The Last Time I Saw Macao - João Rui Guerra da Mata (2012) - Casa de Cha Long Wa, Macau

The Casa de Cha Long Wa, or Lung Wah Tea House in English (龍華茶樓 - lung wa cha lau in Cantonese) features in a scene where the camera focuses on the cashier counting up the till receipts using an abacus. I've never been but the restaurant appears to be one of those old-style tea houses that are hard to find in Hong Kong these days but appear to still operate unmolested in Macau. Most of Hong Kong's similar eateries (such as this one, or this one) have long since disappeared thanks to redevelopment.

This one in Macau occupies an old building on the corner of Avenida do Almirante Lacerda and Rua Norte Do Mercado Almirante Lacerda, right next door to the famous Red Market building.
