A Chinese restaurant in Berkeley lists Human Brawns on the menu.
My all time fave, however, is at the oddly named Guadalahonky's in Draper, UT. I always imagine Samuel L. Jackson walking in and ordering the mother f**king "Honky Finger Food." |
I find the awkward translations to be the funniest.
"Biche" was translated as "hind of hinde" at an unmemorable bistro in Luxembourg... |
Becoming popular now in Orange County is "Effen" Vodka. What brilliant marketing person came up with that name? After hearing "Gimme another Effen vodka on the rocks" everyone in the bar wants to try it, if only for the novelty of ordering it!

In the South Africa restaurants, among the steak sauces available are peri peri and "monkey gland" sauce.
Peri Peri is okay, haven't tried the monkey gland sauce......don't think I will! goodo |
'Drunken shrimp' in HKG had my wife going, "Did the shrimp actually drink?" :rolleyes:

I always thought Kolic - Japanese mineral water was pretty funny

Having said that, "Real Hot Dog" should be plentiful in Korea.
He also sells cheese called "Careful may bite back" |
Nothing compares to that site, but. There is a restaurant in Chinatown that sells "Baked Bean Burd Bloated"
I think it was deep fried bean curd (tofu) baked in a pot with soup so it puffed up. But the imagery and alliteration were priceless. |
I bought some Drunken Goat cheese from Fresh Market last week - goat cheese cured in port wine. Yum!
I've always found Fugu a very funny name :P |

If we're going to include restaurant names, we gotta talk about "Squat and Gobble", just off I-95 in South Carolina! Just look for the billboard.
My favourite menu item was a dessert at a very swank CP hotel restaurant in the Rockies: "A Warm French-Canadian Tart" Needless to say it was a very popular dish. |
Not funny food names on menus, but funny restaurant names:
In Hayes, Bromley, Kent, UK: Sum Poo (chinese takeaway, sadly no longer there) In Peacehaven, East Sussex, UK: Wing Fat (chinese restaurant & takeaway) |
