Some background: Ippudo is no local (or, for that matter, seasonal) product. Itâs the first American outpost of a Japanese chain of more than 50 restaurants, a fact I find amusing. Chains are usually frowned upon by the food cognoscenti, as this one would be if it had arrived in New York via St. Louis and St. Paul.
PETITE REFERS TO STATURE, NOT WEIGHT. According to the fashion industry Petite is defined as 5â²5â³ inches tall and under. In the United States petite women represent 70% of the female population. There are approximately a hundred million petite fit and petite plus size women domestically. (USA Petite Model winners featured to the left.).
All thin girls are not petite but, all petite girls aren't necessarily thin either. (Sometimes men can be referred to as petite when they are the male equivalent of the definition above.) Example 1: Mary-Kate Olsen is most likely petite from drug binges and malnourishment. Minh Hoa, (who lives in Vietnam) is most likely petite due to her genetics.
