Almost forgot DoDo's Chicken, and Chatter's ( I hate this name for some reason...oh yeah it sucks).
I'm cool with Yo' Mama's Soul Food though.

143There is a mexican place on Lawrence that is called 'Chicken Run'.
I think someone should have rethought using the word 'run'.

they're opening one of those here soon and supposedly they have local bands play there, but by that i don't know if they mean local bands or crappy open mic hippie jam shit.
I'm excited for this Potbellys. I think it is the same chain that has a store in Evanston. They make fantastic Milkshakes.
And tasty sandwiches. I like Potbellys.
Well you should like Potbellys- there are more calories in one of their "specialty sandwiches" than in a Big Mac.

145My sister used to work in a place called Chipshop NYC in ... well in NYC. Perhaps some of you have dined there and met my sister.
What an odd thought.
This name is not rubbish in any word pun way but just rubbish in a mind numbingly dull way.

I ate there three days ago.
It's a little like a British T.G.I.Friday's in there. But anyplace serving Southampton gets a lot of leeway. NC.

Cock's
Crappito's
Maybe Steve or Brad will remember this, but there was a douchebag on the Electrons Year One who did a great fake italian of the owner of Crappito's Restaurant calling his mother in Italy that usually had us in stitches.
Loosely, it went: Hey, Mama Crappito, I come-uh to amereeca where I bring-uh all the Crappito family recipes. I make-uh nice restaurant where I serve the spicy-uh meatball and the Crappito Speciale Shrimp Scampi! I fly in all the ingredients from-uh Sicily. But mama, nobody-uh come to my restaurant. Mama, I dohnna understand why they no come to Crappito's.

149There is a place in Fort Collins, CO, called Cheeba Hut. It serves.......you guessed it, "toasted" subs.
The best-known place in Northern Colorado for Rocky Mountain oysters is this place called Bruce's Bar. This name of the establishment means nothing, but it's located in a town called Severance. Severance.
