Seen In San Francisco: A Clean, Well-Lit Place -- For Tacos

Joe Eskenazi

Tacos that sparkle

Leslie Nielsen -- you know who he is -- had an interesting observation about humor. He was a man famous for saying unfunny things in an unfunny way. And the result -- was funny.

The same goes with signage. You can take two patently unfunny signs, juxtapose them together, and get fall-off-the-chair funny results. Here's my favorite. Also, this is the best one I've ever seen with my own eyes.

So we couldn't help but be tickled by the above juxtaposition of a cleaner and taqueria's signage near the Stockton Street tunnel. Frankly, in that neighborhood, I'd gladly eat at the nonexistent Pete's Cleaner Taqueria.
