There is an old joke that goes "She cooks like my mother, my mother was also a lousy cook. In that same vein ethnicity doesn't guarantee that you are an expert. All it means is that this particular restaurant uses condiments and spices, in the amount and to your liking. Even in our Italian family we were divided on likes and dislikes of the dishes my mother made.

and to her credit my mother would say Rubicon ( I had that name even as a child ) you don't like -----in the sauce so I made some sauce with the combinations of the meats you favor. Oh thank you Mama.

So the only way you gonna know if you like-a this restaurant is to go and mangia for yourself
