Funny signs from the Philippines

My friend Mike forwarded to me this email that originated from M. Pacheco. I thought it's very amusing so I am sharing part of it. It is about signs seen in the Philippines.
- the sign in a flower shop in Diliman called Petal Attraction.
- a 24-hour restaurant called Doris Day & Night
- Barber shop called: Felix The Cut
- a bakery named Bread Pitt
- fast-food place selling 'maruya' (banana fritters) called Maruya Carey.
- there is a Christopher Plumbing
- a boutique called The Way We Wear
- a video rental shop called Leon King Video Rental
- a restaurant in the Cainta district of Rizal called Caintacky Fried Chicken
- a local burger restaurant called Mang Donald's. In the Philippines, people call older men Mang so and so, instead of Mister.
- a doughnut shop called MacDonuts
- a shop selling 'lumpia' (egg roll) in Makati called Wrap and Roll
- and two butcher shops called Meating Place and Meatropolis
