the best chinese food is actually not in chinatown IMHO. have you tried the chinese restaurants at Bayswater? The good ones there are Mandarin Kitchen(famous for lobster noodles), Royal China (good dimsum), Four Seasons (slightly over-rated roast duck) and Magic Wok (my personal favourite). And as for Malaysian food, try Satay House on Sale Place (near Edgware Road). Happy eating!!

Piedmont is in the north of Italy. Turin is the capital of this region.
