Funny Jokes - Olie's Chinese Restaurant You know how every now and then you find an incongruity in business names? Well, here's a doozy. "Olafsen's Chinese Restaurant" Upscale restaurant, too, that had obviously been in business a while. I asked myself what on earth someone of obvious Norwegian heritage was doing opening up a Chinese restaurant, unless maybe it was by marriage.
Ate there and it was delicious. Asked the Maitre D', who was obviously oriental, about the name. Turns out he was the son of the owner. When his dad was a young man he emigrated to America. As he was standing in line for immigration services the employee was taking names and filling out the forms for the people who didn't write English. He had just finished with a Norwegian group, moved down to his dad and asked his name and he told him: Sam Ting. And the rest is history. ------------------------ Yahoo!
