El hijo de Mangu likes to make up things about the English to suit his prejudices. He really should visit the country and try one of the many highly rated restaurants now that he has apparently escaped his hated Cabarete.(we all make typos, so I won't ask about the size of EHM's pallet) Unless he made up that statistic just to take a shot at DR education, it would be interesting to know where it came from. According to TasteAtlas.com, their 100 best cuisine awards for 2024/2025 include the DR at #92, Irish at #80, Scottish at #78, English at #48, Canadian at #43, and American at #13.
