OMG I wish I could have seen that! It was my favorite restaurant while I lived up there. I always tried to get my mom to take me there for my b-day. Of course I loved mexican food. My mom always said she wasn't fond of the food but she lived in California for a while. Now that I live in NC I get some real authentic mexican (heavy population in my area) and don't know what I was missing! But yah its a really neat restaurant.

I sure wouldn't go there. I get enough wierd looks and stares in rural eastern kentucky (even more when i'm out with my boyfriend). No need for anything more than looks...

I once saw a chinese restaurant called "The New Ho Toy".

Well, there's one down the street called "Vittles".

We have a restaurant not too far from here called Crabby Dicks. I've never been there. I have been to a Fudruckers though! Very good burgers! Could go for one right about now too!

I've seen a few pics of some strange ones.

Poo Ping Thai Cuisine
***** (a pub)
Fook Yue Seafood Restaurant

There's a chinese restaurant in Ottawa called Hung Fatt...It has the best food

Taco Tonto's is my FAVORITE place!! I go there ALL THE TIME!!

In Chinatown in downtown Portland, there is a restaurant called Hung Far Low

When I was driving to Salem, MA, I took a bad picture of a liquor store called Bunghole Liquors.

In Tampa there is a place called the Dogwater Cafe, and they serve everything in dog dishes.

I figured if it's there for the whole world to see, what harm can it be posting it here? Read the history of the store here.

I don't think I'd really want to eat at a restaurant called Dirty Dicks Crab House!

Can't think of any strange ones that are around here at the moment.

There's one in Kimberling City, MO. called The Bearded Clam.

I could not stop laughing when I read this. I've made that joke a lot, and it is very surprising to see that a restaurant is actually named that.

It's called the Old City Jail. I don't know if it's still open or not though.

We have the Big City Club. We used to have the Madhatter, we now have Knockin' Boots, hee hee....

Aw we have nothing unusual! Some funny names though!
