Even for “Engrish”, This is Incomprehensible

I work just south of Chinatown, where I saw this t-shirt on sale on Friday:

Walking Up “Roncey”

While walking up Roncesvalles Avenue to pick up my bike from the shop, I decided to take some pictures along the way. I posted my favourites in this Flickr set; you can also see the photos in the slideshow below:
