Question 11 • W Geography_B_IC

Which of the following scenarios would most likely occur if immigrants opened a restaurant featuring their native cuisine in a small town in America? (For example, Chinese immigrants move to a small town in Texas and open a Chinese restaurant).

Answer
A
They would get little interest, as Americans generally do not like foreign cuisines.
B
The dishes would remain essentially the same.
C
The dishes would be changed to reflect the tastes of the new location.
D
The dishes would be the same in a small town as they would in an enclave.

Explanation

Restaurants often adapt traditional dishes to appeal to the tastes and expectations of customers in their new location. In a small American town, the immigrants would therefore be most likely to adjust some dishes rather than keep them exactly as they would be served in their home country or in an immigrant enclave. The best answer is “The dishes would be changed to reflect the tastes of the new location.”
