Noun & Noun

While driving I noticed a restaurant, formerly a “family restaurant,” that’s been renovated and renamed Maple & Yolk. And it’s not the only Maple & Yolk: there’s another one, no relation, one state over.

Noun & Noun has become a familiar pattern for business names. You can play along with the Hipster Business Name Generator.

I suspect that Maple & Yolk must have tested better than Syrup & Albumen.

  2. speaking of hip and hipsters, I'm still thinking about a throw away line in On The Road, something about San Francisco being the only town where Blacks and Whites don't mind living by each other. That would explain a lot about SF being a Mecca for various groups.

  3. How about a Noun & Noun SF establishment? Fran & Cisco. Bar? Restaurant? Both?
