Here's something interesting ....... the top ten mispronounced words by foodies. ( I am posting the way they say they should be pronounced)
1. PHO (fuh)
2. Quesadilla (key-suh-dee-uh )
3. Gyro (yee-row OR zheer-oh
4. Quinoa (keen-wah)
5. Sriracha (sir-rotch-ah)
6. Beignet (ben-yay)
7. Chipoltle (chi-poht-ley)
8. Espresso ( e spres-oh)
9. Gnocchi (nyawk kee)
10. Bruschetta (broo-sket-tah)
I bet the servers and waiters crack up at the way peeps pronounce some of these.

That reminds me of the first time my mother in law ordered focaccia bread. She asked for some focker-ya bread!
Ever since, I always say it that way in my head
