Yesterday we stumbled upon this Martial Arts cafe in Chinatown. It was really cozy and and the design of the place was so novel. There were all these weapons on display, and cool tables which my dad says people in the past used to seat on and crowd around. Like, go watch the Ip man movie and you'll know what I mean. There was also this big table 2 tables away from us where a big bunch of PRC ppl were, and they were talking and laughing really loudly. I really felt like I was in China. haha. Anyway, the experience was kinda funny, because the waitresses dressed in gongfu attire spoke to you in clipped curt tones and when you left, they would shout out idioms to you (while stopping the whole cafe to a standstill), and clench one fist to an open palm in a sign of respect and for bidding a farewell salutation.
There was a fake (I examined it and found it way too light) double-stick weapon (called Shuang Jie Kun in chinese) behind me, which reminded me of what I learnt in my martial arts training camp last year:
