Pool: How may of us would actualy eat at this place?
 
Hello All,

Here is a bizzare place to eat:

http://www.igman.com/misc/japanese-restaurant/


a Taipei restaurant (this link wrongly states that it's in Japan) where
cups look like urinals and bowls like toilet bowls.

How many of you would eat at this place?



Best,

Vasko

Looking at the site's pictures caused a wave of revulsion which simply
reading the words of the original post didn't. The question is, as far as
I'm concerned, would anyone? (Obviously yes, if the whole thing isn't
just a hoax.)

Leaving to one side the hypothetical members of non-mainstream cultures
who haven't necessarily evacuated into some sort of similar WC habitually
since being housebroken, I suppose you could get used to anything.
However, this is something that I feel not a shred of desire to attempt,
no matter how ambrosia-like the food & drink.

In fact, if it's real in the first place, maybe they can make a little
more money selling any sort of a regular customer list they keep to
conmen... :-)

Unlike Ozzy, I feel no revulsion to the place.

I also feel no attraction and would probably eat there only in a
desperate attempt to stave off starvation.

Granted, to fly from the USA to Taiwan to eat would be pretty
desperate....

I saw this once on the tail end of a national news broadcast. The
anchor was chuckling it up because we Americans are anal retentive. I
recyle my urinals and basins as outdoor planters for my wife. I can
buy a high tech toilet with no flush handle at the local asian store.
I can't remember the price but over a grand. In the end if the food
was good it wouldn't bother me.

I would indeed go there. Of course I wouldn't sit down and drink tea or eat;
I would instead take a lot of pictures, and use them to illustrate some of
the high points of Japanese youth culture. Scatology -- not to be confused
with eschatology, though I can definitely see how it might fit in -- at its
finest. We've discussed the perfect teas here for this environment.

It would depend entirely on the quality of the food. Which, likely, is
nigh onto shit.
