Buñuellian!
P de K alerted me to the existence of Modern Toilet in Taipei.
“Modern Toilet is a Taipei restaurant. It accommodates 100 seats each made from toilet bowls. The specialties at the restaurant accompany sink faucets and gender-coded ‘WC’ signs that appear on the three-story structure.
“The food is served in mini plastic toilet bowls. The toilet rolls that serve for wiping hand and mouth are hung above the tables, which resemble glass-topped jumbo bathtubs.”
It’s that scene from Buñuel’s The Phantom of Liberty!

Just the sort of thing that would’ve raised hell in the 60’s. Back when it was considered uncouth to show toilets even in t.p. commercials. Now they’re serving food in them.
Times HAVE changed. I wonder if this would take off in the US though. Or anywhere else for that matter.

What kind of fetish is this? You recreate the scenario of defecating to stimulate the appetite.

Oh lawdy. I don’t think I can eat noodles off a… bowl. Come to think of it.

was able to go to one Modern Toilet in HK. Their desserts are fun. Only that their actual toilets are very ordinary.
