Tywais Posted August 10, 2014 Share Posted August 10, 2014 Left menu - Chinese (simplified) on the left, Thai on the right. Not sure where you are getting Malaysian (Bahasa Malay) from. Just type Fried Chicken in this converter, which is the 2nd line in the menu - http://www.mdbg.net/chindict/chindict.php 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neeranam Posted August 10, 2014 Share Posted August 10, 2014 Strangely the Thai is a totally different menu to the one in English. The Chinese looks like double Dutch to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

simon43 Posted August 10, 2014 Share Posted August 10, 2014 (edited) The black Thai letters on the right are using a rather simple/stylish font which can be difficult for a novice reader of Thai to comprehend. Update: Having said that, and looking at the last line of the menu, I'm not sure in which country they speak Wingding.

NancyL Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 I see this quite frequently where a restaurant's English language menu lists different items than it's Thai language menu. Of course, often the prices are different too (guess which way?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATF Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 Well I'm surprised you couldn't spot the English menu but I think the reason you posted this is because the Chinese and Thai menu doesn't match the English. At the top on the Thai, Chinese side it says pineapple fried rice but on the English side spring rolls. Nothing matches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
