Is it acceptable to put phrases in href title atrib.?
What about the ñ character... should I put ntilde; or just ñ... or just avoid any special character?

Use the HTML number codes for the special chars:

title="fresh ñandú meat"

I searched web monkey and "ñ" appears like: ñ
...

pasted that code and appears in browser: ñ not like ñ ....

Am I doing something wrong or what?

If you set your character set in the headers or/and in the meta content-type tag and you should be able to just use the normal characters instead of entity codes.
