[Mabelline]

Ouch...my butter spreader's serrated on one side!

[bloviatrix]

For a Brazilian restuarant, it's got to be....

Wax

[AndrewK]

Cleveland's Steamers

Or any place owned by some young, trucker-hat wearing Fox sitcom star.

This topic reminds me of the food court in the University Memorial Center at the University of Colorado in Boulder: the Alferd Packer Cafe!

(To the best of my knowledge, they never served its namesake's preferred dish for blizzardy days. Some of us wondered about the dorms on campus, though!)

Rocco's Last Meatball

Watch the movie if you get a chance, culinary bear. Gregory Peck's a very scary mad Nazi scientist.

I'm seriously thinking of trademarking the 3rd one...

"Those Aren't Raisins"

"BobbyJoe's House of Homestyle Hooves"

"Kallereez"

"Truck Droppin's"

"Col.Flanders' Rotissery Toenails"

and I'm spent.......

[Mabelline]

Okay, Mr. Chodorow's answer to el Bulli....el Criollo.

Ooh, radio7, wouldn't truck droppin's also be like Good Fellas Bar and Pawn?

Okay...better explain again; the Criollo I am referring to is the Argentine national horse. Just a joke, folks. I guess I need to up my meds again.

[Mabelline]

Wait! Wait...what about we disect the real name? Caviar--salty fish product. Banana---sleazy phallic symbol. Is this what they were getting at? Is the joke to subtle for us? Or did The Donald lend some of his "BrainTrust" to Mr. Chodorow for this? Is it a secret reality show?
