Fake Food

I am tired of hearing some people saying they are so excited that a P.F. Chang’s China Bistro is opening in their neighborhood. Despite it’s name, P.F. Chang’s is not Chinese food. It is American food. I could not find anything that P.F. Chang’s serves in China except for the rice. Even the rice was too dry and hard for people who know what’s up with Chinese food. Plus their entrees are about twice the cost compare to some of the best real Chinese food places in L.A. Some people say they like the ambience at P.F. Chang’s. Oh you mean the same ambience as The Cheese Cake Factory, Chilies, Macaroni Grill, El Toritos and Apple Bee’s? These look alike manufactured ambience with no soul?

Now I am not singling out P.F. Chang’s. All these corporate owned “Mexican” restaurants where the food is not spicy and the salsa has no punch is a big joke. What I am really mad about is some of these people keep trying to dumb down America. Americans as a whole are very unsophisticated about food. The last thing we need is restaurateurs trying to pass fake food for the real thing.

Stop trying to please people who can’t handle the real thing. Those people can go eat your all American hot dogs and cheeseburger with super size fries and a jumbo size soda just like the way they depicted in Carl’s Jr. commercials.

We have so many great food from around the world. It’s time that we start learning to appreciate some of these food so next time you travel outside of the U.S. you will not appear so uncultured.
