There are many reasons to hate Atlanta.

In the top ten is the fact that they allowed a soup and salad restaurant called:
Lettuce Soup-rise You
open for business.

This is just sick.

I met some people this weekend who told me that they ate at a buffet in Iowa called Terrible's.

They said it was pretty good.

I've wanted to open up a soup kitchen called Soup or Bowl. It'd have choices of bread bowls, cups and so forth.

Yes, I thoroughly enjoy bad puns & plays on words.

What a stupid name. Especially since everyone I know winds up calling it "ruddfuckers"



I just call it motherfucking burgers.

At one time there was an enterprise in Chicago called the "Lettuce Entertain You" chain of restaurants. Are they still around?

Like the record by The Jazz Butcher Conspiracy?

Based on this photo I think it is actually the very same place. I'm basing this mainly on the railings in front of the shop .

There are also a couple of references to Waterloo in the album credits.

I owned a coffee house in Reading, PA. It was called T-Bag's Dippin' House of Flavor.

Shoulda put more thought into it. The cops came by a lot.

Yes, though their restaurants don't go buy this name. Some of them include: Papagus, Scoozi!, Cafe BaBaReBa, Big Bowl...

They're good, but I don't see what's supposed to make them so special.
