'''Convoy Street''' in [[San Diego]], California, also known as just Convoy, refers to a street in a community called [[Kearny Mesa]]. The street is a main traffic artery within Kearny Mesa that runs roughly north/south and crosses other major streets such as [[Balboa Avenue]] and [[Clairemont Mesa Boulevard]]. |
|||
Convoy is located close to the heart of San Diego county and is situated between the communities of [[Clairemont, San Diego, California|Clairemont]] to the west, [[Tierrasanta]] to the east, [[Miramar, San Diego, California|Miramar]]/[[Mira Mesa]] to the north, and [[Linda Vista]]/[[Serra Mesa]] to the south. The area is bordered by the major highways of San Diego. Kearny Mesa can generally be pictured as an area described as an upside down triangle: where [[California State Route 52|Highway 52]] borders the top side on the north and the two other sides being represented by [[Interstate 805]] to the west and [[California State Route 163|Highway 163]] to the east. |
|||
Convoy Street in Kearny Mesa is recognized by many Asians in San Diego County because the area is known for being the home to a diverse community of Asian-owned businesses. Unlike other [[California]] cities such as [[Los Angeles]] and [[San Francisco]], where [[Chinatown]]s and Koreatowns are existent, [[San Diego]] does not contain specific communities that cater entirely to one specific Asian culture. There are communities along [[University Avenue]] and in Linda Vista that are home to predominantly Vietnamese businesses and Filipino business communities that are somewhat prevalent in areas like [[National City]] and Mira Mesa. However for the most part, none of these places are really locally referred to as "Filipinotowns" or "VietnameseTowns". |
|||
Kearny Mesa is unique in that there are many diverse businesses that are owned and representative of all the different Asian cultures. There are many [[Cuisine of Korea|Korean]], [[Japanese cuisine|Japanese]], [[Cuisine of Vietnam|Vietnamese]], [[Chinese cuisine|Chinese]], and [[Cuisine of Thailand|Thai]] eating establishments that are scattered across the Convoy Street area. One can enjoy anything ranging from [[Bubble tea|boba milk teas]], [[BBQ]], [[seafood]], [[pho]], [[ramen]], and more. Moreover, there are many markets that cater to all the different cultures, including [[99 Ranch Market]] on the north end (along Clairemont Mesa Blvd.), [[Zion Market|Zion]] and [[Mitsuwa]] markets in the east/central areas (near Balboa Ave, along the Hwy. 163 side), or the Nijiya market on the south end (just before crossing the I-805 overpass past Aero Dr.). |
