Inspired by a method that "Conflict Kitchen" used to
promote
awareness of conflicts that USA is in with others:
> One recent Saturday, it featured a Persian dinner party
attended by customers in Pittsburgh and diners in
Tehran,
who were linked via video chat.
But that brings an idea.
Why should this be limited to
novelty?
Why not have an entire network of restaurants all
connected
to each other around the world via video chat, and serve
food based on the
country you are connected to.

Interesting to chat with people from a country of violent people and religious fanatics. |

What's to say that they don't think the same about us? A
central component of any conflict requires the
dehumanisation of the opposition. |

Anyway that is not the point of this idea. This idea is to
simply connect to other restaurants, rather than just those
we are in conflict with. |

Well, despite the violence and the fanaticism, a lot of people
around the world will still want to connect to the USA to improve
their English, which is a bit odd given that most Americans don't
really speak it
