Most annoying restaurant names? Thu, 02/4/10 9:17 AM (permalink)
So what's on your list of the most annoying restaurant names? This is an interesting read and we have all kinds of threads on both the Pro and Hot Dog forums that seek help with a name for their operation. Maybe they should ask what not to name their new venture.

    Being of Dogger heritage cannot see why they did not open one in Chicago.

    It is just funny that ketchup is held as a vile product in that town.
     
    Now Have lived in Lakeland,FL. an gradumacated from the fine High School. But for years always wanted to know how they stayed open.

            A funny or odd name will stick in your mind though. There used to be a mexican restaurant in St. Augustine, Fla called "Nacho Mamas".

                  Ketchup is not reviled here in Chicago.  Put it on your fries, put it on your burger, dip your fried chicken in it if you like.  Just don't put it on a Hot Dog.

                      Ha..A long time ago, I almost opened a resturant in Atlanta called "Cornbread and Caviar". I thought it was a neat name.
