   For the June 1983 visit of Pope John Paul II, a hotel in Wroclaw, Poland,
   printed a special menu in three languages--Polish, German, and English.
   According to the English translation, restaurant guests were offered the
   following dishes: "salad, a firm's own make; limpid red beet soup with
   cheesy dumplings in the form of a finger; sirloin in clotted cream; a
   slice of bovine meat; beef rashers beaten up in the country people
   fashion; ham below the knee pickled and cooked; and roasted duck let
   loose."  Among dessert offerings, the menu suggested "clotted ice cream."
   -Los Angeles Times News Service.

10 points for each dish you can figure out, e.g.,

   "roasted duck let loose" == "roasted wild duck"  ???
