>Just a few thousand puts a restaurant on every block ?>

In 1970s there were under 5 chinese resturants in each of big indian cities. And many of these were founded by relatives of Tangra chinese from Calcutta. But those few restaurants created the taste for indian chinese food in those cities. Over the decades, indian restaurants copied the indian chinese menu and now it is part of every corner restaurant.

>It is interesting though as there were basically no Hakka restaurants here just a few years ago.. and no pork is not common in Chinese restaurants here until these appeared.. now they they are popping up all over..>

Part of the reason is that indians prefer the Indian-Hakka-chinese food compared to the food at regular chinese restaurants. So the increase in hakka chinese restaurants may reflect growing indian immigrant population.
