Plastic chairs outside the door...

I've blogged about this restaurant with Vasco, but this is one of the most interesting thing about Hong Kong.

This is one of my favorite restaurants, 清真牛肉館, a small diner selling Islamic food in Kowloon City. There is always a queue outside the diner and you have take a number when you arrived. The owner actually put a number of plastic chairs outside. of course, this is all illegal, but then it's a great convenience for the customers waiting. During peak dinner and lunch hours, the average waiting time is about 30 to 40 minutes.

Yes, it's worth the wait...the beef cake and curry egg dishes are amazing. And yes, the waiters are not very friendly.
