the funny thing about the foreign food argument even if it were valid, is that the foreign foods aren't even good representations of the cuisines. these small ethnic restaurants are usually runned by people who had no previous restaurant/cooking experiences back home and only started the restaurants in the west because of low barrier of entry. real authentic successful chefs/restauranteurs remain back home because they're already successful and don't need to emmigrate to a foreign country and deal with trashy customers
