The word "beauty" creates special problems with store signs. I wouldn't say it is pronounced as it is spelt.
When you do spell it phonetically there can be problems:
Of course most usage is spelt correctly like the sign below. But as a mathematician I can tell you from experience that "infinite" is a lot.
Pizza is big in Taiwan and so is American slang like this one.
When I saw the one below I thought is was a simple misspelling but looking closer you can see that this is a Tea shop and the owner has purposely created a new word from Tea + Pizza. It gets the attention that correct spelling would not. It certainly caught me!

Tea and pizza? That's unusual! How about pizza and beer? You could start a new trend there. Do they recommend what tea goes best with each pizza?
The signs are funny. You can offer your help and tell them it is free. I am sure they would be happy to hear it.
