Hmmm, yes, the most popular ethnic restaurant in Mexico City is Mexican. How did I not see that coming?

Wouldn't it be more meaningful to categorize by foods foreign to the given country?

I mean, it shows that Phoenix has more Mexican restaurants than American, so you can’t really make an assumption. You also need to leave in all the statistics to figure out things like how exactly dominating the native cuisine is compared to all others and such

I think that makes Phoenix interesting, not the whole image meaningful.

The native food really drowns out information about other food, especially in Asia with the huge blue circles covering everything else.

If you remove the native cuisine from each city it will become a completely different report and make international comparisons useless. The point of this is to show how dominating Asian restaurants (and running restaurants) are in Asia
