Weird Denny's Sign thumbnail

When my husband I were walking through Akihibara, we saw this weird sign for a Denny’s that directed you down a dark alleyway. We were not brave enough to see where it led, but at the time we doubted it was to Moon Over My Hammy. Turns out (according to the Internets) it was actually a Denny’s and we totally missed an opportunity. (Tokyo, Japan, August 2008.)
