Re: Odp: Re: Do you eat at immigrant restaurants?
I think there's a difference between eating at restaurants owned & managed by immigrants, and eating foreign food. For me personally though, none of these aspects really affect my habits.
Do you people not wanting to support immigrants economically think one should stay away from immigrant restaurants, choosing multinational corporations like McDonald's, or buying from your local supermarket owned by other foreign capitalists, instead..?
I mostly cook myself, and I use ecologically and/or locally produced vegetables & meat when available / affordable. However, when I'm going to eat out, I only consider the reputation of the restaurant and the food available.
Also, obviously, a restaurant serving Chinese, Italian or Lebanese food in no way has to be owned by those ethnicities. So just because we have foreign foods doesn't mean we need to have hords of immigrants. Most Sushi places here are run by Swedes, since there aren't many Japanese immigrants.
