a dish by any other name...

[miriam1978]

For the summer Olympics, Beijing hotels and restaurants are rewriting menus, giving dishes Western-friendly names. Personally, I think this sucks. And not just because "chicken with no sexual life" makes me very, very curious. Couldn't they just add brief descriptions below the names instead of replacing them?
