As for "Mexican food", I have noticed a distinct hatred for "Mexican food" by Chinese, Singapore, Taiwan and Hong Kong folks. It's really no use to tell them it's fake American stuff.....once the've had cheezy refried beans they are pretty grossed out.

Pablo,

Very easy to make Lassi at home, you need a blender with a circular whipping blade and get some canned Mango from Indian stores, some good full fat yogurt and whip em up, thats all.

I don't see that many Orientals at Indian restaurants either, even here in India where there are lots of Oriental ex-pats. Sadly, I truly love Mexican food and was honored to savor good quality at Dr. Carlos Fuentes house, his daughter was my classmate at NYU. Otherwise the Mexican fare in NY is truly pathetic just like Indian food.

Come to Detroit. You've got it and much more. All up and down Vernor Highway in southwest Detroit are very good Mexican and other Hispanic restaurants.
