The Eater's Guide to Chinese Characters
An amazing piece of work but I can't see it being of any practical use.
You can't possibly sit down in a restaurant and plough through this in order to see what the Chinese characters mean in English.
It's interesting to a Foodie perhaps for the example of genuine Chinese menus, but its revealed that many are in both Chinese and English.
