AsiaTown Neighborhood Guide
Li Wah Carts, Koko Puffs, and Superior Glow
🧭The Boundaries: E. 30th St. to the west, E. 55th St. to the east, St. Clair Ave. to the north, and Perkins Ave. to the south.
📌Well known for: The Asia Plaza and Li Wah, where the dim sum carts are legendary. You’ve also got Koko Bakery (get the Koko Puffs, thank me later) and the Night Market Cleveland events in the summer. It’s the unofficial headquarters for the best pho, ramen, and bubble tea in the Midwest.
👕Spot a Local By: Someone carrying a reusable tote bag overflowing with lychees, dragon fruit, and three different types of fish sauce.
👍Move here for: You’re minutes from Downtown and surrounded by the best food in the city. The lofts here are massive, often featuring high ceilings and actual industrial elevators.
👎Don't say we didn't warn you about: Parking nightmares. During Lunar New Year or a busy Saturday morning, finding a spot is like playing a high-stakes game of Tetris.
