    Phurst!

  2. cameo says:

    Second Winter Burning, hurts even more than the First winter burning =(

  3. JohnB says:

    It’s nice that the dish is raped finely and softly. You gotta love those considerate rapists!

  4. JohnB says:

    Boy, this could keep us going for weeks! I thought that speculation about the eggs was leeking out to the media…

  5. JohnB says:

    Apparently, the penalty for raping the mushroom is that you have to eat the dish.

  6. hoseja says:

    Oi, lawdy… HOW DOES THAT GET TO HAPPEN? ARE THERE NO BOUNDARIES TO ENGRISH? Cruise control off.

  7. Skyfire says:

    It’s The Holy Grail of Engrish!

    I’d love to know what got covered over in “Eat th________ dish”.

    • Much Glory Hopeful says:

      Just eat the dish and stop asking questions!

      • JohnB says:

        You can’t eat your dish and ray pit, too!

        • JohnB says:

          Funny, my more plainly stated (but otherwise identical) post was the first one the moderator refused entry to.

          • Droll not Troll says:

            Weird things are happening again! I had a post disappear, and I think Jennifer may have, too. One of my milder comments has the “being moderated” annotation. Anybody know what’s going on?

            • JohnB says:

              I don’t know, but several of my posts for this one got that message, although all but one showed up. I presume the word “r@pe” was setting off some bot that called for moderation, but there seems to be plenty of the use of that word I am now avoiding.

            • dr handle says:

              NFI – but I had posts disappear in this thread and another. I think my use of S.O.B. written out may have done it. The essence of Jeremy Bowdler must be laughing itself sick.

    • His_Steveness says:

      There are things Man was not meant to know.

  8. Gone_With_The_Wendell says:

    The tomato is fried
    The egg passed out in mid description

  9. wicked witch says:

    Is this a menu, or weird poetry from the seventies?

  10. JohnB says:

    I’m sure the oats aren’t Quaker Oats, or they wouldn’t be naked! Quakers are very modest.

  11. Nautique says:

    Oh, reading the word “smargosbord” always crack me up, since it’s obviously a direct translation of the swedish word “smörgåsbord”.

    The same thing with maelstroem, which is malström in swedish.

    Oh my.

  12. varuna says:

    that is so funny I can’t even laugh. hahaha XD

  13. smuffle says:

    They’re probably confusing their French with their English. In French, “rapé” means grated.

  14. dragonrady says:

    I hardly know where start. Bring everything!

  15. dr handle says:

    It fries the naked oats dish clearly – or it gets a second winter burning.

  16. shillaqueen says:

    You can even eat the dish for 6 yuan.

  17. tea says:

    Quit leeking speculation eggs and eat the #@&% dish.

  18. J.T.I says:

    It’s a treasure trove!

  19. Ringosan says:

    May be I’ll go for ‘2nd Winter Burning’ , missed the 1st one

  20. BAW says:

    Is there anyone who can read Chinese well enough to tell us what they are trying to say?

  21. Hein says:

    I’m sticking with the second item “Eat the Dish” … Seems reasonable to me. Don’t confuse me with the details of what the dish is made of, or how it is prepared, pray tell.

    • dr handle says:

      Cmon, baby, eat the dish,
      Bite down on the sonofabitch…

    • Mark. Gooley says:

      “…you can even eat the dishes!” Oh, heck, now I have Candy Man going through my head…

      • dr handle says:

        Not that Christina Wiggliera travesty, I hope – how the hell did she release that song without being dragged off to court by whoever owns the rights to Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy?

  22. Batman says:

    After 25 years, the mushrooms finally got revenge on Mario.

  23. Droll not Troll says:

    The mushroom was probably raped by a toad’s tool.

  24. Sinatra says:

    pedo-shroom?

  25. fyi says:

    Haven’t heard of any decent, laughable Enrish for a while. This is a REALLY good one.

  26. I'm the chief says:

    now there’s something different: porn dish!!

  27. I'm the chief says:

    what’s the censored word? “eat the f*cking dish”?

  28. Rani says:

    It puts the garlic on its belly, and it puts the mushrooms in the basket

  29. pamera says:

    I think they mean shrooms cooked in Rapeseed oil. It is also called canola oil. Rapeseed is of the mustard family. Blah blah blah blah.
    Your explanations are more fun though…

  30. Rivahcat says:

    “Leek speculation” sounds like a dish served at the congressional cafeteria….

    • Rani says:

      Assuming the speculation refers to the leek, but it may actually refer to the eggs. Perhaps those are eggs that are speculated to have a leak – no-one knows for sure, however, it’s only speculation… you have to order them to see for yourself.

      • JohnB says:

        It’s been my assumption that leeks do not lay eggs, but I will admit the sex life of leaks is not a subject I’m well versed on.

  31. L0st says:

    $6 for a dish of rape!!! IM SO DOWN!

    and ooo fry the naked oats dish clearly sounds so damn fresh!!! only $8

    goodness these bargains are unbeatable!!!

  32. Mark. Gooley says:

    I would like to know what some of the odder things are supposed to mean. What sense of the word “speculation,” for instance?

  33. Mervin says:

    Like someone else said, it’s spelled smörgåsbord.

    Oh, and stop pronouncing IKEA like ayke-a, OK?

  34. A Noun says:

    Ah yes, I remember when Joni Mitchell sang Fry the Naked Oats Dish Clearly…we all swayed and felt the love.

  35. Lubgub says:

    I’ll make sure that the Naked Oats Dish is very clearly fried.

  36. monikielinen says:

    Mushroom rape? Sounds painful… and a bit like a bad death metal band!

  37. Mackerel Chill says:

    It would be fun to order that…
    “Yeah, I’ll have the Mushroom Rape, please?”

  38. Torrizzle says:

    Is there really anything better than fine, soft rape?

  39. KevinL says:

    How bad is the one under the duct tape? It must have been really dirty.

  40. Borbe says:

    Mushroom rape sounds pretty scrumptious. *Eyebrow raise at next commenter*

  41. lolrat says:

    Now I get it: Eat the “covered” dish.

  42. Un Onymous says:

    Naked Lunch! O Burroughs!

  43. Yukionna says:

    I find it strange that no one has mentioned the fact that the oats are streaking up and down the restaurant.

  44. Mike says:

    Errrrr…..Who’s been raping the mushrooms then?

  45. Required says:

    The garlic burned its belly, raping the mushrooms. he tried to rape the oats too, but they ran away in time for the second Winter Burning.

    …..nope, that doesn’t make any more sense than the menu.

  46. lazuline says:

    but they’re so effing cheap, I’d be willing to try them all. God I miss china and its cheap street food.

  47. Alex says:

    That’s actually quite poetic there… well, it would be if it didn’t have the word “Rape” on it twice.

  48. nearingg says:

    Rape is a real food. Sorry, this is not engrish, just a kind of food we don’t eat a lot of in the US. Look it up on Wikipedia.

  49. Phil says:

    This is my picture! It was taken from a Beijing restaurant which I believe no longer exists. Poor marketing in my opinion…

  50. blaholtz says:

    smorgasbord sounds so stupid in english XD “smörgåsbord” is swedish and it loosely translates to sandwich-table…

  51. Simscreed says:

    Let’s hope the don’t pickthat mushroom. The only vegetable i loved has turned against me. :(
