Problem was, an hour later they had to be raided again.
Damn you! LOL!
First sentence said something about ducking millions. I got a vizual and my mouth started watering remembering a fantastic Bejing duck (formerly Peking duck I guess) that I had at a fine restaurant in Hong Kong. The waiter individually carved the ducks at our table & placed the pieces on our plate. Probably a hold over from the days when diners wanted to count the number of legs their "duck" had.
No, but these were found in the fortune cookies in the restaurants.
The problem with raiding a Chinese restaraunt is, you still want to raid an hour later.
Dang it, you guys beat me to it! :^D
I'm thinking of raiding one right now, in fact. :-)
In the State of Michigan, with the most concentrated Islamic population outside the Middle East, you'd think undocumented workers could be found at felafel joints all over the place. But what kind of restaurants do they raid? That's right -- Chinese restaurants. Michigan State Police raided 17 Chinese restaurants, looking for illegal and undocumented workers. It would be unfair to target Arabs and Muslims. But, at a time when Islamic terrorism is at an all time high, no problem raiding places like Ho Lee Kow and Give Me Chow. Political Incorrectness is okay, so long as it has nothing to do with the protected class of radical Islam.
Then, there is Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) Special Agent in Charge Brian Moskowitz. Why isn't he investigating Middle Eastern restaurants, especially in and around Dearborn, for illegal and undocumented workers? Before he took over Detroit's ICE office, Customs raids of Muslim-owned restaurants and businesses were done and money-launderers pled guilty--like the owner of "The Sheik," who was running an international auto-theft ring and is now in prison. Now, raids of Mid-East restaurants, like La Shish, are done by the IRS. I'm sure Moskowitz doesn't want to upset his friend, "former" PFLP terrorist and eternal FBI award revokee, Imad Hamad--who was mighty upset by the raid of his fave shawarmeh joint.
Sounds like some illegal aliens are more equal than others. Mexicans and radical Muslims belong to the politically correct protected class. The ICE has easier targets to go raid in order to convince the public it cares about protecting the country. Like Debbie says, laugh at the laziness of our government in its selective (and pathetic) protection of our homeland since 9/11.

Sounds like a great opportunity for Chinese accountants.
391.11(b)(2) would be the most pertinent but several would cover the situation here.

Take your pick- dog, cat or dock rat.
There is Chinese restaurant in my area where if I order one of these exotic drinks while conspicously placing $20 bill under under my plate, the drinks come all night long and never show up on the bill. Try it. It might work. One who used to work in Chinese restaurant turned me on to that one so it might work in others.
I don't eat in Chinese restaraunts, period. I like fresh cat BBQ'd in hot sauce. LOL
Wun Hung Lo's should be inspected as well...
There is lots on those inspectors- inspectresses wanting to provide full services for just a few bucks.
Wow if they came to New York, they'd really clean up. A Chinese man offered my mom fifteen thousand for my hand in holy wedlock.
Now wait just a minute! Let's not have any bidding wars!
When the Mrs. and I finally got married she was making about 30k a yr.
Were you working at the time? What was your salary?
