It will flop. Pakistanis are not fan of pancakes.

Pakistanis will eat anything branded as "american", foreign, imported.

Not a fan myself but can see them being popular, at least initially. The novelty factor might wear off after a while though.

No contest

Paratha wins by far ... hahahaha

The thing is MacDonalds, KFC, Baskin Robins ( toxins )
Anything From Frozen to preservation and then served.
Its hard to believe fresh.

If you ever experience Frozen chicken to be cooked compare to Fresh chicken
Feel to your body is different.
Mostly american foods are enhanced in taste adding so many stuff we dont know about etc ...
consider Pringles not good for body.

Actually Holland is mostly flat and partly below sea level.

Enjoy the tulips

Are you offerring me flowers?

On a serious note, Holland is indeed very popular for its folowers specially the tulip. But tulips originally came from Turkey, not Holland.

It is a free choice to be made, so there is no problem. Don't like it? Don't eat there. Like it? Go all you want. What is the problem here? Let every person decide for themselves.

I think you are reading too deep into what I wrote, and maybe in hindsight it could have been phrased more clearly. My comment was a simple observation without any judgement of whether wanting to try foreign food is positive or negative. My personal opinion on this matter? I dont like pancakes. Having said that there are few outlets of entertainment left for the youth (sharif bache at least) so eating out at the new exotic dessert parlour/restaurant/diner will always be a popular option. After a while the novelty might wear out but a new american/british/anyting foreign place will always have a very good chance of succeeding.

They just need a place to spend it

Thank you for the explanation. All I can say is that it is good to have choices, and specially culinary choices in a society that simply loves food.

So Pakistanis cannot make pancakes and want US help?
The Pakistani idea of foreign investment is so stupid that commedy movies can be made out of it..
Such "Foreign Investements" only robs local businesses of their business..
If An engine manufacturer, Chip manufacturer was coming to Pakistan, i will cheer...but this is rediculous...
