Even when Gothamist is half way around the world, we cannot get away from timely NYC topics. Yesterday, we wrote about the MTA's demand that F Line Bagels remove any MTA-related signage and decor from the premises, plus pay a fine, and a few hours later, we wandered into a "New York style deli" in a trendy Hong Kong neighborhood... that had a huge subway map and Metrocard behind the counter! Of course, the subway map is on its side, which makes it pretty difficult to really read, but we're sure that if the MTA's lawyers could find a way to convince an Asian country that copyright infringement was wrong, they would.

Haha, I've been there! I was at the end of a very long trip through southern China and I was craving an honest sandwich and deeply missing New York. I remember being satisfied with my sandwich, though it was pricey.
That's a bus map...you think you're so in touch with NYC but NOPE!
Oh snap! You got served....
Yeah, even I can see from that small photo that the routes are all wrong to be a subway map. I don't think the MTA will care anyway. An eatery halfway around the world doesn't dilute their brand. Nobody's going to be confused into thinking it was endorsed by or has any connection with the MTA whatsoever, unlike a New York deli.
Yes, that is a Manhattan bus map not a subway map.
Gothamist -- where, if you're lucky, you can get some facts with your errors.
