Means Rat Sh*t Chili (the truly hot variety) Also off Soi Convent is a restaurant called the Eat Me Art Restaurant, located upstairs of an art gallery of the same name. Apparently very popular with the gay clientele... |
I was in Salzburg, Austria in 2000. While trying to find an Irish pub, I walked past a bar/club or whatever called HELL.

E A T G A S Despite many trips on this Interstate, so far I've managed to resist the temptation to stop in. Any recommendations? :) |

Yesterday while driving on Hwy. 206 near Chester NJ, there was a roach-coach type vehicle parked near a VFW post called "The Wee Wee Wagon" (with a couple of dancing hotdogs painted on the side).

In Ueno, Tokyo there is a bar near the subway station called "The Church"

A Chinese eatery in Cambridge called Poo Poo Hot Pot. Somehow with that name, I did not go in.

Norman, Oklahoma has a bar named "The Library", right across the street from the OU campus.
There's a sandwich joint in OKC called "Someplace Else". Neither is particularly suggestive of either cuisine or entertainment, but they do sorta spell out a student's choice, "Ya wanna go to the Library or Someplace Else?" |
Legal Grounds, a store front law office and coffee bistro in east Dallas!
