Taiwan will not concede!

Along with my friends, I recently visited a popular teppanyaki restaurant situated on the outskirts of DC, near the Potomac river. A young waitress came over and started preparing the cooking equipment. As she was doing so, she pleasantly started a conversation with some of my pals. After a few moments of light conversation, she asked us if we were from China. Since we are from Taiwan, we naturally responded that we were visiting from Taiwan for the summer. She shrugged her shoulders, and responded, "What's the difference? You're all Chinese."
