winner

I have seen SO MANY bad menu translations over the years, always a cause for amusement. But this one totally takes the cake. Thanks Victor for sending this to me. It’s fabulous.

For non-Spanish speakers the empadronamiento is the census.

lost in translation, sevilla

I was in one of my favourite tapas bars today and heard my waiter pal Jesús say to a couple of customers… “if you wait by the bar I will service you soon”. Oops. And yes, I set him straight, and boy was he embarrassed. Was going to send him a whatsapp with a written reminder but don’t know how to properly translate “to service” into Spanish.  🙂
