The above post reminded of this new-gone restaurant in the Philly burbs
It's About Thyme and the hot-dogs-n'-beer pub (which may be a chain) Frank-n-Stein's |
Don't know if it's still there, but there was a topless donut shop in Fort Collins named "Debbie Does Donuts"
|
I really like The Stinking Rose, a restaurant in San Francisco that features a lot of garlic (i mean a lot of garlic! :)) They have "vampire fare" on the menu (if you want it served without garlic) :)

HAAA! These are good! :D
Hmm... what can I add... well, I've always gotten a kick out of the "Frank & Stein" (hot dog and beer) stands at the airport.... and for Thai puns, around here there's a THAIPHOON. One that really made me laugh (but made others groan!) was a seafood restaurant in Miami called "Sea Señor" ("si, señor," or "yes, sir"). I don't know if that's still there. Another one I liked that was maybe not really funny but still clever was "Darwin's Theory" in Anchorage, AK, where the logo was of a monkey sitting in "The Thinker" pose holding a human skull. I had a great ashtray from that place that a lousy ex boyfriend kept.... GRRRRR :mad: ;) Finally, some that I never thought were funny (weird, yes; humorous, no) but others really get a kick out of when I mention them are the bars from my college days at the U. of Florida, most notably the Purple Porpoise -- which behind it had "The Lavender Mullet" (and no, these were not gay bars, ha!). These were owned by the same people who owned The Copper Monkey. :confused: ETA: skofarrell, yes, the Stinking Rose!!! Great place! :) |
The last time we were in London we ate at "The Slug & Lettuce", in the theater district. I think it is a chain.
Particularly funny for us, as we have some BIG Banana Slugs here in Humboldt County, CA. Kate |

Fu King Chinese

I don't remember where I saw it, but...
'Seoul Man' |
There's a small Irish pub in Las Vegas called "Three Angry Wives". Thought that was kind of funny.

in Honolulu
I did a double take when I saw the sign for this Chinese place in Honolulu (not far from the U of Hawaii)...
Fook Yuen |
A lot of the Chinese ones have very pointless and basicly random names.
-Destination Restaurant -Excellent Wok -Visage Cuisine Can't forget this one: :D http://www.dannoll.com/Photos-2001-2...ides/phat.html |
Phukit Thai
If pronounced incorrectly it could sound like a bad word. Killer resturant on 2nd St in Long Beach.
|
Restaurant in Richmond, VA in the late 70's called "I Dunno". Another one opened up a couple miles away called, "I Dunno Either".

Hard Wreck Café, Ueno, Chuuk, Federated States of Micronesia. Near the Truk Stop hotel and restaurant.
(Chuuk, previously known as Truk, is one of THE destinations for wreck divers, as there are about 60 diveable WWII wrecks littering the lagoon floor.) |
