Japan has its share of awful translations and, while there are already two sites dedicated to documenting them (Engrish and Engrish Funny), I really need to get a few of my better Engrish pictures online.
Still, China does have Japan beat in one area:
Fake brand-named stores.


(images via Boing Boing, text via mirror.co.uk):
"China has confirmed itself as the 'king of counterfeiters' with the building of a new shopping centre dedicated to fake brands.The big question is, does "Pizza Huh" serve the ultimate "huh?" pizza: The Double Roll?
Some of the brand impostors at the mall in Nanjing, east of Shanghai, include a McDonalds look-a-like burger bar called McDnoald’s, a Starbucks-style coffee shop called Bucksstar Coffee, and a wannabe Pizza Hut called Pizza Huh."

Mmm... cheesy, honey maple syrup crust...
