Wikipedia served in Beijing


Completely lost in translation. But what translation?


Wikipedia served in Beijing. Completely lost in translation. But what translation?

At a Beijing restaurant you can order Stir-fried wikipedia, Stir-fried wikipedia with pimientos or Steam eggs with wikipedia.

So, after much discussion, here is what we think happened.

"Hey I'm making the new menu, what's the english name for those flat crispy mushrooms?"

"Um, there isn't one."

"Well what should I put down here?"

"I don't know, look it up in wikipedia."

"What?"

"Wikipedia!"

By the way, wikipedia with pimientos (in the picture) is delicious!
