore that your family did the same thing? 🤣Also Bangkok is the most visited city on earth for the last 10 years. I don't think people are going there because it sucks, whereas barely anyone willingly wants to go to Israel.

Just like in Phuket or Pattaya, where foreigners form their own communities such as Russian, British, and a few American communities similar trends can be observed in the US. Considering the history of Christopher Columbus and the European colonization of Native American lands, it's important to recognize that the US itself was established through such invasions. Therefore, it's inconsistent to criticize other ethnicities for establishing their own communities in the US

I don’t like Thailand either but as a fraternal twin like osiris, Apollo and the devil of cambodian descent having feudal noble ancestry and blood but raised in nyc, I love only ancient tropical and subtropical kingdoms from Cambodia to Egypt to Greece ever since age 8 when I first learned about them in 3rd grade Brooklyn’s elementary school. No offense to east Asia but to have the mind of liking developed countries would lead me to like any human who came from nothing and try to be something and show off. I prefer hereditary noble blood . It’s more regal. 🥰
