Fried Rice
Surprise... Surprise... The waiter at the Korean restaurant did not understand what ‘Fried rice’ is. Was it the accent that he did not understand or was it ‘Fried rice’?
S got this ingenious idea. He searched through the menu. Found ’Fried Salmon with rice’. Pointed at the first and last words and said - This 'fried' and this 'rice'. The waiter nodded and left. He came back with Salmon.
Our guys were glad that S pointed at $12 ‘Fried Salmon with rice’ than any of the other more expensive dishes with ‘fried’ and ‘rice’ in their names. Guys had great fun at S's expense. Though S would desperately want to forget this 'Fried Rice' episode, I am sure our guys would never give him that option :P

awesome blog...and yours is funny too!
solo,
yeah... that will be good. then we can point to the menu and order like - "this, this, this and this" :)
actually, a lot of restaurants have menus with name of the dish, list of ingredients, short description about it and picture.
i saw this in a menu:
sambar - indian spicy soup.
vidya,
