Funniest Menu Mistakes

Part of the fun when you travel is tasting the local flavors. It's always fun trying new dishes at restaurants; it's all part of the adventure, right? Stepping outside your comfort zone and trying foods you may not have normally considered trying can be a great opportunity for personal growth. Some dishes, though, may be a bit more adventurous than others. We're not talking about trying guinea pig while traveling through Peru; instead, we are talking about dishes that are probably completely harmless, but whose names have been completely lost in translation.
