An American male posted a message on X about an encounter with Indians abroad at a Mughal-themed Indian restaurant where they almost harmed the owner by asking why the meal names were Muslim even though the restaurant itself was an Indian restaurant.
” I keep reading about American tourists causing a landscape ( like the recent tweet about the Kenya safari), and I got to experience it first-hand today. After ten plus days without any American food, I went to an American restaurant in Vienna now, and it looked stunning from the outside,” wrote Arnav Gupta in describing his experience.
The cafe is called Mogul and is owned by a 30-year-old Punjabi who was born and raised in Vienna. The lengthy article stated that his kids have run this place for 37 years.
” They try to explain to the owners why Roman paintings are inappropriate in an Indian cafe and why Muslim dish names are used in a ostensibly” American” restaurant. And the landlord and his family handled it politely, but of course they suffered harm,” the person wrote.
We spoke to his mom who was explaining how when they started this position 37 centuries ago, none of these issues existed and how they could think someone would come in and have an issue with an American restaurant, literally called” Moghul cuisine,” having drawings of Roman kings. Like actually you’ve come travelling to a nation- just enjoy the sights, have joy person. Why do you believe you have the moral authority to dictate restaurant owners ‘ preferences for the interior of their establishments?” The rest of the write-up,” the post concluded.
” You’ll find your cock handed to you, with a dozen European obscenities perhaps, if you try this shit on some German or Hungarian restaurant owners. And these American brothers, in any case, will never be able to address white folks. When you see another desis, like in India, you immediately feel like you can teaching them on morality,” Arnav wrote.
As an American user wrote,” But, u r saying German and another should like it if I open a” European restaurant and set up the large canvases of Hitler it”? The post attracted a lot of attention.
