[Engrish] Mistranslation!

May be the translation software just output "translate server error" because it encountered an error, and they just printed it?

You know, I think there's more going on here than meets the eye - in fact, I do believe this is an attempt at a pun, based on the fact that "server" denotes both a powerful computer and a waiter.

Translate: to turn one thing into another, be it a piece of written or spoken text, or the more loosely-defined usage in which it is a synonym for transmogrify, or transcend, or... something like "his lame attempts at cutting wit translate into much laughter for his opponents."

Error is clear enough.

I think the restaurant's owner was trying to say, "Don't go to the competition, whose waiters are terrible - turn all that frustration at their incompetence into a wonderful dining experience here!"

That's my story, and I'm sticking to it.
