—”The people who work there do not speak much English”

A gentleman that worked for me for many years was a serious foodie. He was Tex-Mex, fluent in English, Spanish, Italian, and French.

He enjoyed some very nice restaurants and would visit the kitchens.
Invariably the same report; the kitchen help was mostly Hispanic most of the time.

Sometimes I believe he was a bit disapointed.

Just to be clear: the mall food shops I was describing are 1000% Chinese. Owned, operated, staffed: Chinese. All items on the menu: Chinese. Nothing but. Why they decide to call themself “Texas BBQ”, is a mystery to me. They make not the slightest effort to behave in any way like their name. It’s a straight-up Chinese restaurant.

But labels: do they matter?
