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."

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!

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.

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)
