    There used to be a Chinese restaurant (or what we call Chinese in Ireland, half of it was chips and curry) near me that had ridiculously cheap meals and the food was amazing. They only accepted cash and even though there was a dining area, the only people who ever sat there were the worker’s kids doing their homework. I came to the conclusion that it had to be a front for money laundering because the food was so good and so cheap

    Now its being gentrified :(

      Mob front restaurants are awesome. Some of the best pizza and sandwhich shops in Philadelphia in the us are fronts for the mob. Or were, 20 years ago, i haven’t been back in a long time.
