It's always about restaurants. Why is it always about restaurants ?

I'm more worried about the fact he refuses to wear gloves and obey food safety directions by the Health Dept. though.
His sushi probably sucks.
are you saying his sushi being trash because he's white or because you're mad at what he's done?
It's backslash bunny. She gets to be low key racist on gaf for whatever reason.

She can also do stream of consciousness posts.
I would argue that being Italian or French doesn't really have the same baggage in the US because they're white and not seen as inferior, subhuman, etc. (edit: though, since I never lived in NYC, I don't know if perhaps that part about being Italian doesn't have baggage because IIRC there IS an Italian quarter so perhaps there's some stuff there too. Okay on further thought yes, this would be bad if it were fifty years ago and it was a bunch of German Americans putting on an "Irish" or "Italian" accent to "entertain" their patrons at their Irish or Italian themed restaurant.)
I was being flippant, but he's probably not amazing. If he were, sushi enthusiasts would mention it.
& in all honesty his sushi probably is mediocre on a good day. NYC is one of those places with a ton of REALLY GOOD high end sushi places, and then nothing good midtier, and a bunch of crappy ones.
U go girl, you keep on diggin' that hole !
You seem really personally defensive about my rating of this guy's sushi.
Well, you never ate it and don't know who he is so... just because you ate at Jiro's (son) place doesn't mean you can judge a sushi via a news article ?
Last week I was paying for my lunch at the grocery store, and it was sushi from the sushi bar section of the deli there. There's a bagger who works there who is just the biggest creep, he's visually creepy, his awkward small talk is creepy as fucking hell.
Anyway, I paid for my sushi and he looked up, squinted his eyes, stuck out his front teeth and bleated out "AH SOOSHI, DANIEL-SUN??". He was so loud. It didn't even sound like Pat Morita, either, more like a cross between Kahn from King of the Hill and the waiters from Christmas Story, but high pitched like Starscream/Cobra Commander.
I'm not Asian, but I was still kind of frozen in my tracks for a second, like I couldn't believe it. The rest of the day I kept thinking of clever things I could have responded with, but unfortunately at the moment I just shuffled out gape jawed.

That's terrible.
Amazing exchange :
Japanese people can pronounce "L"s.....
"R"s are what Japanese people have a hard time pronouncing.
De-Li-Sha-Su would be how most Japanese would pronounce "delicious".
Anyways, I don't even understand what he's trying to do by putting on a fake accent. It just makes him look like a dumbass.
I think you have it backwards
No, I don't.
Yeah, you do.
I'm Japanese yo.
That didn't stop them from explaining it to him thereafter for a full page !
