Smith & Wesson

Last weekend, we had a family gathering on my wife's side in a Smith and Western restaurant. Honestly, I didn't know this chain existed until last week. Anyway, it's a Western themed restaurant, with a Western themed menu and an even more Western themed decor. I had to explain to my wife that the name of the chain was a pun on a brand of revolvers. Which is displayed on the wall of the very restaurant. I think Smith & Wesson was the very first firearms brand I knew about when I was a child, because I watched so many westerns and spaghetti westerns. We often played westerns too, my friends and I, with plastic S&W. Seeing this poster reminded me of this. And on a side note, I wish we had a restaurant chain like Smith and Western when I was a kid.
