Once Upon A TYPE…

specials:

> drilled crap

> noodles with singapore smell

> rage beef with emon

these are just some of the foods that the resto i went to last time offers…when i first saw the menu, i couldn’t help myself but laugh! my friend mike who is a restaurant manager and fluent in vietnamese also did the same, we don’t need to say anything more, obviously there’s a lot of mistakes here. who among u wants to eat drilled crap??? baby, they mean grilled crab! not drilled…i imagined how they prepare the food, maybe an electric drill on one hand and the crab on the other, hehe. noodle is one of fave food here in vietnam, they’ve got lots of varieties and i don’t mind trying new ones. based on the name, it’s noodles but it’s suppose to mean Singapore noodles not with singapore smell, haha! last, rage beef with emon, sounds like mad cow to me! let me correct it - braised beef with lemon! truly Vietnamese are very innovative, they try to impress most of their customers all the time but these kind of menu is not pleasing at all, how about the new pizza at Pepperoni’s - Sweet pickle pizza! i guess i will not be able to dine there as often as i do now that mike’s heading to hanoi soon…sometimes, nakakapraning yun mga nakasulat in vietnamese then ita-translate nila sa english, kasi ang layo ng ibig sabihin! kaya kung medyo sanay ka na, ikaw na lang ang mag-aadjust sa mga pagkukulang nila, hahaha!
