I think you misunderstand.

What I mean is the man who cooked the curry and served it to me and my two companions. He's of Asian heritage but was born and raised in the UK.

Does that mean that he's not really British?

What if he sees himself as British. Is he then culturally appropriating Asian food?

Because that's the argument being used about the food too. That dish was cooked in a kitchen in Birmingham. It has Asian heritage too. But is it not the British food?
