Greasy spoon 苍蝇馆子
    2023-04-20  08:53    Shenzhen Daily

A: Can you get me something to eat? We ate lunch at some greasy spoon near the bus station and I am already hungry.

B: Sure. How about some chicken sandwich and a cup of orange juice?

A: Sounds great.

Note: This is a slang term for a “dingy small cheap restaurant” used since 1902. Such a restaurant often serves such cheap food as chips and fried chicken. For example: He used to hang out with his musician friends in a rundown greasy spoon on the outskirts of Seoul.
