New toilet themed cafe opens in Moscow

There are some weirdly themed restaurants out there, but a new eatery in Moscow might take the cake.

Complete with toilets for chairs, urinal shaped bowls and a ‘poop-art’ décor, Crazy Toilet Café in Russia’s capital says it will likely cater more towards one-off diners looking for a novelty meal rather than repeat clientele, according to the Guardian.

“We think people will walk past, think ‘what on Earth is that?’ and then come in to check it out,” general manager Inga Yaroslavskaya told the paper. “It’s not everywhere you can eat good food from a toilet bowl and drink from a urinal at very reasonable prices.”

If you’re thinking the lavatory theme must end with the decorations, think again.

There’s reportedly a three course lunch meal consisting of a ‘brown and creamy’ mushroom soup served in a toilet bowl, ‘swirled sausage and three piles of steaming mashed potatoes’, and, of course, chocolate pudding for desert.

All for just $30CAD.

The idea isn’t actually as unique as you might think.

There is an entire chain of similarly themed cafes in Taiwan called Modern Toilet, and Las Angeles even had its own version called the Magic Restroom Cafe but it has since closed up shop.
