Food Inspired Architecture

Cafe Shaped Like Toast

As you many have noticed I am not a massive architecture fan from my current trends but when I saw this toast shaped cafe I thought it was one of the coolest buildings I have ever seen.

Best of it this inspired building can be found in Littlehampton - not of the UK's most popular seaside resorts. As such, naturally it has become known as The Toast of Sussex. The East Beach Cafe was designed by Thomas Heatherwick to look like slices of burnt toast in a rack. The menu on its website also looks amazing and I can't wait to try it for myself.
