Sign posted to entrance of Mexican restaurant. "No" is meant here, of course. This reminds me of a sign I saw in Washington DC many years ago, "Chinese Delice." Lousy word choices, certainly, but the proprietor was probably thinking of the French délice, as in "délice chinois," which may or may not have a sexual connotation, or "délice de chine," as in the name of a Chinese restaurant in a suburb of Paris, Montreal and who knows where else. See also, this.
