Fandom encounter in real life

Sharing this because I desperately need to make myself (and a few other people maybe?) giggle.

So I went to a Chinese restaurant to pick up a little takeout the other day, year of the Dragon and all, and since that was the first time I'd been to an actual Chinese restaurant since I started watching Sherlock, I was thinking as I approached the place, "Oh I'll have to make sure to look at the bottom third of the door handle to see if it's a good restaurant, just like Sherlock does, har har har."

So I get to the front door.

There is a rubber band wrapped around the bottom third of the door handle.

Not serving any purpose, just hanging out on the door handle in the bottom thirdish region.

Me: *stops dead, blinks* "...but, but, what does that mean?!??" O.o

Other customers: *edging away*

(In retrospect, I think it was probably a commentary on the state of the chow mein. XD)

omg if we could stalk The Rooftop. Surely, google satellite view might reveal it?? Where in heck was that filmed? Do we know? (Wales???)
