In the UK some of our Asian shopkeepers are the best - some great banter.
However on first approach I know a couple who were not good with communicating and being approachable - why? Because they were used to being treated as lower class, or worse still, avoided.
Break the barrier and the banter will carry on as normal, in fact, it'll be even funnier because other cultures bring other angles to jokes
That said, I do see where you are coming from and my natural behavior tells me I am more comfortable with someone who is from my culture. However - I do avoid shopkeepers who I know hold terribly insulting and stone age views on women - that is not acceptable in my opinion and they are not welcome in my society.
