Amusing Menus: Food Exploration Turned Out to Be Funny

If you are a food enthusiast who loves to explore random restaurants for the love of good food, you must have come across interesting menus that steal the show. The first thing that has our attention while visiting a food stop is the menu.

A menu is probably the most important document when in a food exploration. Whether you love enjoying food with the ambience of a restaurant or love ordering food at home, you dive into the menu to look out for the best dishes served or cooked there. All this undoubtedly hints at the essentiality of a menu.

Most posh and Michelin-star restaurants work towards creating an impressive and attractive menu that keeps their guests hooked to them. The menu is the peek-a-boo of what you can expect from the restaurant. As much as a well-prepared and presented menu impresses us. Similarly, a dull menu has us disappointed.

Almost everyone will accept the importance of a menu and how they look up to it and judge a restaurant even before trying the food. A well-crafted menu will set the first impression and will motivate the guests to try various items from it. So, restaurant owners, make sure you have the most interesting and customer-friendly menu.

Well, coming back to what we started off with. This post is definitely not a handbook for menus, rather it is about all those amusing menus that we must have come across. To be more precise, we are here to share those menus that have brought some really funny menu ideas that got us thinking.

Some non-traditional funny menus from across the world:

Pulled Porked and Smashed Potato Parfait: Well, this item in the menu can really get you confused as it sounds similar to a caramel and vanilla ice cream sundae. If you have a sweet tooth and craving for something sweet, this may disappoint you as this dish is a savoury goodness when served with the sweet and sour bbq sauce. With pork and potato being the main ingredients, the dish is layered deliciously to give your taste buds a burst. And you get to know that this sweet-sounding combination is actually something very different.

Deep-fried Oreos: Yes, you heard it right. As if Oreo was any less delicious that they had to try it some other way. This dish has the Oreos dipped into batter and then deep fried to give a crispy outer layer and a chewy, creamy and chocolatey from the inside. Pretty high in calories and funny in its idea, this dish is a delight for oreo lovers.

The Avocado Milkshake: So, here we got hold of something healthy. Milk and Avocado are highly nutritious and are considered healthy food options. But wait, they are coming together? And that too in a milkshake? This is now hard to believe, but this is what it is. Someone actually took the initiative to brew a milkshake with avocado. So, we will leave the imagination of what it will taste like to you and move on to the next funny dish.

Cereal Milk: As children, all of us took much interest and pleasure in slurping away the last drop of milk from our cereal bowl. But someone actually thought of making it a dish and serving it to customers. A restaurant named Momufoku in NYC is selling cereal milk and charging a good amount for it. What they actually did is toasted some cornflakes and added them to milk and then strain the milk and add a bit of sugar and salt to balance the taste and serve. This would most probably taste delicious but the idea that someone actually thought of making a dish out of it and selling it is hilarious in itself.

Lobster Ice Cream: This dish has been around for a decade and more now. This dish was served in a food destination name Ben and Bill’s Chocolate Emporium in Maine in the early 90s and it has been still around. Most probably Mainians love this dish and that is proved by the significant time period that this dish has survived. The dish is prepared by mixing excellent quality butter ice cream with cooked lobster meat and is left in the freezer to set. Ice cream has been quite popular among people and loved across ages.
