Shanghai: washing dishes

Unlike any western city, Shanghai apparently does not require restaurants to have sanitation facilities. This is one of perhaps 100,000 noodle houses without plumbing, sinks, drains, or toilets. Dishes and everything else is washed in buckets on the sidewalks, and the waste water is simply dumped onto the sidewalk at the same spot. After short time, much dirt, odour, disease.
