ESH, but you more so. Allergies are risky and you should have compromised and gone to the Caribbean place. They are a little AHish for seeing you not eat the Korean the first time and picking it again…unless they thought you were just not feeling well the first time — I guess that depends on if anyone knew you didn’t like it and were struggling with the smells. You do sound racist by calling some food normal, though.
YTA for lying in the title.
