Fine Dining

To the guy who got the idea that a rotating restaurant at the top of a humongous tower overlooking the city would be a good idea: dude, what is your favorite movie? Have you ever tried to eat in your own restaurant? Is it your idea of romance to sit across from someone whose eyes keep flitting uneasily from right to left as they try to focus on your face yet keep getting distracted by the horizon rotating slowly beyond your head? In which particular medical products do you own stock?

Etc etc.

  1. I want a rotating house. On a hill. With a moat. And a boat. And a stoat with a lovely soft coat.

  2. Hey, does HTML work here? No, I suppose it doesn’t.

    This article

    is about revolving restauranta.
    “To begin to understand their appeal, one must now look to Asia, Africa, and the Middle East, where the revolving restaurant is still seen as a sign of progress–an emblem of prosperity, not kitsch.”

    That article also says:
    “More than 75 percent of the world’s restaurant turntables are made by the Danbury, Connecticut–based Macton Corporation.”

    It could be worse. It could be like, “Waiter, I distinctly ordered fish.”
    “Yes, sir.”
    “This has legs. See, four legs. And it is trying to speak.”
    “Pseudopods, actually, sir.”
    “No, those are distinctly genuine, albeit rudimentary, appendages.”
    “Well, this *is* an evolving restaurant.”

    I’d go to an evolving restaurant. And I’d pay more than a groat.

    So, you walk in to a nice chinese restaurant and walk out of a “haute cuisine” french one?

  5. My head is spinning. And it’s all I can eat.
