There's also a Chinese restaurant on the other side of Atlanta called "Tung Sing."
CT- Darn you! Now I want a 'rita, too. We really must split a pitcher sometime. Then do Karaoke. *snort*
Banna-- A significantly more 'fun' person than me once said, "All of us are in the gutter, but some of are looking at the stars" (or something along those lines). Buttita? REALLY? *mad giggle*

There is a street named Como in St Paul, and on it there is a cafe named "That Place on Como." It leads to no end of who's-on-first style conversations.

Down in NC on the outer banks, theres a small chain known a s the Try My Nuts Co. It's a store that sells mainly nuts and hot sauces. THey also have a very funny (although sometimes inapropriate) clothing line. The way they name their products is quite funny also. Ex: A bag of tralmix ith everything inside dipped in white chocolate = White Trash.

When I first moved to utah there was a bar called "My wife's place". 10 years later, they had painted over the "my" and replaced it with an X. I used to walk past it every day going to college.
We saw a "Gas and Go". The rest of that trip, to my mother's chagrin, involved rhyming variations that captured the gist of it.

That could be the last name - our bishop's last name is Dick. Yep, Bishop Dick. Straight face, y'all.

Straight face? Try keeping it with this one: My aunt's gynecologist was named Dr. Fillerup. This is the absolute truth.
Also, there used to be a podiatrist in Fresno (may still be) whose name is...wait for it...Dr. Frederick J. Kreuger. People kept stealing the sign from in front of his office.
Oh, also in Fresno, a veterinarian named Dr. Gene Poole.

I'm frankly surprised that nobody mentioned Smut 'n' Eggs. I have been told by a fairly reliable source, that ther eis such a place in Madison, serving breakfast food while showing porn.
Or was that a joke?

There's a used/consignment clothing shop in Bloomington called "AMUSED Clothing," with enough different fonts in amused for it to look like "am used."
There's also a Brave New Deli. Coincidentally (or not?) they're right around the corner.
And down the street from a coffee house called Soma. I was somewhat wary of the coffee at first--though I suppose as a drug to keep the population happy and stupid, caffeine may or may not be appropriate.

Providence has Legs'n'Eggs - would that do it for you? Only, it isn't the name of the strip joint - it's what they call their breakfast show. Breakfast buffet and strippers.

Just the other day, I was thinking "You know what would go good with these pancakes? A bunch of naked ladies, that's what." Thank god the the good folks of Providence have seen fit to fill that need.
Seriously, that seems...odd. How many people are head down to their local strip club for breakfast?
