PRAGUE -- Far from the picturesque cobblestone streets of downtown Prague, 42-year-old Vietnam-born Nguyen Kim Thu is in the back corner of her family-run pizzeria in the southern outskirts of the city, hunched over a large slab of dough being prepared for the evening rush.

The restaurant was originally opened to serve Czechs, who would take the 45-minute bus ride from central Prague to the sizeable but secluded Vietnamese enclave nicknamed "Little Hanoi." These days, most of her customers are other Vietnamese shop owners in the area.
