We don't have a lot of time to spend in restaurants, but when we do, a great source of fun can almost always be found in the menu. There's a local place in Efrat that used to make us laugh out loud - every time we went we would point out a few more corrections to be made, and now it's just a menu. But that's a small-town joint - you can't really walk into a normal sit-down place and start editing to the waiter. So we generally just chuckle to ourselves, and leave it at that.
Here, I managed to surreptitiously sneak a photo. Truthfully, this isn't the funniest menu I've seen by any means. But they did manage to spell "wine" three different ways on the page, plus get in all sorts of funky capitalization variations.
My favorite is the bottom line - I can't exactly explain why, but the rolling "rr" makes me giggle. My apologies if the photo quality isn't as clear as it should be - you can click on it to enlarge, and that should help.

I'll never forget the "snake bar" they once had near the central bus station.
i don't care how they spell in english as long as the prices are the same as in the hebrew menu. there used to be a restaurant under the movie theater in kiryat malachi (both long since closed) that had different prices in the two menus.
batya - Wow, I wish I had seen that one...
lion - That's really shocking! There's a big difference between a goofy mistake and an intentional, malicious misprint. That one I think I would have complained about to the owner.
