Many food businesses are popping up in the country's capital. An example of a restaurant worth being featured is the recently established "Immigrant Food". This newly put-up business is just a block away from the White House.

The Immigrant Food restaurant provides delicious and filling meals for the lunch hour rush. The food offered by the restaurant is a combination of the different dished from all over the globe. The dishes served by the business resemble cultures from different nations. An example of this is the Central American and German cuisine fusion of a Vietnamese dish called spicy rice noodles served with pickled bananas where the pickled banana demonstrates the style of German in pickling foods. The restaurant also serves as an intermediary to allow its diners to donate to advocacy groups supporting local immigrants' rights. This is under the campaign: "United at the Table".

It also gives diners a chance to donate to local immigrant advocacy groups -- all under a slogan aiming to bridge the political divide and find common ground: "United at the Table."

Peter Schechter, a co-owner of the business, had actively participated since the opening of the business. He had shaken hands with restaurant guests and giving out the menus while people are falling in-line under the lunchtime rush-hour.

Schechter wants his visitors to feel at home and share their stories.

Schechter is a veteran of Washington's think tank scene and a political consultant. For more than a year, he had been thinking of establishing the "Immigrant Food" and planning for its operations.

Schechter is the descendant of immigrants from Germany and Austria. He believes that he has a responsibility to do an act to affect the anti-immigrant issues all over the United States of America.

"This isn't the America I recognize. ... Somehow it has become normal to disparage, to feel you can talk down to immigrants like immigrants are not good for this country. Immigrants have been the foundation of growth and vibrancy. This country has been great again and again and again because of immigrants," said Schechter.

He believes that food is a good way to fight back.

"Immigrants are feeding America. All of the industries that make food, whether it is the picking or the shucking or the meatpacking or the slaughterhouses, (or) in restaurants, the servers, the busboys, this is an industry that is dominated by immigrants, even if your restaurant is called McDonald's," said Schechter.

The diversity of the menu of the restaurant boasts a business that shows how almost twenty restaurants are merged into one. The menu of the Immigrant Food shows 9 fusion bowls and 5 vegan beverages. The business entices its diners to donate to advocacy groups supporting immigrant rights in the US.

The restaurant had a photo booth area where diners can identify where their families originated from and take selfies. People who used the booths get a text with their photo in a frame with the words "We are all immigrants!"
