Really now, they could have at least switched the order of the letters...then it could be OUR place. David & Val!!!

I don't know, I hear it's pretty good.

Order the crab salad.

One place in the States that I can't understand the appeal of is the Cheesecake Factory. Why anyone would want to patronize a restaurant that's equating its food to mass produced assembly line crap is beyond me, but maybe I don't understand because I'm not that crazy about cheesecake in the first place.

Mmm... the many flavors of venereal disease. You would've thought they'd think or something more appetizing.

I burst out laughing when I saw this, it may be that if a French person saw a restaurant named M&V in the US, they'd have the same reaction. ;)

I have a burning desire to go there.

There used to be a Chinese restaurant by my parents house called South Wind, the source of endless amusement to my 7-year old, and hell, who are we kidding, current self.

the picture made me giggle.
Matt's comment got a laugh. :)

I've read interesting things about this restaurant. I'm itching to try it.

If that restaurant was in Chinatown, it would be called "Number One VD" or "VD A-OK!" or "VD 2000."

(I'm Chinese so perhaps I get a pass at making fun of own my race?)

FUNNY...especially Kevin's "burning desire" to go there. :0)

There used to be a mom-and-pop restaurant in my hometown called "Ralph's." It didn't last long.

And I never understood the naming of that now closed cafeteria-style restaurant Furr's.

Anything furry would make me ralph, for sure.

VD...the gift that keeps on giving.

Mmm, cheeeeeesy.

And they play this song in the lobby:

would you please explain what is VD for your non native english speakers ? :)

I understand from the comments that this is some kind of disease, but thats all.

krysalia,
VD stands for venereal disease, i.e. sexually transmitted diseases.

How proud I am that this ends up being my first comment.

try the hot dog..............;)

ah, the other comments beat me to both an "itching" and a burning reference.

Darn.

Maybe the name STD was already taken?

Oh that is precious.

Elizabeth> oh thanks ! i see perfectly then :)

Do you thinnk it has a shot of being good?

Well David, you would be wrong to let these shameful jokes deter you and sully this establishment's good name. In fact i hear it's a pretty good seafood restaurant and the clams there leave quite an impression !

Sorry, couldnt resist.
