A fight scene taking place in a Chinese restaurant. Typically this involves everybody Kung Fu fighting, with disrupted dinners and broken china to the nth degree. Paying for the Action Scene, as always, is optional. Not related to Cooking Duel. Compare Chef of Iron and Frying Pan of Doom when the woks, etc., are being used as weapons. See also: Diner Brawl, Kitchen Chase. Being part of a Chop Sockey setting is, of course, not unheard of. Not to be confused with Wakfu. |

Twice in Lost Judgment, Yagami gets into a fight in a dining area controlled by the Yokohama Liumang (against one of their up and coming officers named Tesso, and against his newfound ideological rival Kuwana). Unlike other examples of this trope, it's an outdoor café rather than a full Chinese restaurant, and both times the triads clear out some space to make it a proper fighting arena rather than just throwing down as is. | |

Like a Dragon; if there is a Chinese triad involved in the plot of a game, chances are the heroes are going to get into a fight in an upscale Chinese restaurant (which the triads like to use as fronts for their illicit businesses) at least once. Examples include: Yakuza; Kiryu attacks a restaurant the Snake Flower Triad are using as a headquarters in order to rescue Haruka from their leader, Lau Kai Long Yakuza 6; Kiryu and his allies try to infiltrate the Saio Triad's headquarters (also a restaurant) in order to speak with their leader. They get caught and have to fight their way through hordes of triad goons. Yakuza: Like a Dragon; Ichiban and friends attack Zhao's restaurant in an attempt to save him when his treacherous advisor Mabuchi attempts a coup. Twice in Lost Judgment, Yagami gets into a fight in a dining area controlled by the Yokohama Liumang (against one of their up and coming officers named Tesso, and against his newfound ideological rival Kuwana). Unlike other examples of this trope, it's an outdoor café rather than a full Chinese restaurant, and both times the triads clear out some space to make it a proper fighting arena rather than just throwing down as is. |

On the old Seattle variety show Almost Live!, there was a series of kung fu parody shorts called "Mind Your Manners with Billy Quan". One of them, "Enter the Tipster", takes place in a Chinese restaurant, and the antagonists fight with chopsticks, take-out boxes, etc. | |

At the end of Kung Fu Panda, Tai Lung throws Po into an empty restaurant during the final battle, and as a result the panda throws several woks at the snow leopard, puts the Dragon Scroll under one of them and swaps them around so that Tai Lung will get the wrong one. Tai Lung just goes "screw it" and knocks away all the woks. | |

Resident Evil 6 features a Chinese marketplace and the restaurants therein as a recurring combat zone across all four campaigns. The microwaves and meat grinders are important to gameplay, but they are abandoned by the time you get there. | |

Warriors of Virtue, in which a Chinese chef is constantly doing Wok Fu when he's cooking (doing spins, kicking faucets). Actually does some good when another chef trips; Wok Fu Chef manages to catch the guy using his leg, brings him up, and then proceeds to catch all the falling food. | |
