Our restaurants are really starting to annoy me, especially in the UK. They don't look nice at all. They usually look quite dirty besides Sabiib. Customer service isn't good and the menus aren't good either. I had some terrible service in Al Kahf, even my abbo was shocked at the lack of manners. I wish people would put a little effort into coming up with new somali dishes or re-imagining existing foods without being unauthentic.

It’s always irked me when foreigners talk about bananas like that’s all we eat. I find it offensive and Somalis are the worst when it comes to encouraging this. You need to understand that the racist anti-black Arab or Asians are mocking you, playing into the racist Black African caricature of the ape like madow who munches on bananas day and night. Maybe it’s all in my mind, but I always felt a sense of irritation when they go on about banana and rice and laugh like it’s some sort of joke I should be comfortable with. Banana isn’t our main dish. It’s an optional side eaten only with rice mostly and sometimes pasta. It’s the same way that Bangalis might eat Mango chutney. That’s it.

Al Kahf does that Somali thing where the ajaanib get top quality customer service but our own get treated like doo doo.

Seen it first hand as well, they’ll talk to you in Somali as if that justifies why your food is taking forever

Every issue Somalis have can be traced back to other Somalis.

We have a court jester/clown infestation.
