needs a bunch of weird art on the walls too

>>11281582
don't forget this guy

And the most important part:
>Not a single white person involved in the kitchen

>>11281971
Thanks Moishe.

>>11281582
Forgot
>ads for local businesses laminated onto the tables

Do Americans really eat at non chain restaurant establishments?

>>11281582
Not a drink dispenser, a Pepsi cooler with a few two liters on the bottom shelf and a case of still-wrapped Gatorade bottles on its side

>new orleans turkey

I'm from New Orleans and I'd like to know what this is

>>11281694
Guns in my area

>>11282030
same

>>11281971
I got the exact opposite vibe from OPs picture but ok. Usually these small time joints will have some old italian guy in the kitchen while those big corporate "fine dining" restaurants in manhattan are 90% mexican 10% puerto rican.

>>11281582
Are these prices from 1970?

>>11281971
Nope. Most important is that everyone in the kitchen is related in some way to the owners. Blood, marriage or community reasons they gotta give a shit and have a direct stake in how that restaurant does beyond a paycheck.

>>11282489
I would commit an ethnic cleansing to know where I could get pastrami for ~3.00 per pound

>>11282039
I got the strap

>>11282785

>>11281985

>from Louisiana
>don't know Cajun turkey

>>11282519
Pls pick the albanians

>>11282509
Yeah, that's actually a given for Mexican/ other minority owned restaurants. You don't see many family owned restaurants with white people. The closest thing is an Italian restaurant, maybe, but they're always garbage.

A couple of weeks ago I was in Cambridge and I visited a restaurant like that. Ordered a "small personal-size calzone" that was fucking huge, hot, greasy, and absolutely delicious.

>>11282519
start in Tel-Aviv

>>11281985
Melancholic bonus if the businesses advertised have been closed for years

>>11282986
As smelly as they are they can run some pretty great restaurants

>>11281582
>a whole german for 2.14
Do I get her for life, or just a week like my local place?

>price per 100 grams
>implying the fatter ones are more expensive
Sounds like a terrific deal to me

>>11281996
Here in SoCal most of us don’t even eat at chain restaurants. Last time I did was like a year ago when my parents invited me to Olive Garden

>>11281971
Actually the opposite
Those family owned businesses aren't hiring shitskins because they know the quality would go down unless the owners themselves are shitskins

>>11281740
Mmmm... I can smell the 409.

>>11282806
Seconding

>>11281971
Yep. Nothing better than a kitchen full of proud African Americans.

I have no idea what any of these meals are

last time I ate at a place like this the sandwich was $7.75 and tasted like grocery store ingredients

>>11284541
this is why I don't eat at places that let niggers touch your food

Bitter truth is that expensive restaurants are usually better than those

>>11282482
>italian
yeah, not white

>>11284683
>pay 4x+ more
>get less food
>food is marginally tastier, or same in most cases

>pay less
>get a ton of food at local diner
>people treat you like a human
>food is just as good

I've gone to fancy restaurants and it's always the most disappointing experience ever.

>>11281582
So.. a good diner?

>>11281582
A-FUCKING-WHITE-MEN!!1!

>>11284717
poor fuck who thinks red lobster is a fancy restaurant detected

>>11281582
>Pepsi sign

Thought you're only allowed to pick one

>>11284443

>>11284781
It gets better - the Coca-Cola fountain serves Pepsi.

you could've at least tried to hide the fact you didn't make these yourself
