Theme Day: Funny Signs
I always find signs in cultural areas of town particularly interesting because of the very literal translations that are often used, even with the simplest of terms. This sign is of no exception. To lure in those looking for a tasty Canadian/Thai/Vietnamese/Szechuan/Cantonese meal, it seems that "So Good Restaurant Inc." in Ottawa's China Town is relying rather heavily on their name and the signage. Was the inclusion of "Inc." (Incorporated) supposed to mean their food is really, really good and they mean business? I am not so sure. And apparently they couldn't make up their minds, either, what kind of restaurant they want to be. Maybe Chef Ramsay needs to step in and do a makeover.... Nonetheless, this hot spot is open for business and one day, when I'm feeling particularly adventuresome, I just might have to give the place a try. We all know that often the best food comes from the least pretentious of restaurants.

Better to have a bible? I hope no.
The thing that's 'So Good' at So Good is the Wu-See Chicken. It's actually better than So Good.
SOunds GOOD:) Thanks for the suggestion, Marion. I will definitely have to tantalize my taste buds now!
Signs for Chinese restaurants have the tendency toward being humourous, don't they?
