sleepy gary posted:I was guiding some family around in a popular European tourist city. To this day they think I'm some kind of a genius because I told them to skip the restaurant right across from a popular attraction and go in a few blocks where we found a really fantastic place. I tend to favour the "if they don't have a menu in English, it's probably at least OK". e: OK not all restaurants around the world have a menu outside, but many do.

Theophany posted:Additional points if they have pictures of each menu item so sunburned tourists can point at a picture of a fried egg, like a trained monkey in a zoo rather than suffer the indignity of attempting to learn a single loving word of the country they have inflicted themselves upon. I went to a KFC in Guangzhou and tried to order by pointing at things on the menu but they kept saying something to me and to each other (I speak no Chinese language) and then finally a guy in a suit brought me a dusty laminated English-language menu. Like... I still had no idea what a god drat "Zinger" was so I had to go by the pictures anyway.

Captain Hygiene posted:I know what that means, but it's one of those pieces of terminology that's so deeply ingrained that it just sounds so wrong to me. Like c'mon, a burger's something with ground meat, not a meat sandwich in general! Get it together, other parts of the world! You've only ever eaten sparkling meat sandwiches. e: Because the Finnish word for hamburger is literally the translation of Hamburger, i.e. hampurilainen, meaning someone or something from or pertaining to the town of Hampuri (Hamburg), you also get things like porilainen (from or pertaining to Pori), a thick slice of onion sausage between two pieces of toast, and the fondly-remembered munaturkulainen which is funny because muna means both "egg" and "penis" 3D Megadoodoo has a new favorite as of 09:29 on Dec 5, 2023 |

Did you know that it's impossible to find anything about printing artefacts via a Google search? Because Google is bad now, all you get is stuff about archaeological poo poo (because no it simply will not accept that someone searching for "printing artefacts" wants to find stuff about printing artefacts, not printing and/or artefacts. And no I won't put it in quotes gently caress you Google) or loving 3D-printing poo poo (because the world is poo poo).

Grand Fromage posted:This is still how a decent portion of the meat supply chain works in China. Pigs are slaughtered in the outskirts of the city in the morning, brought to the markets, butchered, sold, you cook it that day. It's never refrigerated anywhere in the process. Works fine as long as it was actually done that day and not last week. When I visited, in more than one restaurant you got to choose what you were going to eat while it was still alive. Like they'd have ducks walking around the garden and you went "yeah I'm gonna eat that one". Didn't see any pigs tho but I swear I heard some. Huge-rear end fish in too-small tanks was p common.
