Bits of Bugs and Little Thugs
Insect themed restaurant with midget thug waiters
 
(+4, -4)
  [vote for,

Basically, it would be a smaller restaurant with walls covered in different preseved insect parts. Light menu served by rude midget waiters dressed in biker outfits. Specials menu would include some fried insect meals. Fun for kids? Educational? Or just an alternative Saturday night outing? You tell me ...

Why stop at decoration? http://www.amazon.c...107-8856815-5388504
There is athriving industry in Thailand exporting bugs to the best Thai restaurants around the world, and not for decoration. [UnaBubba, Mar 03 2001, last modified Oct 17 2004]

Not quite as good a name, but bonus points for actually existing. [egads, Oct 22 2004]

       Well, there's the Insect Club, a restaurant/bar/club here in Washington D.C. with an insect decorating motif. Back in my club kid days I went now and again for the music and the free bowls of popcorn grasshoppers.   

       (Now, looking to see whether the Insect Club has a webpage, I find out they shut down. Alas.)

       Hey there, table thirty-three has a birthday today! Light the citronella candles on their cake, grab your flyswatter, and let's ROCK and ROLL!

       Would they do rehearsal dinners? How about wedding receptions?

       One advantageous by-product: migdet waiters make the portions look bigger

       Reminds me of a tea shop in Trincomalee. Sat down at the smart black table. Ah - it's actually dirty beige when all the flies buzz off.   

       Wouldn't midge waiters be more in keeping with the theme?

       Washington eh? Well, I suppose every city has to use what it has an abundance of.   

       (at the insect club)... 'And if you look right above you, this grand specimen is the Alanis Goritis...'

       I'll give you a croissant just for the catchy name.

       Omigod I would SO SERIOUSLY EAT HERE if I came across this in the phone book. The world needs more establishments with these sorts of names.
