First, "Oriental" refers to rugs--did you mean "Asian?"  

I had a favorite restaurant in Beloit, Wisconsin when I lived there.  I moved to my present town in April, 1982.  Three months later my brother called, laughing his ass off, and said my favorite restaurant had been closed down due to finding both dog and cat carcasses in the dumpster.  I didn't see it with my own eyes, but I have no reason to doubt him.  

As I said, it was my favorite restaurant--tasted GREAT and never made me sick.  It doesn't get any better than that.

Asian - from Asia
Oriental - from the Orient (a.k.a. the Far East)

What's the difference?

So, are you saying the very famous "Orient Express" delivered rugs?

Anywho, this is from Wikpedia:


Oriental" is sometimes used by the West as a term to describe cultures and goods from the Orient. Other countries still hold onto using Oriental; for example, Mizrahi Jews (native to the Middle East) are often referred to as Oriental Jews and the University of London's School of Oriental and African Studies focuses on the Middle East, East Asia and Africa.

Oriental is also used as an adjective akin to "eastern": for example, the Philippine island Mindoro is divided into two provinces whose titles include the words "oriental" and "occidental" respectively.

Traditionally, the Orient referred primarily to the cultures and countries of what are now considered Northern Africa, the Middle East, the Subcontinent and Western Asia. This particularly included Persia, Mesopotamia, Asia Minor, and Egypt. As awareness of the countries of Eastern Asia grew in Western European and American consciousness in the late 19th century, the term came to refer primarily to China, Japan, and the surrounding nations. Remnants of the older conception of the Orient still exist in the English language in such collocations as "Oriental rug" and "Oriental harem".

In the 21st century, the term "Oriental" is considered by some people, primarily in the United States, to be derogatory, largely because of its connection to imperial 19th century Europeans and Americans who are thought to have held a patronising attitude towards the region....

A place called Ah-Sah-Wan was closed here when inspectors found skinned kitties hanging in the freezer.

Asia describes an entire continent - a damn big one too. Technically, Russians are Asian.

Yes, a Chinese restaurant in Dubois, Pennsylvania was shut down because during the yearly Health Inspection they found Pussies hanging from a clothesline in the kitchen.

Quite true.  Also, Iraq and Afghanistan are technically in Asia.

I believe Asian is the more PC term for "people from Asia,"  "Oriental" is a term now not really used.

I know that about 20+ years ago "Bill Lee's Bamboo Chopsticks" in Bakersfield California got into big trouble because they had 7 gutted and skinned cats hanging in the walk in refiridgerator when the Health Department came to inspect.  I do not know that they were caught "serving" cat however.

p.s. I love Bill Lee's and would eat there today.
