Mrs. Johnnyd has chimed in with an automat style affair:

...put in your quarters and reach in the cooler...

I suppose this could spawn a retro "Horns and Hardhats"... :wink:

aaaannnd back to the scatological:

"Chunks'n'Sauce" - ie the unfortunate result of a bucket of KFC and about a liter of 50/50 peach schnapps/OJ mixed.

Nasty hangover, too...

ah, high school.

This thread has brought me out of a month long hibernation.

I think Rocco and Chodorow should mend the fences and open a new restaurant,

The Frog and Durian

"There is no sincerer love than the love of food."  -George Bernard Shaw, Man and Superman, Act 1

 

"Imagine all the food you have eaten in your life and consider that you are simply some of that food, rearranged."  -Max Tegmark, physicist

 

Gene Weingarten, writing in the Washington Post about online news stories and the accompanying readers' comments: "I basically like 'comments,' though they can seem a little jarring: spit-flecked rants that are appended to a product that at least tries for a measure of objectivity and dignity. It's as though when you order a sirloin steak, it comes with a side of maggots."

 

A king can stand people's fighting, but he can't last long if people start thinking. -Will Rogers, humorist

Oh, these are too funny. I'm sure many of you have heard of Dirty Dick's Crab House and Awful Arthur's on the Outer Banks of North Carolina? They also have two gourmet nut shops: Dog Nutz and Try My Nuts. I swear. I've actually grown addicted to Try My Nuts's Nuts on Fire.

Anyway, my entries:

Botulism Bistro

Pizza Plague-- the new pizza chain that's spreading fast

The Petri Dish-- it'll grow on you

The Smoking Gun Cafe-- you shoot it, we serve it

Pappy's Goiter House

Chuck's Abattoir & Deli

Hair of the Dog Wine Bar

Frenchie's Laundry and Curry Hut

Mystery Meat BBQ Shack

Burgers n' Boils

Clappy's Public House

The Flatulent Flagon Alehouse

Soggy Bottoms Saloon

*sigh* My apologies.

Gruyere cheese angelhair please

And a vichyssoise and a cabbage and a crawfish claws.

The anagram genius server came up with a few promising ones:

COD ROW HO

CORD OH OW

DR OW COHO

ORCH WOOD

CHOW DOOR

CHOW ODOR

CROW HOOD

Chow Door has a real down-home appeal. The rhyming is nice too.

CHOW ODOR

That name would be nice if it was a Chinese fusion place. 'Chow' in Cantonese means stinky/smelly. :biggrin:

THAT explains why daddy always referred to his army food as chow.. never any other meals! He was in the pacific too...makes sense.
