Upside down couplet helps sell chicken wings

A grilled chicken wings shop in Nanluogu Hutong, or alley, in Dongcheng District of Beijing, is decorated with an upside down couplet, catching the attention of passers-by, May 5, 2011. The couplet says :"If you miss the chicken wings here, you have not been to Nanluogu Hutong." Nanluogu Hutong is famous for its old-Beijing style compounds. [Photo/CFP]
