Question Weird names for restaurants
When I was in rural England , I noticed that there were many small pub-restaurants with names that appeared to have no rhyme or reason to them.

The Rat & The Carrot was right around the corner from where we were staying. If you can put two unrelated things together, probably it'll turn out to be a pub somewhere in GB. So what would your restaurant be called?

How about Meat & Greet?

Squat and Gobble. People must like the name, because they now have three locations in San Francisco.
