Common sense tells us that
there are few things less
appetizing than a pile of feces.
So why in the world is a toilet-
themed restaurant that serves
dishes with names such as "green dysentery" and
"diarrhea with dried droppings"
so popular that it has expanded
to 12 different locations?
That's right, bathroom-themed
restaurant chain Modern Toilet first opened in Taiwan in 2004
and has since expanded to
include 12 locations in Hong
Kong, China and Japan with
plans to open in Malaysia, reports BuzzFeed. But don't get grossed out just
yet — there is no actual feces on
the menus, just a lot of items
that sound like something that
belongs in a toilet. At Modern Toilet, the emphasis
is really on the décor. Diners sit
on toilet shaped-seats (with the
lids raised) and are served meals
like hot pots and curries in
smaller toilet bowl-shaped dishes.
The tables are made of bathtubs
with glass tops, and drinks
come in urinal-shaped
receptacles. Even dessert comes
in a little toilet, and the
chocolate ice cream is appropriately swirled to look
like — you guessed it — poo. Would you eat at Modern
Toilet? If the answer is no,
there are still heaps of other
extreme themed restaurants to
jazz up the eating experience. At Hajime Restaurant in Thailand, googly-eyed robots
deliver items and dance, while
at Hospitalis restaurant in Latvia, the restaurant serves
drinks in test tubes and feeds
diners with surgical tools.
