Chinese restaurant gains fame -- because owner is an Obama lookalike

A restaurant in Guangdong, China grew famous and attracted many customers, simply because the owner, Cao Shunwen, bears a striking resemblance to American President Barack Obama.

Because of his appearance, Cao gained popularity and became known as 'Obashun'. Guests from other countries such as Hong Kong would travel all the way to dine at this restaurant just to see him. As a result, the restaurant's business has been thriving.

In the video, the report says:

"This restaurant in China is doing well in business because the owner looks exactly like American President Barack Obama. Because the owner Cao Shunwen knows that he looks like Obama, he changed his name to 'Obashun'. He also put Obama's photo beside his own photo up on the wall of his restaurant."
