Where diners enjoy their courses in total darkness. Foodies would flock to make reservations because as we all know, eating with one's eyes closed heightens the taste buds and the sense of smell.
I knew I'd seen this before

ebrands - can you think of any non-visual cues to allow diners and staff to perform their respective functions with out danger / undue mess? That would make this better. |

My Dad used to tell me about a college friend of his who loved oysters so much that he would eat them while wearing a paper bag over his head so he wouldn't be distracted from the oyster eating experience. |

What a totally excellent link, [Worldgineer]! I so want to go to that restaurant! |
|
| |
I know - I read about it a while ago and it's on my must-do list if ever in germany. |
|
| |
I think probably fondue would not be served. |

Sort of takes the fun out of embarrassing friends when you
tell the waiter/waitress that it's someones birthday. Just
a bunch of people singing "happy happy birthday" in the
dark.. |
|
| |
I hope it's not Japanese Hibachi (flipping shrimp into the
hat and flaming onion volcano won't be fun) or Chinese (I
have enough trouble with Chopsticks)... |
|

Great way to fake-out vegetarians also ! |
|
| |
Um... as a vegetarian let me say it would take a lot more than blindness to fool us. I can usually tell by the scent of food rather than the look of it whether it contains dead animal. |

Don't like this idea, I am a VERY good looking person, and have no personality to speak of. What would there be to distract from my boring conversation and uncomfortable silences? |
|
| |
who said that? was it you [world]? |
|
| |
No, I'm over here feeling aroung for my contact lens. Watch out for something crunchy in your soup. |
|
| |
dammit, another filling gone. |
|
| |
>CRASH< Ow! Crap. Are you okay? Sorry everyone. |
|
| |
no cheating, dag. Is that you that keeps tapping me on the sholder? |
|
| |
Hey! Who brought in the laser pointer? I knew this was a bad choice for a halfbakery lunch meeting... |
