We have a few storefronts in our neighborhood that give us a chuckle every time we walk by.

| To give it context, this is a Creole restaurant. Not exactly a mouth-watering name choice. Perhaps better suited to a Bikram Yoga facility. |
 |
| This next one HAS to represent one of those lost-in-translation moments. Is this where you open a "shavings" account? |
 |
| Every time Mickey and I walk by this place, we both shout "BOILING!!" at the same time and giggle. This - hands down - has to be the lamest name for a restaurant. It's like naming your bakery "Baking", or your beauty salon "Cutting". |
 |
| OK, this might beat "Boiling" for the lamest name for a business ever conceived. Slightly better would have been "The Place", or even "De Place" (a real business by that name existed around the corner from us for a while). But no, "Place" is the best these people could come up with. |
