We love our ethnic restaurants and greasy spoon restaurants because each one is independent and unique. One way they express their individuality is through their amusing and sometimes grammatically-challenged signs.
Here's a sampling of ones I've noticed in the Toronto area recently. If you have some photos of amusing signs in restaurants, please send them to me at [email protected].

The Vesta Lunch is tops for signs all 'round! Notice their very own sign with the words "Char Brolied"? Best spelling mistake in the city, I think. Makes me smile every time I walk by. :)
ReplyDeleteFunny! I didn't notice that.
