Trev Posted February 20, 2008 Share Posted February 20, 2008 There is chippy on the Albert Bridge Road in Belfast called 'For Cod and Ulster'. Was tempted to stop and get photographic evidence, but the group hanging around outside might not have appreciated being inadvertently captured on film.

SeanMacGabhann Posted February 20, 2008 Author Share Posted February 20, 2008 I remember a restaurant called "Thai Me Kangaroo Down Sport" but can't remember where I saw it - obviously Australia is the obvious candidate but for some reason I can't shake Bath out of my head Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/2682-good-barrestaurant-names-encountered/#findComment-81293 Share on other sites More sharing options...

annaj Posted February 21, 2008 Share Posted February 21, 2008 I feel I have to mention the "Ankor What?" bar in Siem Reap.It's pretty much backpaker law that you have to end up there after a day seeing the temples. The ceiling and walls are covered with graffiti by previous visitors. My favourite "Ankor Wat - more temples than you can shake a stick at" Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/2682-good-barrestaurant-names-encountered/#findComment-81446 Share on other sites More sharing options...
