‘Offensive’ Restaurant Sign Stirs Up Big Trouble for Small Business
Opening up a new restaurant with a niche cuisine can never be easy.
But a French-Vietnamese restaurant that’s set to open in Keene, New Hampshire, in March is running into a problem that could be unique.
The business has sold T-shirts and put up a sign in the window with the new restaurant’s name, according to the New York Post, but City Manager Elizabeth D**gon had concerns over the name being “intended to sound like profanity.”
D**gon also said the restaurant didn’t have permission to put the sign in the window advertising its name “Pho Keene Great.”

A restaurant must get permission from the city to put its name in the window?
Perhaps they should have gone with "Mother----ing Great, the left has no problem with that word.

Good one, but I have sneaking suspicion the restaurant knew what they were doing. Imaginative

I'm sure some see this as another 'dog whistle'. I'm just short of 77 and didn't know dog whistles were anything but dog whistles until recently. Live and 'learn' I suppose.
