6. There's a restaurant in my town called Ketchup

I love ketchup, but having it as the name of restaurant turns me off. Not sure why.

68. I've been to Ketchup in DC at the National Harbour - YUMMY YUMMY

Honestly, we thought the same thing but we wanted to get food before the YES concert and there wasn't a line there.

The food portions were super duper big. And I love the ketchup styles they have. Definately get a plate of their french fries (we got the 3 types of fries that included Sweet Potato Fries). They give you this tray that has 6 styles of ketchup liek chipolte ketchup, maple syrup ketchup (great with potato fries) and a few other great tomato based dipping sauces.

If I ever get to that area again I would go there in a heart beat!

I'm not a vegetarian, but that day almost turned me - going straight from a funeral to them munching on ribs. *shiver*

Invent a nasty-sounding name, and I'll turn it into
a a very expensive plate of 5-stare cuisine.

Name it, and I'll find a way to make it TASTY.

I kid you not.

This convenience store has had, I would estimate, 15 owners and 15 names in the 15 years I've lived here.

This one isn't going to last as long as some of the others.
