An Usual Saturday.....

Vietnamese food was 1st introduced to my life when I came to Adelaide. I hardly recall having V. food back in Singapore. I am always under the impression that there are alot of vietnamese people living in adelaide and most of them are grown up here & majority speak cantonese. So...I did a search as follow:
Extracted from some website
"The population of Adelaide consists of students, overseas-born Adelaideans and the local inhabitants. The population of Adelaide consists of a unique mixture of English, Irish, German, Vietnamese, Italian, Greek and Polish people. As per statistical data, 38% of the people are English, 34% are Australians, 3.5% were Italian, 1.2% are Vietnamese, 0.7% Polish and German, while the Greeks consist of 2.3% of the population"

This explains why there are so many Vietnamese resturants around and this lead to our usual Saturday Lunches.
