    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. ;)

    • kevin

    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.

    • Alisa

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

    • Veronica

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

    • Ellen

    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.

    • Jessica

    Mmm, cheeeeeesy.

    • Steamy Kitchen

    And they play this song in the lobby:

    • kayenne
    • krysalia

    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.

    • Elizabeth

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

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

    • micha

    try the hot dog…………..;)

    • Jennifer

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

    Darn.

    Maybe the name STD was already taken?

    • Lesley

    Oh that is precious.

    • krysalia

    Elizabeth> oh thanks ! i see perfectly then :)

    • Deborah Dowd

    Do you thinnk it has a shot of being good?

    • David

    Well, thanks to you guys, I no longer having a burning desires to go there…

    • Fabrice

    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.
