store advertising \u201cmung bean ice porridge,\u201d or sweet Cantonese congee with green mung beans, uses a metal slide several meters long to send the orders down to the customers waiting at street level.<\/p>\n<p>As the kitchen is located on the first floor of a <a href=\"https:\/\/dictionary.cambridge.org\/dictionary\/english\/residential\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">residential<\/a>
