@Sheila: Good point… I better do a drive-by or two first!

I’d want a condom if I ate at Chubby’s. But wouldn’t know what to do with it, yet I’d still want it. Afterwards I’d walk out itching all over.

Actually I think the gorilla advertising is rather brilliant. Think about it it, besides now being on a blog and people talking about it and spreading the word, Chubby’s is:

1. Saving money, maybe used towards the meals.
2. It probably is a hole in the wall and if you ever watch Diners Drive-Ins and Dives, those tend to be the best places.
3. Everyone sees it on a busy road.
4. Everyone will remember the name Chubby’s, either due to the erectile condition or being fluffy.
5. It makes people curious…you’re curious, how many other people in your are are curious enough to go to Chubby’s?

Makes perfect sense! Oh and good luck!

Yes, I would definitely think you should eat at Chubby’s. As you noted, it would make for a good blog post. And maybe you’ll be shocked by an amazing meal!

Or you’ll get some crap food as the ladies change shifts. Either or, a good post.

I agree with Kevin’s #2. You may find a gem of a restaurant there. Or you could just find really funny blog material.
I always think restaurants with any version of the word fat in them are brave and bold in this day and age.

@ Kevin / Judy: Very true, I do watch Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives and you never know, old Chubby could be the next spot featured. They have done a number of spots here in the Minneapolis area.

@ PJ: I’m definitely in. We move out of that neighborhood in 2 weeks so I better move quickly! The tough part will be convincing the Lady Friend to join me. It may be a solo mission.

Ok. IF you can find it and there are a few cars there, go check it out. Then go inside and look the place over. That will help you decide if you want to go there or not. My husband seeks out these weird places when we travel and I’d say we’ve had some really good meals.

My first thought was this is probably just some creepers address. Might want to see if they have anything else on the menu first. Like herpes.

Go. Chances are, you won’t be disappointed. I’ve been to some restaurants that advertise with hand-written signs like this one, and you will realize that what they save on advertising goes into their food.

Apparently Chubby’s has one Yelp review, with 5 stars, in which they state that Chubby’s doesn’t advertise much. ;0) They use kosher meats and bake fresh cookie and mini muffins daily. They also have squealers but I have no idea what squealers are. Maybe you could go eat one and explain it to me.

@Eleanor: I saw that one single Yelp review. I have no idea what a squealer is either! And they don’t have any kind of web presence from what I can tell, no website, facebook, etc. They obviously need some marketing advice so if the food is indeed good then maybe I’ll offer my services!

My curiously would get the best of me. I would take the risk if for not other reason then to see what it was all about. If you do find it, I can’t wait to see what you find.

Now you have to go because we are all dying to find out what the dealio is with Chubby’s. Take lots of pictures.

I agree, this definately requires a further psot of investigation, if only to learn what a squealer is!

I went to “Pie Hole Pizza” on some shady advice, and was pleasantly surprised. Maybe Chubby’s will give you a chubby?

You won’t know… until you go…

That’s just how they suck you in!

Some big multinational throws up a charming hand-written sign and here come all of the hipsters, not even knowing the difference.

It’s just like when the big movie studios put Michael Cera in their films and then do opening credits that look like colored pencil and stencils.
Katy Anders recently posted: Children & Priests & Lesbians… Oh My!

I don’t see the problem! I mean, it seems legit and honestly what is wrong with being told to head through the kitchen, down into the basement, and to “make yourself comfortable” while a large woman smoked over a stove upstairs stirring a huge pot of what looks like chili? Just ignore the “rust” colored stains next to the chains in the corner. I promise, they’re not about to cook YOU or anything…they just want to feed you…yeah…feed you.

I would go and look for the restaurant just because I hadn’t noticed it and would want to check it out otherwise it would bug me that I had never seen the place………that said if I walk into a place that is like what Jewels discribed then I would leave pretty damn quick……….lol

Chubby’s – a possible euphemism trap?
alaina recently posted: Retail Therapy.

You should definitely check the place out. But remember – you cannot mock small hand-written signs that aren’t even fit for a yard sale if they actually succeed in making you go eat at Chubby’s. Someone in marketing deserves a payrise.

It almost appears to be some kind of code, probably amongst drug dealers.

But yes, you HAVE to go eat there.

I would be dubious of eating anywhere called ‘Chubby’s', just as an added concern.

Find it, go for it, write about it!

Have you seen the movie, Bridesmaids? I haven’t either, except for one brief stop on my channel surfing the other night to see the, um, bridesmaids, I guess, all go to eat at what they claim was a Brazilian restaurant. Afterwards there is a CRAPTON of…see what I did there? But srsly, they throw up and poop themselves a lot after eating there. Essentially I’m taking the longest route possible to say this is probably what will happen to you if you eat @ Chubby’s.

there is nothing wrong with chubby!
