"In effect, RedFarm is reeducating New Yorkers to ignore the complex externalities of transnationalism; to reduce the world outside Manhattan to a flickering cosmorama; to diminish those still colonized to an artifact of gustatory entertainment; to gleefully anal probe the margins of the colonial map."
Okay, but what do the dumplings taste like?

“We may observe that the government in a civilized country is much more expensive than in a barbarous one; and when we say that one government is more expensive than another, it is the same as if we said that that one country is farther advanced in improvement than another. To say that the government is expensive and the people not oppressed is to say that the people are rich.”

"Wherever RedFarm winks at stereotype and “multiculturalism,” it propagates colonial power structures. Wherever RedFarm juxtaposes incongruent culinary tropes or draws on popular culture, it participates in the limitless homogenization of “Asian” culture. RedFarm’s brazen absorption of “Oriental” cooking techniques into a dim sum mythology validates our fixation on conspicuous, colonial consumption."

Mommy hold me, I'm scared... This kind of review makes me want to vomit. Fire, that is. Onto the person who wrote it. It's more pretentious than spoiled European noble in an sub-Saharan slum school.

The people in the past who convinced themselves to do unspeakable things were no less human than you or I. They made their decisions; the only thing that prevents history from repeating itself is making different ones.

Some of it was really good and some was really bad according to the main review...... Apparently Pac-Man dumplings are too passee for the reviewer, not that that got in the way of his loquaciousness.

And now, after realizing what a colossal mistake that was, he's trying to prove he got something besides alcohol poisoning and herpes out of college.

I thought it sounds about right, but thanks Dogma. That was the phrase I was looking for only better!  Did laugh at the response, "How was the food then?" Was going to call my restaurant "Foo-shun Food Global Gastronoplex" Best go back to yorkshire puds and gravy and stick with "Chibi's Chowdown"
