Eggslut

Eggslut is a food truck in West Hollywood known for its signature dish "The Slut", a coddled egg on pureed potatoes.

The Grand Central Market in Los Angeles where Eggslut opened a brick and mortar shop, was named as one of the top 10 new US restaurant's by Bon Appétit for 2014.

The restaurant's name has been included in a list of risqué names by KCET and the New York Times, with Eli Altman stating that having a boring name may mean that an advertisement doesn't attract attention, and 65 percent of respondents of a KCET poll stating they would be more likely to visit a restaurant with a "gross name". Samuel Muston wrote that "Eggslut" falls into a category of "quirky" restaurant names, but that "the collision of the word 'egg' and 'slut' doesn't exactly encourage the appetite".
