Hoysala lion and Chinese lion

There was a restaurant near my house Caribbean restaurant , with guardian lions at the front door! 🙄  so I though ah! it must have been an Indian restaurant! No!  Thai restaurant or Chinese actually. Chinese restaurants have that lion in front of them.. not Indian ....

but I couldn't shake of that feeling - Karanataka, Indian... then it came to me - the Hoysala Lion!! Its different but still similar...  In my mind Hoysala lion was sitting on its haunches.
