Working in Wakefield, was suddenly accosted by what sounded like an ice cream van, belting out the Batman theme tune.

Looked out of the window to see a mobile sandwich shop, "The Bap Van."

Well, in Durham there is Benis Kebabs, who fights a losing battle to stop people breaking off the B and turning it into a P.

"The Codfather" isn't that good a name but there used to be a Codfather 1, 2 and 3 in Edinburgh and people spent ages arguing about which one was best, that's meta chippying.

Karls Burgers, probably the best burger van in Cardiff. If anyone is thinking of starting a Breaking Bad themed chippy you can have ""You're Cod Damn Right" on the house

As students we used to frequent the Tung Lok Chinese in Preston, hereafter known as the French Kiss Chippie.

There's also this, of course. Means "happy Buddha" apparently. we believe you. http://www.phatphucnoodlebar.co.uk/

There's a fishmonger in Buckie called Mr Mair.

His company is called, "Eat Mair Fish", which I really like.

You maybe need to understand the Doric to get this???

There is a Wok This Way in Oakham - been there at least 40 years.

Down the road in Little Eaton is a Chinese called Happy Eaton, which still makes my smile for no obvious reason.
