How many stupid fools will eat and pay the increased prices? I sure as heck wouldn’t.

RE:”Around 78 per cent of white customers have chosen to pay the extra fee, which he believes comes through “positive social pressure” and the need to feel like someone is doing something to help others.”

Oh brother!
Something wrong with these self-hating people.

I think that’s why he’s doing it as a pop-up.
By the time anyone complains, it’s already shut down.
It announces he will pull the same stunt in Detroit, but highly unlikely he would meet any protests there of course.
So it’s like he can fling sh!t and duck all the consequences.

Around 78 per cent of white customers have chosen to pay the extra fee,

Actually, it was even higher: 80.000% (of the total of five White customers who had the stupidity to visit this restaurant since this program began).

Seriously: Just how did the restaurant determine this statistic? Was every diner interviewed, and ask to identify his racial make-up? Or were they viewed surreptitiously by someone "qualified" to make that call based only on a cursory visual examination?)

Regards,

What is a pop up restaurant? Do they serve pop tarts? I’m glad that we live far from this crap.

Refusing to pay more comes off as anti-social and people don’t want to be judged for that.

He's right about that. Many whites have been socially conditioned to take abuse like this. Pay more for a meal to virtue signal that they are against racism. Laugh when a black comedian makes white jokes. Nod their heads like sheep when someone says that "racism is alive and well in America" or that no progress has been made against racial discrimination.

” local Nigerian chef Tunde Wey “

If he’s Nigerian, what’s local about him?

So, he is focusing on a virtue signaling gimmick rather than providing a good meal at a competitive price.

“How much for them to not spit in your food?”

Any white person that would patronize an Ethiopian restaurant is a fool.

Notice it says 78% of whites pay higher price but does not give a raw number of white patrons. How many whites are actually patronizing his racist social experiment. And how many return?

New Orleans is on my NEVER-go-there-again list anyway. Hated almost everything about it. This clown could give his food away or charge a million bucks per plate. I will never know and couldn’t care less.

What about customers who are half white? Do racially mixed customers get hustled for a slightly lower cost increase?

Let’s see if racist Blacks can keep his doors open - ha ha ha just like the idiotic “Pay what you can” at Panera and “no tipping allow” at some “trendy” place in Manhattan. Lots of luck gang.

So white people will avoid his place. And since blacks are poor tippers, quality wait staff will get other jobs. It will be funny to watch.
