I worked at one of these places for a while. My primary duties: Delivery, manning the phones, being a native English speaker. I gained a lot of insight about the Chinese takeout industry.

Also, you've never lived until you've seen the owner's wife march out into the lobby and whack the shit out of some hood rat with a giant spoon.

I am guessing that the giant spoon was something like these

It was a massive stainless steel ladle used for the stock pot. Must be every bit of three feet long, including the hook on the end of the handle.

Ahh so that was the flavour I had a hard time identifying in my won ton soup
