    1. The words are supposed to mean that the toilet is available only for those who buy food at the establishment (written by someone for whom English is not their first language). What the illustration is supposed to suggest is a mystery, but what it seems to suggest would be considered impolite (at least) in the U.S..

    1. We think the illustration is meant to encourage us to read the words. As travelers, we appreciate the effort to provide signs in English, especially when we don’t speak the language of the country. (We wonder what signs in our country are really saying when they are translated into a foreign language.)
