They always are seem to be worked by Asians. When they don't have Asians they just run them out for a Mexican since we can't tell the difference anyway.

Just interesting how most grocery stores have no Asian workers outside of the sushi prep stations.

I think they're mostly contracted out.

ETA: The sushi counter, that is. Those Asians are likely employees of a 3rd party company.

I get really confused when I go to my local pizza place.

I think it’s usually one Italian man that runs the place. And I think that Spanish and Italian sound alike.

So when I hear him speaking to the other Mexicans in the back, (who I thought were just dark skinned Italians.) He’s really speaking Spanish.

But I thought it was Italian. But then I have to wonder is he really Italian and they’re all speaking Spanish in the first place? Because I don’t know Italian that well.

Most of the HEB stations are Mexican. Most sushi restaurants front Asian hostesses and wait staff, but Mexicans in the kitchen.

Both are hard workers. Asians better with money and smarter, but Mexicans are reliable and work hard. All family oriented.

Maybe a certain minority race in this country can take notes.

And the Asians are probably Vietnamese, who have about as much connection to Japanese sushi culture as the Mexicans.

This deserves its own thread.

Do you really want sushi that is made of catfish, grinnel, carp, etc.?

A while back there was a place called Italian Pie on Coursey Blvd in BR that was owned by a Vietnamese guy. And the food was fine.

And ole baw saved the day during one of the hurricanes that kept BR without power for a couple weeks. He cooked and froze an arse-load of spaghetti and meatballs before the storm, then hooked up his generator and warmed it up and sold it, at regular price I might add, to hungry people after the storm. One of the best meals I have ever had given the situation.

I think it's hilarious because half the sushi places are staffed by Hispanic folks and then you see the sushi chef at Publix or Kroger and he's wearing a Hachimaki right next to the yogurt section
