How did this one make the list? "Restaurant Überfahrt".

Also...

 List of female chefs with Michelin stars

Why shouldn't it? I forget what country but it translates as "speed."

It's German, and means "an overseas journey", or "a trip over the water".

I suspect you're thinking of the similar Danish word Fahrtkontrol, which is a police speed trap.

Fahrt, in both languages, means journey, drive, speed, trip, travel, progress, etc., with the precise translation dependent (as so often) on context.

Ok, the translation I saw didn't cover all the meanings.

However, what you're thinking of is wrong. "Fahrtkontrol" would be speed control, making "fahrt" = speed.

I do see the wider meaning making more sense for the restaurant. "Super trip" would make much more sense for a Michelin starred restaurant, I would think "super speed" would be a fast food joint.

You're still working outside the wider context.

The Restaurant Überfahrt is located in the Seehotel Überfahrt, on the shore of the Tegernsee, south of Munich.

It's a trip over the water for the Münchener who is looking for a nice hotel with a top quality restaurant.

Languages are contextual. They're not codes that can be directly translated from one to another by a simple comparison or equivalence table.

When was that photo taken?
I’d have thought some recent events might have cheered him up.

Shouldn't that be "Latus nigrum lunae"?
