Lets go to The Toilet!

Salam SEM06 and SEM05,

Would you go eat in a restaurant that looks like a toilet? Well it seems that there is a fair amount of people that do. This post invites you to think about the concept of a Theme Restaurant(TR). Excerpt below is from Wiki:


"Theme restaurants are restaurants in which the concept of the restaurant takes priority over everything else, influencing the architecture, food, music, and overall 'feel' of the restaurant. The food usually takes a backseat to the presentation of the theme, and these restaurants attract customers solely on the premise of the theme itself...

...The popular Rainforest Cafe restaurants have the obvious theme of a "Tropical Rainforest". Medieval Times has its theme of "Medieval Europe". The Jekyll & Hyde Club evokes an atmosphere of Jack the Ripper and Victorian horror novels. Some theme restaurants use controversial images, contexts, or ideas. The most notorious of them is Hitler's Cross, in Mumbai India.

One strange but famous theme restaurant in Berlin, Germany is called "das Klo" (German for "The toilet") it depicts the insides of a toilet. Many people consider the Rainforest Cafe to be the prototypical theme restaurant, and the restaurant which kicked off the theme restaurant fad. Theme restaurants often depend on tourist business, since the theme soon becomes stale to locals, and the focus is not necessarily placed on good food and service."

What do you think? Are they interesting, Why?/Why Not? Any type of TR that you are familiar with?

Have a break, Have a KitKat (in the Toilet) :)!
