God yes, Chinese menus. Oodles of fun. I think I had my biggest menu-related laugh in India, though, where one particular restaurant had "fried children" on the menu.

As for the "restemdessert", that's really not too complicated. Dianxin doesn't just mean "dim sum"; it also means "dessert". The slip from "Western dessert" to "restemdessert" can probably be explained by bad handwriting and a printer who wasn't too familiar with the English language or its alphabet.
