For the same reason that French Fries are not called Belgian Fries or Baked Alaska is not called Norway Omelet. It’s not so much about where a thing comes from or even who invented a thing. It’s all about who makes a thing famous or why it becomes so well known.
However, like in all things there are exceptions. Example; Buffalo Wings are well documented as coming from a single restaurant in Buffalo New York.
