Chinese Rabbi

A guy from Brooklyn was in Hong Kong passing through the native quarter, and was surprised to see a synagogue. He went in and sure enough, he saw a Chinese rabbi and a Chinese congregation. The service was touching. As the service ended, the rabbi stood at the door greeting his congregants. When our Brooklyn friend came up, the Chinese rabbi said, "You a Jew?" "Yes, I'm Jewish," replied the Brooklynite. "Funny," said the Chinese rabbi. "You don't look it."
