That’s because the idiosyncratic eatery in Taipei, Taiwan features toilets as seating and serves their delectable goodies on [toilet seat plates](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/platoo-interactive-sensory-meal-plate). Paranoid hygienists need not visit. All seating at Modern Toilet Restaurant is differently designed, so a visit to the place will sate your love of Asian food and [eccentric furnishings](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/le-red-tiger). Tables are made of clear glass placed on top of tubs and sinks, and various quarters of the restaurant mimic varied public restrooms. There’s even a television in the eatery displaying animations of an humanoid piece of fecal matter peeing into a urinal. They may have taken the washroom theme a little too far, but no one can deny the restaurant’s creativity. Visitors should note that the toilet chairs are non-functional. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.4/10 - Popularity: 37% | Activity: 57% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Food](https://www.trendhunter.com/food) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Toilet-themed Restaurants:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Create unique dining experiences by incorporating unconventional themes into restaurant design. - **Eccentric Furnishings:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop unconventional furniture designs to create memorable and Instagramable spaces. - **Hygienic Dining Experiences:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Explore new ways to address hygiene concerns in public dining spaces. ### Where This Applies - **Food and Beverage:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Introduce unconventional dining concepts to attract novelty-seeking customers. - **Interior Design:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Design unique and immersive spaces that engage and captivate customers. - **Hospitality:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Create memorable and entertaining experiences for guests through themed accommodations and dining options. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Illuminated Public Artful Toilets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hiroo-east-park.md) - [Branded Bathroom Guides](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cashmere-ultraluxe-bathroom-guide.md) - [Lavatory Travel Guides](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/encycloopedia.md) - [Smart Toilet Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/smart-toilets.md) - [Artfully Sculptured Textured Toilets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-formation-02.md) - [Nostalgic Taiwanese Dining Experiences](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/taiwans-a-joy.md) - [Earthy Palette Fine-Dining Restaurants](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/logy.md) - [Enclosed Japanese Park Toilets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/toiletowa.md) - [Futuristic Intelligent Toilets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/intelligent-toilet.md)
