    When I was a kid, there were three Chinese restaurants on the same block of Main Street in Woodland, the small Yolo County town where I grew up: Fong's, Hong Kong Cafe and the Chicago Cafe. Back then, I found it odd that the Chinese food we ate at home was nothing like what these restaurants served, things like chop suey, egg foo young and sweet and sour pork.

    An old amusement park game in San Francisco’s Japantown is helping accomplish what the mayor and other city leaders can’t seem to make happen downtown — bringing shoppers back. The claw machine, which tantalizes players with seemingly easy-to-grab prizes, originated in the U.S. and became a craze in Asia and Japan that’s been exported back to America. Japan-based Kiddleton has opened two locations of its claw machine arcades in Japantown — and they’re a hit.
