There is a hot dog vender that goes by Wally's Weiner World. The guy, Scott has pictures of himself on Letterman, during the Stupid Human tricks segment, stopping a fan with his tongue. He was also on wheel of fortune and has a picture of Vanna eating a wiener.

I ate three with spicy brown t'day. this is the standard for haircuts with my buddy. Free haircuts for Wally's.

There used to be a butcher shop and deli on Hampton Avenue in Milwaukee years ago, across from Timmerman Field.

It was called:

Wackers on Hampton.

Their motto was:

"Nobody Beats Our Meat!"

Fucking awesome!

Phatty's Snak Shop

Humble Bagel - I find something about that combination of words disgusting

Yeah. I do too.
Is it a hippie bagel place?
I bet it's a hippie bagel place.

Not only do I hate that name, but I get the feeling that it's the kind of place that the community would really rally behind if you or I were ever to defame it.

Fuck Humble Bagels.

There's a place in the W. Village called Pat LaFrieda that has a big chicken and cow on the side of their warehouse that appear to be saying

Pat LaFrieda Says Eat My Meat!

I laugh every time.

There is a Vietnamese place on Centre Street (I think) in Chinatown called New Pasteur. I always feel weird eating there because i always think, as you might, about the Pasteur process and how it might not have been applied to the food.

I am happy to say their food is awesome.

theres a chinese resturaunt about 20 minutes from my house called "yummy taste"

um. ridiculous.
