I ordered from a place where the crab ragoons came in a ziploc bag.
I still think about that meal.
That kid could be the kid at the place up the road. Don’t kid yourself that kid know more about what you want than you do.
I dont understand this kind of photos. Why do you just photgraph random people and load it up to the internet? Especially if they are a kids/teenagers and are feelling obviously unwell about it …Kind of a dick move. And Im not talking about the arrogant joke garnished with racism
I agreed until you called this racist, this is just observational humor about hole in the wall/family owned restaurants. Joke good, photographing kids bad. Even if OP is hypothetically racist, nothing racial was said so you are reaching for offense here
Its a Joke about a family living on the edge of poverty. The kids have to work in the business instead of doing their homework in a quiet place or go playing. And the joke is not working on the level “were are all in this shit hole together”, this would be fine. No it the arrogant “hey look at this poor kid living in this shit hole. Hahaha. Now bring me my food” level.
The racism is just the garnishment on top. Playing the cliches of people from asia.
Brother that’s more racist than the joke. You presumed everything based on your existing bias/prejudice.
Ok, so explain the joke to me. On what lvl is it supposed to work then?
Ah you’re simple, sorry I didn’t realize.
I’ll repeat what someone already said, read it slow now: Hole in the wall family owned Asian cuisine is typically way better than a large corporate Asian cuisine restaurant.
So the picture of a 13(?) year old kid inside a unpolished takeaway with the text “better done his homework” is a glorification of “family owned asian cuisine”? I dunno. I think this would look different
Only racist thing here is your mind bruh
Playing jokes on racial cliches, even if the cliches are positive, are still racist
The food gets a +10 buff if the kid has to stop doing their homework from the table on the corner to take your order and goes back to it after
+5 if their little sibling is riding a tricycle around the restaurant
+10 if the little sibling answers the phone
If you add a couple of toddlers in a fenced off corner, you’ve just described my local Chinese restaurant to a T.
That places food is beyond amazing.
+20 if the bouncer is a baby
The hole in the wall mexican food joint in my town that I love occasionally has a 12? year old girl at the register, and the other mexican food place that is staffed purely with adults doesn’t season their food, so this tracks.
You know it’s real authentic when you hand your credit card to an 11-year-old 😆
If you ever go to Ottawa, there’s a noodle bar in the ByWard Market that’s amazing. The guy stretches the noodles the moment you ask. Simple ingredients, amazing taste.
I must go to Ontario
What’s in Ontario?
Ottawa!
