Chinese restaurants in Hawaii, Chinese restaurants in Honolulu, Beijing restaurant

According to the US version of the China Daily newspaper, while the US economy has been slow in recovering, the state of Hawaii is improving its lot by attracting Chinese tourists.  Hawaii Tourism Authority’s figures suggest Chinese tourists are boosting the Hawaiian travel industry.   According to the report, visitors from China have been increasing year over year since the signing of the Memorandum of Understanding in 2007 between the US and China, which made travel easier for groups and leisure tourists.  During 2011, tourism official expect 91,000 Chinese visitors to arrive in Hawaii, a 37 percent over 2010.  In 2010 alone, expenditures associated with travel from China reached $129 million.

Hawaii tourism officials are working with local universities and colleges to give tourism workers training in Chinese language, culture, protocol and customs. The program is meant to make such workers better at welcoming Chinese visitors to Hawaii. To date, more than 2,000 service workers have taken part in the program.

Beside the initiatives from the State of Hawaii and local industry leaders, Hawaii is a natural fit for Chinese tourists as has been Hawaii for Japanese tourists.  There are a lot of people and businesses with historical and cultural ties to China.  Many residents had parents and grandparents whom originally immigrated from China. 

There are many Chinese language schools, religious institutions and of course many, many Chinese restaurants Hawaii.  Many of the more well-known Chinese restaurants in Honolulu are inexorably tied to local Hawaii culture, like the old Wo Fat restaurant in Chinatown and the McCully Chop Suey in Moili’ili.  It sad that these cultural icons are no longer there; but new restaurants have taken their place.  Examples include the Beijing Restaurant in the Royal Hawaiian Shopping Center and Hee Hing Restaurant in Kapahulu.

That had to do with 35mm slide transfer services. I read through the website.

11/28 Salsa San Diego Dance Classes

The salsa is a Latin rhythm dance which evolved from the cha cha and mambo. It is probably the most popular dance in San Diego, California.

The classes are great fun and they offer a repeat the class for FREE for a period of one year so that the student can rehearse what they learned and come back to class to review their steps.
