photo-floor 

Man-made flooring that simulates natural substances. Tile that appears to be stone, laminate that appears to be wood. Both of these are produced by photographing examples of natural substances, then reproducing that image on man-made sustrates. The level of realism is dependent on the quality of the process.

The idea behind the term was provided by my son who was quick to point out the visible pixilation in my new (budget) tile.
I just installed a new photo-floor....and yes, it's pretty as a picture!!!

city chicken 

A food native to Pittsburgh/Western Pennsylvania in which cubes of pork and/or veal are put on a short, wooden skewer, breaded, then baked and/or fried.

I've heard that city chicken originated during the Great Depression, when folks didn't have enough money to buy full cuts of meat, so they assembled meat scraps on a wooden skewer, creating a make-shift drumstick. Hence the name.
