Sounds like you never tried actual Asian food, they are as different from each other as Eastern European to Italian.

Anyway, you do you

Based on their post history, it looks like they're from the UK. From what I've heard, UK has good Indian food, but bad east Asian, SEA, and Latin American food.

Nah we have taco bell, tortillas and chipotle here so the LatAm is covered

Please tell me you're joking.

Italian and Eastern European isn't all that different either tbqh, it's why I like em.

Most food everywhere is just roughly the same, it's usually some bread with meat in it. Greek pita wraps are just a mediterranean burrito, which is roughly identical to a kebab, make it messier and you got shwarma, and all of those are just funny burgers, which is a way to make a british breakfast portable, gyozas are like pelmeni but big, fried and need soy sauce to go down rather than ketchup, and the marinated olives in taste profile aren't all that different from pickled fish common in EE.
