Ok, now you're just making me jealous that it's not sub-zero temperatures in Key West.
Supposedly the only frost free zone in the continental US

That's funny. I ran across a Chinese restaurant in Salzburg named the Fu King. We had a lot of fun coming up with advertising variations on that name.
BTW, that was around the corner from Schmuck Allee.

Did you ever watch the movie Traffic? It's one of my favorites, and the answer to your question is found in the first scene. Miguel Quintana, the founder and CEO of Xcaret in Playa del Carmen in Mexico, changed the Mexican pronunciation into Chinese for a humorous, racy restaurant name. Also, Xin Gao is a bona fide Chinese name, so there's that plausible explanation. It's not the real one, but still....

@SSmith1226 Xcaret website calls it Asian cuisine. Xin Gao is Chinese. The Mexican pronunciation means a dance YouTuber Sydney Watson recently referred to as "the horizontal Monster Mash".

OK. I caved. But I was running really, really low. And Sears doesn't send me the "big book" catalog any more. But I took only one package. They guy ahead of me in line had 4.

An Austrian comic paper today had recommendations for the gourmet in the times of Coronavirus... "Ten recipes for pasta with toilet paper". Things like "Boil pasta, rinse and dry. Mix in half-square inch bits of toilet paper, and sprinkle with hand sanitizer."
