I've never thought about it, but why aren't there Native American restaurants the same way there are Mexican/Italian/Chinese/etc?

I'm native from Central America. Many of our foods haven't changed in a millennia. You can go grab tacos, beans, tamales and pozole and you're basically eating like an Aztec or native. My grandma was full Mayan/Pipil, I still miss her cooking

That is a good point about Central American cuisine. Its both current and ancient.
