What’s worse than eating on a toilet? Eating from a toilet!
Taiwanese restaurant chain, Marton, took a twist on this bizarre idea, and featured toilets as seats and urinal-shaped lamps on the tables. What’s even more lovely are the mini-toilet bowls for serving the food.
The best sellers from their menu include curry hot pot, curry chicken rice and chocolate ice cream.
The chain was a hit in Taiwan since its opening in 2004, which made the owner, Eric Wang, open more branches few months later.
