I spotted this sign in Myeong-dong while waiting in line for some delicious soft serve ice cream. I ordered the chocolate and strawberry and it was served in a perfect spiral that was taller than my head. After having spent several hours walking around Seoul, it tasted heavenly! Now the only question that remains – what is a ‘con cup’? 😉
Do you have a funny ‘engrish’ photo you’d like to share? If so, you can drop me a line here.
Want more EngRish?
I keep on thinking it’s Spanish… like one serving with a cup and the other one without…? But it really doesn’t make any sense whatsoever! 😆
Now you made me curious. Do you know the answer? Did you find out?
Haha, I think ‘con cup’ is really meant to be cone. They didn’t even have cups to begin with, haha, just cones! 😀
I’m guessing it was meant to be cup or cone, maybe. More importantly, where’s the ice cream pic? 😉
It probably was meant to be cone. 😉 Oh, and I devoured that ice cream!
i think they mean you either get it in a cup or you get it in a cone (which is the cup since it holds the ice cream).
I don’t think it was meant to be creative, think simple.
Thanks sistah, where would I be without your genius?! 😉
LOL! You are totally bringing me back to my days in Hong Kong… Oh, Engrish…
I thought it was probably Spanish, too, though that wouldn’t make much sense either … I think you’re right, it should be “cone.” I love finding signs like this — I was just reviewing some photos tonight from my time in Uganda a few years ago and came across a photo of a shop called “Holy Jesus Perfect Snack.” Just a little snack stand on the side of the road 🙂
Haha, that’s a great name for a snack stand. I would sure eat there! EngRish signs brighten up my day! 😀
