Would you go to dine in this place ?!




Modern Toilet is a Taipei restaurant


It accommodates 100 seats with 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 may resemble glass-topped jumbo bathtubs



and so on....










Bon Appétit !
Thanks Yogish

Akhil-Babu's letter to the Railway Department

Akhil Chandra Sen wrote this letter to the Sahibganj divisional railway office in 1909. It is on display at the Railway Museum in New Delhi. It was also reproduced under the caption Travelers' Tales" in the Far Eastern Economic Review.
"I am arrive by passenger train Ahmedpur station and my belly is too much swelling with jackfruit. I am therefore went to privy. Just I doing the nuisance that guard making whistle blow for train to go off and I am running with lotah in one hand and dhoti in the next when I am fall over and expose all my shocking to man and female women on platform. I am got leaved at Ahmedpur station.
This too much bad, if passenger go to make dung that dam guard not wait train five minutes for him. I am therefore pray your honor to make big fine on that guard for public sake. Otherwise I am making big report to papers."
Any guesses why this letter was of historic value?
