Quirky Taipei: Dining at the Modern Toilet Restaurant

Modern Toilet

Eating from a toilet bowl may not be your idea of fine dining, but it is certainly a one-of-a-kind experience.

Enter the bizarre world of toilet-themed dining at the Modern Toilet Restaurant in Taipei’s Ximending district!

Even from the entrance you get a sense of what to expect.

Love poo-poo!

Guests sit on actual toilet seats!

The glass-topped tables even feature toilet bowls underneath, complete with a “fresh” surprise inside!

The bathroom theme is everywhere—from the lighting and wall decorations to the washroom sinks.

Inside the Modern Toilet Restaurant

The food is served in dishes shaped like Western-style toilets, squat toilets, and urinals.

The food is in “toilet”!

Looks suspicious, tastes amazing.

Here comes my meal! The toilet-shaped bowl doubles as a mini stove, keeping the food hot throughout the meal.

Bon Appétit!

Time for dessert! A swirl of ice cream, perfectly shaped and colored to match the theme, is served in a miniature toilet bowl.

Don’t forget to visit the washroom and check out the mouth-shaped urinal!
