World's 10 Weirdest Theme Restaurants

From world's first toilet-themed restaurant in Taipei, Mechai Viravaidya's condom-themed restaurant chain in Bangkok, traditional Japanese body sushi to the 'Let anger out by smashing plates' restaurant in China, a list of world's ten weirdest theme restaurants.


World's 10 Weirdest Theme Restaurants:


1.
Toilet-Themed Restaurant
Taipei

World's 10 Weirdest Theme Restaurants, Toilet Themed Restaurant

The restaurant might consider it a compliment to be called an outhouse as the Modern Toilet diner is one of chain of themed eateries appealing to largely young clientele with a toilet humor. All 100 seats in the crowded diner are made from toilet bowls, not chairs. Sink faucets and gender-coded "WC" signs appear throughout the three-storey facility, one of 12 in an island-wide chain of eateries with a toilet theme. Customers eat from mini plastic toilet bowls. They wipe their hands and mouths using toilet rolls hung above their tables, which may be glass-topped jumbo bathtubs.

Eating on Wheelchairs - Aurum
Singapore

World's 10 Weirdest Theme Restaurants, Aurum Restaurant

For most people, dining at death's door is not a palatable idea. But Clement Lee, executive director of nightspot operator LifeBrandz, hopes Aurum, which serving meals in macabre setting, will convince them otherwise. Lee said he wanted a controversial theme for the restaurant that features an avant-garde cooking style which uses scientific methods to create new flavors. Molecular gastronomy was made popular by world-renowned chefs such as Ferran Adria from Spain's El Bulli restaurant and Heston Blumenthal of Fat Duck in the English town of Bray. Adria's apprentice, Paco Roncero, is Aurum's technical consultant. And in case the unusual cuisine isn't enough to entice spoilt Singapore gourmands, Lee added a dash of the morbid -- gold wheelchairs, a morgue and surgical steel tables.


3.
Dining Dog Cafe
Edmonds

World's 10 Weirdest Theme Restaurants, Dining Dog Cafe

The Dining Dog Cafe and Bakery is not a place where one goes to eat (or bake) dogs, fortunately. It's a restaurant for dogs.
The waitress, who also happens to be the owner, will bring all the dogs at the table water and then start bringing out the appetizers. The food is dog-friendly.


4.
Condom-Themed Restaurant - Cabbages & Condoms
Bangkok

World's 10 Weirdest Theme Restaurants, Cabbage & Condom Restaurant

The restaurant is running by Mechai Viravaidya, condom king of Thailand. The name of his restaurant chain, “Cabbages and Condoms,” reflects his philosophy that contraception and condoms should be as accessible as produce in Thailand. To help break that taboo, condoms and sex toys are a major part of the decor, hanging from ceilings, embedded in tables, affixed to lamps and imitating table flowers. They were even featured in a salad. They are even on the menu: Yam Tung Yang or Yam Cabbages & Condoms.


5.
Dining in Bed - Duvet
New York

World's 10 Weirdest Theme Restaurants, Duvet Restaurant

Japan
