Picture of a cat on facebook page so assume pussy?

I actually find the name really offensive.

Why exactly is that funny and clever? Is there any council or landlord regulation? I could understand it if there was some clever reference but unless I'm missing something.... it is a restaurant. Which has chosen to name itself after the arousal fluid from a woman. That is not really the kind of thing I like to think about when going out for a meal. It also seems a really unnecessary attempt to be.... what? Controversial?


Really dislike it, really hope they change the name, certainly won't be going in there unless they do. I'm tired enough of the pornification of ordinary life without it seeping into posh sodding pop-up restaurants.

Did you know that definition before, or did you have to look up the urban dictionary in order to find out if you should be terribly offended?

its not exactly hard to interpret what something pronounced as 'pussy licker' means, urban dictionary definition added just to avoid the 'maybe that isn't what they mean' comments.


Very try hard, very tiring, and I hope its just a stunt in advance of opening as I can't imagine it increasing their footfall - if I walked past that name without knowing what it was, I would not be assuming 'innovative pop-up restaurant.'

    • Signed, and I will share it elsewhere, thank you for posting this.
    • There’s a couple of Gov petitions going on in relation to fireworks at the moment but this one is for banning them entirely except organised displays if anyone wants to sign. This is the only sensible way forward in my view. No one should be able to let them off in gardens or anywhere like that, it’s crazy. I am surprised some of you have said it hasn’t been as bad this year. I live near DKH Saino and it’s been absolutely terrible my way for days. This petition gained about 20,000 just in the last day or so so clearly the appetite is there! https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/732559
    • I'd have thought they could use some of  their income from hiring out a large part of Brockwell Park in the summer (therefore, as I understand it, preventing local residents from using much of it) to put on a firework display there  in the autumn which might somewhat make up to those residents for the previous loss of use of the park. And also generate goodwill.
    • Clicking on your name, I see you've made seven posts on here since you joined  around four years ago, and they've all been about local libraries. And none of the posts are  very pleasant. Care to share with the rest of us where  your particular interest in libraries comes from? Do you work in one of them?
