Teaffee, Brooklyn. Because they serve tea... and coffee... and tea and coffee together.

It was formerly called Lolita's Child Development Center. But I'm not sure Lolita's World of Wonder is better.

Lolita's World of Wonder somehow reminds me of the friend who decided to change her life/career/etc. after passing a shuttered tourist trap with faded sign reading "World of Dreams Museum," and having a vision of her own dreams bottled, labeled, and sitting dusty on the shelf of a defunct roadside attraction.

Isnt that a play on shabby chic? Which I thought was a shitty fad that'd passed in the 90s but what the hey.

omg this pizza place near a friend's holiday house that we ate at like a decade and a half ago and was actually really bad pizza (as in, not bad but still good, not bad but edible, but bad *bad* bad)
Anyway it has since changed it's name and is now called 'Pizza D'oh'
http://www.pizzadoh.com.au/
Yes like in the Simpsons. apparently the sign outside is also in the same (or similar enough) font also.
Why the fuck would you do this? There are no other Simpsons references about it, so all that's left is that "D'oh" sounds like 'dough', and 'Pizza Dough' is a shit name for a pizza place.

Maybe they're trying to suggest that they're aware of how horribly they've screwed up their pizza.

― ⚓ (elmo argonaut), Friday, 12 July 2013 20:15 (ten years ago) link
i mean, someone has to have told them by now. do they care?
meanwhile i take my dog to a groomer called DOGGY DO'S which is only marginally "better" and almost certainly intentional

Teaffee is a family owned business founded by David Fernandez.
So where did David get the idea for Teaffee?
One day David was having dinner with his family when a waitress mistakenly refilled his tea with coffee
David had one sip and Eureka!
Teaffee was born.
