I remember going to Windsor for dim sum for the first time and having the hostess offer me "chickafee" and wondering "hm, that chickafee looks pretty good". It was chicken feet.

That's hilarious. When I was a kid my parents took us to a Japanese steak house. At the end of the meal the waitress offered us desert. My dad asked the waitress what flavors of ice cream they had:
Waitress: We have chocolate, green tea and bunny-rah Dad: Can you tell me about this bunny-rah? Waitress (more emphatically) No, it's BUNNY-RAH Dad I know, i've just never had bunny-rah before, what's it like? (he's serious) Mom Tim, she's saying "vanilla". He was pretty embarrassed. My brother and I still think it's hilarious.
