Note to recorder:

Quite slow, but not too slow. American accent, please. Thanks a lot!

The late 19th century brought many Asians to America. Especially due to its geographical location, California was one of the centers for Asian immigration. The result was that these new Asian Americans not only brought their native food but also mixed it with the Mexican cuisine resulting in dishes as chili. Another well known fact is that they also created new dishes.

For instance: Did you know that a dish which is thought of genuinely Chinese, Chop Suey, was actually created in San Francisco, where a guest wanted to eat something in a late hour and received a stew out of kitchen scraps?
