@Great-Big-Stees saidThere is a pub in Edinburgh called The Raging Bull (Welcome to The Raging Bull, an Edinburgh cocktail bar famous for our Espresso Martini variations...) It doesn't mean that there is a raging bull inside. Nor will we find pickled eggs in The Pickled Egg tavern.
“Some” might think it stinks.š¤š²
And no sour herring either - "Surströmming (pronounced [ĖsŹĢĖĖŹŹrœmĖÉŖÅ]; Swedish for 'sour herring' ) is lightly salted, fermented Baltic Sea herring traditional to Swedish cuisine since at least the 16th century. It is distinct from fried or pickled herring." I will spare you that.

@Torunn saidHow about you call it…wait for it…”The Pickled Punter”?š¤šš

@Great-Big-Stees saidI have made up my mind - The Pickled Egg it is. It's a subsidiary of Torunn's tavern. That way we can keep the two places separate.

@Torunn saidAnd it is quite easy really:

At The Pickled Egg there are no pickled eggs or anything like them. At Torunn's tavern, thanks to Ghost, there is an awful lot of different things, some of which I wouldn't try myself.
@Torunn saidRealistically how many people want to go to the Pickled Egg, or would know even what it was? Kind of like Filthy Pete's Restaurant, who would want to eat there?

@Very-Rusty saidIf it's a good tavern (or pub) it will soon become popular.

Honest to God, you live too much in reality. Let go of it and play along. š

@Torunn saidVery gracious of you Torunn.

I suggest two bars/lounges in the same establishment; with the Pickled Egg having the sawdust on the floor, dartboard on the wall, peanuts on the bar type of vibe. A place for those less refined, such as myself for example, to drift into in the wee hours?
@diver saidSplendid. And then we have the tavern with two excellent chefs, wine menu and white table cloths for guests with high expectations. I will spend time in both.
Very gracious of you Torunn.

@XRB saidHurrah!
I'll have a pickled egg with all the trimmings, and leave one behind the bar for everybody in the tavern.
