Modern Toilet

First of all, a great friend of mine from college, Katie, is here visiting me in Taiwan.

And the fact that she has a sister here too is just an added bonus!

Ok, I kid, I kid. Fine!

It's the other way around.

We're all going on a tour of Taiwan starting Monday but until then we're touring Taipei.

Kristi had heard of this certain restaurant, so we started off today with a smelly-good lunch at a place called...

The name cracks me up!

It's a 4-story bathroom themed restaurant that is in the middle of the city on a very busy street in a very busy part of town.

The outdoor decor was actually pretty cool...

and so was the inside.

It's a popular restaurant where you literally sit on toilets and eat on glass over a sink (or bathtub).

All the toilets had fun designs and the whole place was actually decorated really creatively and everything was very bright and surprisingly tidy and clean looking.

I was actually really impressed. 

The food was hilarious.  I can't stop laughing about it.

The drinks come in the above container which they called "urinal containers" which you could keep for an extra dollar!

Cheers!

A bathtub table!  And you can see a fake shower hanging on the tile wall.

Dessert was served as above.

The food wasn't that great so I now understand that you don't go there for the food, you go for the laugh.  And there's plenty of them as you see people all around you taking funny pictures and having the "IS THIS REAL LIFE!??" look on their faces.

Overall it was an interesting and fun experience and I think something unique that Taiwan has to offer because...

I'm not so sure this idea would "fly" in America.
