Restaurant offers cancer - with chips

POZNAN: A British tourist has complained after finding ‘cervical cancer with chips’ on the menu at a restaurant in Poland. Owen Durray, 32, from Kent, found ‘Cervical cancer served on beetroot carpaccio’ being offered at the Bee Jays restaurant in Poznan. Mr Durray said: “I wanted something fishy but I didn’t expect this. No one I know has had cervical cancer but I can imagine that if it had been seen by somebody else they might have been well upset. As it was I quickly lost my appetite, the meaning doesn’t exactly encourage you to order anything does it?” A spokesman for the restaurant said: “This was a mistake in translation. The food item was for crayfish and somehow that got turned into Cervical Cancer. We will be having a word with our translator. We apologise if we have offended anyone.”–WO
