This is sorta the case with me. Lots of grand Thai restaurants scattered about. We also have a huge Chinese population in Toronto (hence Chinatown), but limited Japanese stuff.


Lucky I love Thai food too :)

The nearest "city" to me is Wollongong, which while having a large ethnic population, doesn't have a huge Asian population. And those are mainly Vietnamese and Chinese. The Thai restaurants i've been to appear to be run, at least, by Thai people.
Sydney would no doubt be better, but it's about 1 1/2 hours' drive to the centre where all the dining is.

Oh, I forgot about Koon Hong. They sell generic "Chinese" food by the plateful in shopping centre food courts, but it's not something I would go out of my way to eat.
