"In the distant East, there is a strange little restaurant that has turned down a Michelin three-star rating several times. The prices are steep: a bowl of egg fried rice with soup costs RMB 288. Oh, and I forgot the plate of kimchi. Even so, many people line up to get in. The restaurant doesn't take reservations; you have to show up in person and wait in line. Countless people fly in on private planes just to queue, though of course there's no place to park them. The service is terrible: customers have to carry their own dishes and clear their own bowls and chopsticks. Oh, and wipe down the table, too. Oh, God! The owner must be crazy." - Michelin Gourmet Magazine
