I wonder as well.
Perhaps its colomentality and anything that is not John, Jack or Mary is programmed to sound funny

If you do the literal translation of these names to English, you would find the humour in it. Otherwise. . . . . undecided

Damn!!! thats my hood when I was in 9jja. But i think you missed Baale, its either after Miccom or Bakery. Egbeda is my home. Brap! Brap!! grin

I was there when Chiquita and Friends were opened. Good memories .

I remember one day I went to Chiquita to eat. I was in a rush and was starving so much that I forgot to take some cash with me. After ordering food at the counter, they told me to pay up and I checked my wallet, there wasnt even paper inside talkless of money. It was during rush hour and there was a big queue. I had to tell them to take their food back . . . . . . . . my mouth was already watery. It was really embarassing. I think that was the last time I was there sha.

thank God you had to pay before eating, I would have been washing plates in the backroom for a long time becuz the amount of food I ordered that day was out of this world.
