   Heh, their English is still way better than my Balinese.

   Oh, how I would love to know what that really means.

   Maybe it's one of those squids (Bloopers?) that ate Mario?

   So if I order the item on the top right, do I get to choose between scalding and burning, or is the choice already made for me arbitrarily?

   Skipweasel, even though it's Thai

   The "moustache" here refers to the squid's tentacles as opposed to the squid's body. A better translation for the first dish would be "Roasted squid tentacles" (tiny or otherwise).

   I would translate the word they translated to "Demon" as "monster." "Roasted Monster Squid Tentacles."

   And yes - Jayne is right - this is Thai.

   The word translated to "demon" would better be translated to "giant" - as that is what it means in Thai. This is truly some abysmal English! Hence, the reason why I still have a job in this country!
