There seems to be a fondness for weird and punny names here in Seattle. Besides the infamous Golden Shower of Hits in Greenwood, I've seen these:



Chinese Place near where I live. No idea how the food is.



Pho place on Greenwood. Actually very good



While not a funny name per se, certain people in San Diego and elsewhere may giggle at this one....

The favorite of my sons is What the Pho? in Bellevue. ^_^

Chef at Wok isn't "real" Chinese so much, but they do have tasty handmade noodles, my big weakness.

Pho restaurants in particular seem to have fun with names here in Vancouver too. Pho 99, Pho Hoa (in darkest Walley), Pho Bitch Naga (pronounce it! - unfortunately gone - but also in Surrey)...
Places with Chinese names might also be rediculously bad puns - but usually in Chinese. I also remember a corner store (Lucky Grocery) whose characters actually translated closer to "got lucky in the sack" more or less.
