We have so far seen many examples of Chinglish but this one stands out:
After we spent the morning looking for a phantom tourist bus that should have taken us for a trip around the city, we arrived to Chenghuang Miao, another Chinatown for Chinese, where Brendan insisted in going for lunch to a place that according to the Book of Lies served authentic food. The girls and I, tired, cold, wet, and glancing longingly at a McDonalds, reluctantly followed him. When we finally arrived at our destination, we found this sign on a window of a canteen where people pushed their way through a crowd to get in:
"Dumplings stuffed with the ovary and digestive glands of a crad"
After a general mutiny we ended up in Kentucky Fried Chicken.
