That's so true. The first time I was in San Francisco and went to Chinatown we found this little out of the way restaurant with not a round eye in the place. Best Chinese food I've ever had.

yup, although I think I was a victim of racial profiling...the waitress quietly slipped beside me and placed a fork on the table...

That is so very common in Chinese restaurants! I heard it's because they (natch) want to get people in and out and the damn Occidentals take so long fumbling with the sticks, the restaurant could have the table turned over with new folks three times over. ... And I believe it!

Actually my older brother is very proficient with chop sticks. He'll go into a restaurant ask for sticks and they give him a dirty look. He starts using them and five minutes later the staff are all smiling at him and nodding assuredly.
