How do you know it's cheap ? You have no idea what quality of ingredients they are using for these dishes, or how much prep and time it's taking. People don't act like Irwin's is taking a "cheap" cuisine like pasta with sauce and charging 23 a plate for it is extortion. Asian food can cost money too, if you want cheap pho, pho 75 will always be there. This place is trying to do a higher end version obviously.

Definitely part of it. Just look at all the narratives and commentators joking about how Philadelphia was going to be anarchy and chaos whether the Eagles won or lost. It feeds into outside people thinking that's what they have to do, when the reality is the people that actually live here aren't like that. Philly never riots when a team loses, we just get sad and drunk.
