I made this point in another thread, but I don't think it is completely possible to be authentic in another country, especially the US and Europe. Not only do you not have access to all the same ingredients, but often local heath regulations prevent you from making it exactly the same. And of course local tastes and customer preferences usually, but not always, determine the taste.
