kitchens with dodgy hygiene and food storage standards rather than the cuisine itself - I believe.
Your point about cooks not being familiar with western cuisine is well made, but they actually tend to cook things to death which would tend to kill nasties.
As they don't know how a dish is supposed to taste other ingrediants are often added which makes a chicken steak taste like a nasi goring.
