June 24, 2007 - Would you choose the ‘Fatál’ Restaurant?

fatal restaurant

Now this is the second in the series of funny names for a restaurant. This is the ‘Fatál’ Restaurant and in Hungarian ‘fatál’ means ‘wooden plate’. This name may not work very well in Singapore unless the food is superb and by word of mouth people tell another or there were always long queues day after day or on all weekends. In such casees, people will then not mind and thus disregard the name’s meaning about fatality (since fatal in english means causing or capable of causing death; deadly).

So this also tells us the power of words, the power of language.

But look at this advertisement that they have:

fatal It shows an angel pouring some beverage for you to your glass. What are your views?:) Expect nothing from them other than an ”angelic service”?

I love the man with the ironing board!! What’s he going to do? Iron out the problems in the kitchen that cause the fatalities?

or maybe he is a perfect husband and while her wife is out with her girlfriends (in the restaurant Fatál) he goes home to iron the clothes:)

I might choose the Fatal restaurant as the place to have a last meal. I’d expect that after I fnished the final bite, I’d be surrounded by a band of heavenly angels.

you wouldn’t catch me in there — and anyway I have an aversion to irons!

This restaurant was actually recommended to me when I was in Budapest- the person who recommended it said not to be concerned with the name :-) It was a great place with great food– I was glad I went!
