(KRON) – The Bay Area is home to some of the country’s best Asian food. Whether you’re strolling through San Francisco Chinatown or discovering Oakland’s Little Saigon, tasty Asian cuisines are available in many corners of the region. 

For Asian American Pacific Islander Heritage Month, KRON4 compiled a list of some tasty Asian dishes you can find locally.

The pineapple bun is a traditional dish in Hong Kong consisting of a yellow, dome-shaped pastry sometimes stuffed with a slice of butter. There is no pineapple in the treat – it is named for its top resembling the texture of a pineapple. 

Pineapple buns can be found in many different Chinatowns, but perhaps the most famous one resides at Pineapple King in San Francisco’s Sunset District. The Hong Kong-style bakery offers a long menu of traditional treats, including the pineapple bun.

Lumpia, a spring roll-like snack featuring a crispy exterior and a variety of fillings, is among the most popular Filipino dishes. Those in Oakland have several options to find lumpia, including Lucky Three Seven and The Lumpia Company.

Those craving Korean food have an array of choices. You can grill your own beef at a Korean barbeque restaurant or eat rice-based bibimbap – but chicken lovers should make sure they try Korean fried chicken.
