Okay, it's my fault. I look at this food blog and it is out of France. BUT, it is written in English. On a recent menu, one of the offerings was "Cardoon Agnolotti." Sounded interesting enough that I felt compelled to look it up. Why can't they just write Artichoke Ravioli? Can you charge more for CA than for AR? Probably. Everything else seems to be listed in Americanese.
Surely if ever I see a menu with that listed, I won't remember. I'll think it sounds exotic and delightful. It will be delightful, but then I like artichokes and ravioli. Then we'll get the bill and be horrified...even though I should have read the price on the menu...even though I should have remembered looking it up once upon a time...even though I subscribe to a hoity-toity foreign blog about food and still get annoyed.
