New Year, the streets are seen with flags and thousands of Chinese
go into the streets. For most of the year,though,Londoners and tourists go there mainly for the food in the Chinese restaurants. Their best restaurants are the ones where the Chinese eat.17CIs this Chinatown in the middle of London?
