Many ballpark restaurants serve 10,000. Some busy airport restaurants go up to 20,000. -- Merritt Clifton Editor, ANIMAL PEOPLE P.O.

Guest guest Posted August 6, 2008 Report Share Posted August 6, 2008 It isn't even remotely close to being the biggest Chinese restaurant in the world, either. The Chinese takeout at the Seattle ballpark, where I have eaten a couple of times, serves up to 10,000 per night, & the Chinese takeout at the San Francisco ballpark is a heck of a lot bigger. -- Merritt Clifton Editor, ANIMAL PEOPLE P.O.

Guest guest Posted August 6, 2008 Report Share Posted August 6, 2008 Good point Merritt; drives me nuts how these journalists fabricate the truth when creating a story. Cheers, Jigs Ps. We are looking forward to a West Lake franchise here in Nepal that will no doubt have Screaming Slaughtered Goat Supreme and Baby Buffalo Boiled on the menu.
