Geez, whatta bunch bull!

First of all, most Chinese and Mexican restaurants don't have hamburgers on
the menu or the materials to make one. Second, some of the best American
food I've ever tasted was made by foreigners. The best burger I ever bought
came from a Korean fish/chips/burger joint that started out to be a fish
market but never quite got past the burger/chips part. My favorite Southern
style BBQ joint is owned and run by a Japanese family that hires Mexican
help. The only non-chain burger joint in my town is also owned by Koreans
and their burgers beat everyone but In n' Out. In fact, most of the
non-chain burger joints in the SFBA are owned by Orientals. They've got
American fast food down cold.
