Near Philadelphia PA, there’s a road that takes you past the following businesses:
Willy’s Oil
House of Wang
Lee’s Hoagie House
Roman Delight
You’d think someone would have noticed the juxtaposition by now (they’re not really THAT close, but when you’re a bored college student out in the Philly burbs, stuff sticks with you. 
)

House of Wang

We have a Tony Wang’s (Chinese Restaurant) out on the Rte. 30 strip here in Lancaster, and every time I pass it I read it as Tony’s Wang.
On the topic of misreading restaurant signs…
In Ottawa there is a Chinese place called Hung Mein. Which is in the same plaza as a Lebanese restaurant, and an adult store.
I can tell you, I misread several signs in that plaza every time I pass it…
We have a Thai restaurant in Dana Point called “Thai This.”
Wow, some good ones upthread.
And just yesterday I passed one I’d never seen before:
CANCER’S ENTERTAINMENT
Before you ask, I don’t know what kind of a business it is.

Many years ago (1994 or so) I passed by a store in downtown Philadelphia called CONDOMNATION. I don’t believe it’s there anymore.
[/QUOTE]
It was there in 2003.
The fish’n’chips closest to my flat is the Chip Chik Inn, with a logo of a roasted “chickin”

I just saw one up in Mammoth Lakes called Thai’d Up. Slightly kinky…

There’s a store in St. John’s* called Hostyle, which can, I suppose, be read as ‘Hostile’, but which I always read as Hoe-Style.
[/QUOTE]
Similarly, we have a Thai Ho restaurant
Dresden, Germany, has (or at least did in 2003) a skateboarding shop called FUCK YOU, TOO.
Passed by a bar in Elicottville, New York years ago named “Ski Heil”.
I know it’s a greeting skiiers use, but at first glance I thought it was a pun evoking Nazi rallies.
I wonder how many of the stories of Chinese penis-themed restaurant names (Hung Far Lo, Wang Dong, Suk Mi Dik, etc) are true.

There’s a beauty shop in a suburb of Cleveland called “Gu Gu Bumps.”
I have no idea what it means.
[/QUOTE]
Update: It’s actually called Goo Gu Bumps. But the green canvas canopy over the door says “Hair Bumps.”
I have no idea what *that * means.
I wonder if you can walk in and ask for some hair bumps.
There is a dry cleaner here intown called Doche Cleaners.
In Long Beach (CA) there’s a Vietnamese restaurant named “My Dung.”
I often wonder what the food tastes like - it’s been open for a long time, so My Dung must be pretty good…

There used to be one around here called Thai Phoon.
My ex and I used to giggle whenever we rode the bus past Yung Ho Tou Chiang restaurant in San Gabriel. Never did get to eat there, though.

On a slightly different note, there used to be a fireproof storage warehouse in Cambridge, Massachusetts, near the Necco factory (it may still be there, but this was years ago). The phrase “fireproof storage warehouse” was painted on the side in large letters. From the vantage of the nearby traffic light, a corner of that building or another occluded part of the lettering so that it read “ireproof rage warehouse,” which always cheered me up. If it’s still there maybe I’ll get a photo when I’m in Boston at the end of the summer.

It was there in March! We saw it when we were there visiting over spring break. And yes, from a certain angle, it does look like ireproof rage warehouse.
And then there’s the restaurant called No Thai that I started a thread about a long time ago, in Michigan.

Similarly, the placing of a street lamp or something transformed the words “FACULTY OF ARTS” into “FACULTY F ARTS” on a building in Auckland city. Unfortunately, something’s changed there, so it’s no longer visible.
I remember a store in Korea called “The Dumb.” They may have sold shoes.
We have Fashion Boomy. I haven’t shopped there; I’m afraid my clothes might explode or something.
We also have Dick’s Hallmark store. I always get the giggles thinking of a big burly guy with a cigar selling frilly wrapping paper and girly cards…
