I am watching the Travel Channel and they have this show on called Extreme Resturants and they just showed this resturant in Taipei and it is called Modern Toilet.
It is toilet themed and your food comes to you in a toilet. Your drinks are in urinals and your ice cream looks like a little pile of poo. Here is an article from Time magazine about it... http://www.time.com/time/arts/articl...882569,00.html Would you go to a resturant like this if it came to America? Jan

Id go cuz it'd make me laugh. I wouldn't order anything. I'd just stare at people and laugh.. alot.
Definitely not a place you'd wanna piss your server off lest your next course not be so "simulated". LMFAO! |

Maybe their food sends you to the toilet, so they're cutting out the middle man?
How do you know if you're in the bathroom or in the restaurant?

Actually, I have. No, not a "restaurant" per se...
but in the military they have a special dinner... dress uniforms...and there they have a "grog." It's the most disgusting looking drink that is held in a toilet on top of the table (or might be on the floor.) The toilet usually has been "dressed" for the night also, with chocolate smeared all over it etc. (Yes, it's a toilet sealed up and sanitized and used just for this purpose.) You don't have to drink from the grog unless you are witnessed breaking proper protocol during the dinner. At that point, whomever officer witnessed the infraction, stands and addresses the Officer in Charge at the head table, who calls the mess to order, and the witness majestically and professionally proclaims the infraction they witnessed. At that point, the officer who has broken protocol is sent to the grog by the Colonel or whomever is head at that dinner. It's a ceremonial drinking, approaching with corners, salute, addressing it, the mess, the head table.. etc. Really quite fun for all... unless you are caught... and sometimes those who stand to proclaim don't do so properly and are sent to the grog along with the other. ROFL I have to admit it was quite a shock for me the first time I saw it...but that wore off. Just thought you'd like to hear all this.  And while I did pay for these dinners, I would NOT do so IRL.

I used to work for a group of doctors, and once a month we would celebrate all the birthdays for that month.
One of the Docs that was known to be sort of "disgusting" and hard to get along with, had a birthday. Person incharge of ordering cakes had a joke cake made, a pile of brown colored buttercream fronsting poo, style. It even had a buttercream iced fly or two on it. No one cut a piece, and the doc didn't even take it home. (Not that I blame him, I wouldn't have either) No, I don't think I'd enjoy the toilet restaurant. "I'll pass" Yuck. Although, once the office ran out of paper cups/glasses. We used the large urine specimen cups for the apple cider and donuts for the halloween party!

The shape of the food probably wouldn't bother me. I'd rather go to a horror-themed restaurant, or something like that, though.

I'd like to start a place next door called 'Ancient Toilet', where you can go after you've been to the 'Modern Toilet'. You'd have to pay for each deposit.......much more profitable..........

Some Asian cultures go for this. I understand that in Japan many wealthy people have diamond-studded gold toilets. White porcelain works for me.
