City Wok is a Chinese restaurant and small commercial airline. It is run by Tuong Lu Kim and was first seen in the Season Six episode, "Jared Has Aides".

Background[]

When Tuong Lu Kim pronounces the name of the restaurant, it sounds as if he says "shitty wok", due to his thick accent. Other South Park residents and reporters have called it "shitty wok" as well.

City Airlines[]

City Airlines is also owned by Tuong Lu Kim. When Stan calls for City Airlines, Lu Kim changes the logo board to City Airlines and puts on a pilot cap. He had only one airplane, which crashed in "It's Christmas in Canada". It was a yellow Cessna with a tail number 432G.

Cock Magic Fights[]

Trivia[]

  • According to the DVD commentary on the episode "Jared Has Aides", City Wok is a real restaurant in Studio City, Los Angeles, California. Trey Parker, Matt Stone, and the staff of South Park Studios have ordered take-out from the restaurant in the past, most notably on break during the filming of their movie Orgazmo; according to Parker and Stone, when they called the restaurant, they laughed when the employee on the other end pronounced the restaurant's name as "shitty wok", and called again numerous times just to hear them say "shitty". Years later, Parker and Stone got permission from the restaurant to include a restaurant named City Wok in South Park. There are also locations in Palm Desert, CA, Colby, KS, and Denver International Airport.
  • In the Mandarin Chinese dub, this location is known as "鸡野家" (Pinyin: Jī yě jiā), parodying Japanese fast-food chain Yoshinoya (吉野家). The running gag lies in the word "鸡" (lit. Chicken), a slang term for "slut" or "coquette".
  • In the Japanese dub, this location is named "金峰軒" (Kinpōken). Tuong Lu Kim pronounces the name as "ちんぽけん" (Chinpoken), which sounds like "penis".
  • In a parallel universe in the special Joining the Panderverse, the restaurant is known as City Woke.
