I used to work in a pizza place that had an asshole owner who thought he was a genius. He'd opened a pizza and Chinese place. He called it (I shit you not) *Won Ton Parmesan*. It was closed 4 months later. He couldn't figure out why. I told him nobody wants to eat Italian made by Chinese and nobody wants to eat Chinese made by Italians. There are lines that shouldn't be crossed and a lot of questions to answer. He was using Italian ingredients in the Asian stuff and vice versa. He was such a cheapskate he'd found ways to cut corners on both sides of the menu.

Still, he refused to understand that by mixing them, you cheapened both. But his insistence was that he was a genius and should have got rich. I asked if he'd let his granddaughter (he was proudly Italian) marry a Chinese guy, he nearly had a stroke. He still did not see how keeping these things separate made them better.
