Bon Appetit: 10 Fun Restaurants for a Special Dining Experience Released

Here is a list of some themed restaurants that I found to be pretty out of ordinary.

If you thought restaurants are just for eating, think again. People say they go to restaurants for something more than just food: fun. This is the reason so many "themed restaurants" came up, and most of them are a hit. But how different can themes be? Here is a list of some themed restaurants that I found to be pretty out of ordinary.

The Clinic

Location: Aurum, Singapore

The clinic is a hospital-themed restaurant in Singapore. Here the waiters are dressed in white coats like nurses and can be seen serving colourful pills and syringes of cocktails with names like "Nitro-Sangria" and "Sex on a Drip" to wheel chair-ridden customers. Here the plates are surgical pans designed in the shape of kidneys and rooms are in the shape of wards. For dessert you can ask them to put you on an IV.

Dinner in the Sky

Location: Brussels, Belgium

Dinner in the sky is hosted at a table suspended in air at a height of 50 metres above ground by a team of professionals. It gives you a thrilling experience as you can have your breakfast, lunch, dinner, cocktails etc in the sky. Although it is presently located in Belgium it can be driven to any destination in the world.

Bytes

Location: Canterbury, UK

Here 15-inch touch screens are mounted beside the tables for placing orders. The software enables the drink orders to go to the bar and the food orders to the kitchen. After placing the order the screen offers free games like trivia, solitaire etc.

Toilet Restaurant

Location: Shenzhen, China

The hotel resembles a bathroom. Dining seats are replaced by toilet seats, and the food is served in toilet bowls and miniature bathtubs.

Le Spirite Lounge

Location: Montreal, Canada

Le Spirite Lounge is a vegan restaurant. This is special for its weird rules like you get your dessert only if you finish your meal. If you do not finish the dessert you can never go back there.

The Jail

Location: Taipei, Taiwan

The jail exactly looks like a jail with rusty iron and wooden bars and sliding prison bars. The waiters/ waitresses are dressed like cops. They hand cuff the customers and lead them to their cells where they can be seated in normal dining tables.

Snow Castle

Snow castle is open from 10 am to 7 pm. You can enjoy delicious meals, sip your drinks and eat desserts, all at -5°C. But you must make advanced reservation for this restaurant.

Observatory Restaurant

The observatory restaurant has two telescopes, a 25" (62cm) and a 16" (40 cm). Visitors are allowed to look through these telescopes. The first 25" telescope can be used before and during the various courses of food ordered and the second one can be used during and after the desserts.

Robot Kitchen

Fascinating. I'm not sure I could eat that high off the ground, or care to eat in a bathroom atmosphere but some of the others actually seem intriguing.

Thanks for sharing.
