It's English, actually. Just really rare. It is late-middle English and a word not used here but must have been retained there: late Middle English: from Old French viande ‘food,’ from an alteration of Latin vivenda, neuter plural gerundive of vivere ‘to live.’

Not a show, although good guess (Rochestarians unite!!) This is actually a public service announcement.

@scottalanmiller The image happened to be larger than anticipated. I need to start re-sizing.

@joyfano - in the UK and most of Europe, when you ask for the "comfort room", you say "Toilet / toiletta?" Which Americans actually find sort of crude, but there you go.
