It is really funny :) I saw an interesting side dish in a Hungarian restaurant a few years ago. Customers could order Smashed potato instead of Mashed potato. But it is sad when a professional translation office translates a certificate and the profession becomes Optician instead of Optometrist. For a fairly large amount of money of course
