Theme businesses

There has been a recent sprout of such service outlets especially in the Asian region. The latest one that is being built is a hotel in China. It is located in a cemetery, which is the basis for its death concept. The rooms are similar to vaults and the bed in them are coffin-like. There are no amenities like those found in normal hotels. Guests merely go to their rooms to sleep.

In Taiwan, there is a restaurant which has a toilet concept. The seats are shaped like toilet seats while the dishes which the food comes in are shaped like urinals. There is also another which has cells for the patrons to eat in, with bars to make them look like gaols. The third one is like a hospital where the drinks are served in bags with tubes attached to them, such that the patrons seem to be fed via intravenous drips. Unique or bizarre? Only time will tell.
