Description

The fast-food chains in the centre and the right hand parts of the picture are too famous to merit any comments. The big sign on the left of the picture is for a weight loss clinic. Again: modern China. :-)) If you go to Shenzhen, walk down the alley going to the right. For those of you who enjoy shopping, you will find lots of branded goods at prices unimaginable in the West (don't tell Ralph Lauren or Christian Dior) - lol.

Magnificent - if one dines often at the right two establishments they will certainly need the left. A most fortuitous location for the clinic :-)

I guess the weight loss center sign has to be big in order to try and get their attention, almost t like the Surgeon General warning on each pack of cigarettes.

I thought at first the big red sign was for Shenzhen fried chickHEN. A funny (or tragic) shot depending on how you look at it.

Maybe it's a warning that if you eat too much fast food you'll need to figure out how to lose the extra weight! There can't be that many people who need these services - the only overweight people that I saw in Asia were sumo wrestlers :)

Heheh, usually they are imitations...but sometimes they have the real thing too. Ahhh, it looks as though capitalism is making in-roads on mainland China at last! :)
