Bali Stick

Remember Redgum’s classic 1984 hit I’ve been to Bali Too? Well you don’t even have to go to Bali to see this ballistic PSN, spotted in Kensington NSW by Josh Ferrett.

Déjà View

I was certain that I’d already posted this restaurant, spotted on the Gold Coast QLD. Strange.

Wok ‘n’ Bowl

A new addition to our expansive collection of ‘wok-related’ PSNs. This one is pretty Wok ‘n’ Bowl, and was aptly spotted by Ben Pearce at the Soundwave Festival in Homebush Stadium NSW.

Wok N Roll

The perfect Pun Shop Name for the Asian restaurant inside the Annandale Hotel, Sydney’s premier live music venue. Spotted by first time punter Dom Gil.

Seafood and Eat It

“I’m on the seafood diet.” Both the punchline to an ancient joke and a decent PSN. ‘Seen’ at the Norton Street Italian Festa in Leichhardt NSW by punter extraordinaire , Renée Keogh.

Food for Thought

As you tuck into your delicious lentil casserole, you can think about how clever this Pun Shop Name is. Spotted in Covent Garden London, by a carnivore friend who I’m sure didn’t eat there, first time punter Angus Ross.

Mrs Sippy

Huck Finn and Tom Sawyer were planning to catch a catfish in the Mississipi for dinner, but instead decided to go to Mrs Sippy for a braised octopus, chorizo, chickpea and baby spinach salad. Spotted by Nadia McCrohon in the Deep South of Double Bay NSW.

Wok On

‘Wok’.. one of our most popular Pun Shop Name ingredients. Try typing ‘wok’ into the search bar at top right. Here we have Wok On, spotted by first time punster Mario Dreosti in Palm Cove QLD. Wok on!

Eataly

How interesting to have the same Pun Shop Name sent to me, within a few days, from completely opposite sides of the world. Here’s a little piece of Eataly on Kingsway in London UK, spotted by first time punter Kath O’Shea. Not to be confused with this Eataly, on 5th Avenue, New York City.

All Fired Up

Spotted at the Adelaide Cabaret in South Australia, we’re all fired up about this mobile pizza joint. Thanks to Georgia O’Brien for taking the pic. One of those interesting cases where the same PSN works for two totally different businesses.. here’s another All Fired Up.

Wok ‘n Roll

All the way from Opelika, Alabama USA, comes this rockin’ PSN for a Chinese/Japanese/Thai (oh, and Southern American) Restaurant, spotted by punster extraordinaire, Marc Burns. It’s good.. but certainly not our first Wok/Roll combo.. click here for a few more.

Eataly

It’s fitting that our Italian connection, Linda Saffioti, would find this restaurant on 5th Avenue, New York. Are those ‘legitimate businessmen’ members of your ‘family’ Linda?

Four Ate Five

April 12, 2011 Leave a comment

I had an amazingly delicious breakfast here on the weekend – highly recommended, but busy, so get there early. You’ll find Four Ate Five on Crown Street in Surry Hills NSW. From what I could see, it’s staffed entirely by hipsters, so bring your skinny jeans and/or beard. Interestingly, not far from ‘Six Seven Ate‘.

Ciao Thyme

Either this little Italian eatery is paying a fond farewell to an aromatic herb, or it’s time to eat. Spotted by Simon Bloomfield on Darling Street in Balmain NSW.

Juan in a Million

Let’s hope this Pun Shop Name is referring to your chances of finding a better restaurant, rather than your chances of getting Salmonella. Spotted in West Palm Beach, Florida USA by Jonathan Schneider.
