Chinese Buffet Olympics

Posted on 12 August 2008

With all the hubbub surrounding the Beijing Olympics, a few local Chinese buffets have joined in the action by throwing their own special form of Olympic games.  Mr. Wang’s House of Potstickers has formed quite a formidable team of hefty eaters.  They challenged the folks over at House of the Rising Sun All Night Noodle Bar to an egg roll.  From the back of the buffet line it looked like some sort of bowling with spring rolls.  Unfortunately, neither team finished.  The health inspector was tipped off by a jealous Middle Eastern Buffet that wasn’t allowed to compete.

Fearing further governmental sanctions, the games were moved to a public park where community competition is encouraged.  The Korean BBQ Rib throw off went well with Roy O’Doyle taking gold for throwing his rib a record setting 80 yards.  At this point Mr. O’Doyle is representing Mr. Wang’s proudly with three golds and one silver.  He seemed upset when he missed gold by only one shrimp in the 25 meter shellfish relay.  Martha McCormick ended up with gold, her first and only after realizing that she is mortally allergic to crustaceans.  Our thoughts and prayers go out to the Panda Star team.  She was too young at 46 to pass in such a heroic manner.

The most touching story of the games, however, is the reuniting of former hibachi cook Yang Choy to his twin brother Yang Tsu.  They met after someone made an off-hand racist comment about how all Asians looked alike.  The identical twins shrugged off the remark once they realized that yes they do look a lot alike.  Since both of them were armed with large chef knives, no one else laughed.  They took silver and bronze in the chop shit up really really fast contest.  Gold went to a Mexican that was just walking around with a switch blade in the park.  He was arrested shortly after.  Officials say that he will be able to keep his medal fearing retaliation.

The last event of the evening, Rice Sculpturing, is about to start and I have money on it so I will sign off now.
