    I am a curious person and open to meet other culture a few year ago I had a co worker who for my black hair and my appearance tax supposed that i was from Indian country  and invited to know their culture and we start with the food. After days he invited me to an Indian restaurant called Dera to start there, we caught the train and stayed in Jackson heights, queens. Before we get in i told him I am scare and he say do not worry let see their reaction. when we entered the restaurant, they all came back to see more than him i guess there i do not pass as Indian or muslin, but as Dominican.

  To see their face scared me a little and asked to leave , because i see the men sticking their tongue and asked why they did that and he explain that a scorn towards us and he say not matter we are going to eat this is america no India. he order Haleem, chicken Kabbad, Cabrid and a rice with sweet clove. when i started to eat i did not know that it was so spicy i cough a lot and they laughed on me and i grab my hands to eat and after a few snacks i was used to it and i became an admirer of the food that every Friday I was going to eat there and they get used to see us, after they were friendly lol.

  now i have Indian friend and i told them the i eat their food and they got surprise when i mention names so they even say no you Indian you do not look Dominican and i say OK but i am Dominican for sure.
