Pittsburgh restaurant features 'conflict cuisine'

Jon, I hope that your restaurant succeeds. Just because we are having conflicts with various countries does not mean that they don't have some very good food. I like to try different foods from different places myself. Just because some of the people hate us does not mean that all of them do. Learning a little about other countries doesn't hurt anyone at all. One of the best ways to get to know about people is sitting down and having a meal with them. We are all just a little more "human" and civil to each other at those times usually. Then we can take what we learn at that time and add to it as we go along. We might even become very good friends with people who had been perfect strangers to us before that time and all of us could end up understanding each other a little better. Even if we don't end up becoming friendly with the people from these countries we can at least enjoy some of their cuisine.

Just because you are choosing to serve food from countries that we are in conflict with does not make you any less American then anyone else either.
