Seeing as there are loads of Terry Pratchett and Discworld-based comments all the time around the Halfbakery, how about a restaurant based upon the novels. Rat would be served with ketchup, and the theme music would be the dwarves theme song 'Gold', which consists of the lyrics: 'Gold, gold, gold, gold,
gold', etc, to varying tunes, along with Rincewinds' potatoes (served by those beautiful women he meets somewhere along the line), along with the entire cast of take-outs that have featured in his books over the years.

Rat without ketchup is a lot cheaper. |
|
|
[+] And Luggage could be the hors d'oeuvres waiter. |
|
|
At some point during the evening, peoples' meals should
be interrupted by a watch chase. Or possibly an
inhumation. |

a model of Death of Rats in the corner. I'd visit but I wouldn't eat probably. |
|
|
I would cut me own throat just to dine at this restaurant + |
|
|
I wonder is ^ Susan's ^ grandfather would visit? Am I right, Miss Sto Helit? |
|
|
Incidentally, my HB nick is derived from a Discworld character. |
|
|
Candied sultanas? Onna stick? |
|
|
The Unseen University Wizards all-you-can-eat table. Rammer included. Wowee sauce extra. |

"Pork balls on a stick! Get'em while they're...um...err....Pork balls on a stick!"
- DMH Dibala
Incidently, I haven't noticed too many Discworld ref's on the 'bakery...must be looking in the wrong sections. |
|
|
The discworld series is my favorite. |
|
|
We could got Nobby to not do exotic dances. |
|
|
[DF] - I used to use 'detritus' for IRC. I shortened it to 'det,' but then most forums seemed to require a five letter minimum name. Hence, 'detly.' Even though the HB didn't require it, it sorta stuck. |
|
|
No, we're sayin' dat you're really fick.
Joking. |
|
|
orders come in one, two, many, and lots... |
|
|
Sausage inna bun? Ummmmm..... Dare we try them? |
|
|
We could use B.S. Johnson's manicuring device to peel the potatoes. |
|
|
Maybe if we made a few tweaks and fix the mail sorting machine, and it might make really good mixed salads... For those who like their mixed salads with the lettuce in one corner, the tomato in another, the avocado in another and same with the salad dressings... |
|
|
And when all is said and done, and eaten and drunk, Nanny Ogg's chocolate desert and a trip to the dark room in the back. |
|
|
Any slanting floors or narrowing hallways here? |
|
|
"Eat 'til it hurts at 'Harga's House of Ribs' " |
|
|
[zeno] - did you mean that double entendre? |
|
|
STAY AWAY FROM THE SORTING MACHINE!. |
|
|
*sigh* somepeople just never learn. |
|
|
<ANY CHANGE OF GETTING SOME KLATCHIAN CURRY?> |
|
|
Can we locate it on the site of an ancient temple and open on the night of a full moon? |
|
|
//Can we locate it on the site of an ancient temple and open on the night of a full moon?// Er, if you think that there's a market for it, yes..? |
|
|
It would be out of business pretty soon [froglet] (vast knowledge of discworld aquired for this <wink>). I think [baconbrain] might not like this idea |
|
|
What about Nanny Ogg's Bananana Surprise? |
|
|
And if you drink too much Winkle's Old Peculiar, there is always the Klatchian Coffee. |
|
|
Yeah, I know what you mean. It was only after I posted that that I thought... Doh! |
|
|
//And if you drink too much Winkle's Old Peculiar// I prefer 'Turbot's Really Odd'. |
|
|
// I prefer 'Turbot's Really Odd'.//
You sure you wouldn't rather have some of this scumble? It's made from mostly apples. |
|
|
From experience the dwarf cake, the rat pizza* and Englebert's enhancer are all good. (From nanny Og's cook-book.) |
|
|
*Doesn't actually contain rat. |
|
|
Oh dear oh dear oh dear oh dear. |
|
|
We could have Rincewind do a non-magic show. |
|
|
Having a Discworld Restaurant would be almost as good as
not having a Discworld Restaurant, so [+] |
|
|
[+]... could make something almost completely unlike Disney World: huge theme park/area |
|
|
Just don't mention garlic |
