btw, did you report these actions to the authorities?

*by "Asians", I assume you mean from the Indian sub-continent (India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Nepal, & Bhutan), rather than including Afghanistan, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Bahrain, Brunei, Cambodia, China, Indonesia, Japan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Laos, Malaysia, Mongolia, North Korea, Philippines, Singapore, South Korea, Sri Lanka, Taiwan, Tajikistan, Thailand, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, and Vietnam

Indeed. I've fallen into the same trap as calling them 'Asian', when Pakistani (or Muslim if appropriate). Whilst it's highly likely that they will be Muslims, I do know of a Pakistani Christian.

True. It describes itself as an eatery, which I think is an American term.
