Thai-rific

Last night we headed over to Dee Why to one of our favorite Thai restaurants on the beach.  Dyllan provided Dan and I live entertainment (comedy act, dance act, animal education) the entire time.

Cheers!  Every chance Dyllan gets for a "cheers" she takes.. food cheers, drink cheers..everything needs a cheers!  She must have a lot to celebrate.

Showing us all the animals on the Zoo program- acting out each one.  Lucky she brought her hat as a prop.

Have you ever noticed the names people come up with for their Thai restaurants?  Not just Thai.. most asian restaurants have the most random/lame/uncreative names I have ever heard.  Really?  You are going to open a restaurant... go to all that trouble... money, sweat, and tears.. to open your very own business... a restaurant you will keep in the family for years to come... an neighborhood favorite.. and call it something like Bumble Bee Thai???  OR  Take a Seat Thai??  Then- there are a string of super similar.. yet still random and totally irrelevant names like: Lemon Thai, Red Onion Thai..

Then there are some creative ones.. kinda funny.. but really cheesy ones like:

• Thai Tanic  (oh and there is even one called Thai Panic - what? was Thai Tanic already taken, so you figured Panic would do?!)
• Thairiffic (this one is pretty clever)- and again since this one was taken there is also a Thai Terrific (haha!)

Then some really random ones...

• Tommy Thai Smile- WHAT?!  Can you imagine coming up with this name?  "Yep, thats it.  Great name"
• U-Thong Thai - again.. WHAT?  Does that mean something or did they just think that was clever??
• Thai in a Box - right.  duh. like Jack-in- the box.. but Thai food.
• Simply Thai- another very creative name
• Sailors Thai - yep, whenever I think of Thai food I sailors always come to mind..
• The Best Thai- ohhh so, this is the best Thai restaurant, I didn't know- good thing the name told us that, phew.

Is it just me?!  Or do asian food restaurant names baffle you too?!  Maybe they really do it for a good laugh.
