Eat At This Restaurant While Fish Swim Around Your Feet

But with the age-old tradition has come an enormous number of restaurants catering to every cuisine imaginable.In order to attract customers, some unique restaurants have adopted unusual and just straight up weird practices to serve up once-in-a-lifetime experiences. Visiting these restaurants will make you forget all about the food. Lets get it on! CAFÉ IKAN Pet cafes where people pet cute dogs or cats while sipping their morning coffee have become hugely popular worldwide, but the Café Ikan in Ho-Chi-Minh-City Vietnam takes the concept to a whole new, and pretty weird level. This unique café is flooded in 25 centimeters of clear water through which hundreds of fish swim around the feet of patrons as they munch on their meal.If you’re thinking that nobody would ever go in there and let their shoes get ruined, you’re right: people have to remove their shoes and thoroughly wash their feet before entering.Still, the water is cleaned through a triple filtration system that replaces half the fish water every hour in order to maintain the pristine clarity that creates the illusion of the fish actually flying above the floor.KAYABUKI CAVERN If you thought robot waiters were the strangest sort of server, be ready to go bananas over the hair-raising staff of Kayabuki cavern,the only restaurant in the world with waiters of a different species.Here guests have their drinks and hot towels presented to them by a staff of monkeys.The fascinating part is, the monkeys weren’t originally trained to replace human workers, but instead they were wild and began imitating the original staff of the restaurant one day on their own.Many years later, they’re so fully integrated into the restaurant that they’ve become its main selling point! And how could they not be, after all you’re not going to be served by our primate cousins,or any other animal for that matter anywhere else in the world!The monkeys aren’t allowed to bring food to tables for health reasons, but the staff swears that they can understand orders perfectly.Plus, patrons are too busy marveling over the monkeys to begin with to care that a regular human is the one bringing over their actual meals.When not on the clock, the monkeys enjoy the soybeans they get paid in, just adding to the unusually human behaviors on display at Kayabuki Cavern.ROLLER RINK RESTAURANT Roller skating rinks were a staple of pop culture throughout the late 20th century, but since have largely faded into obscurity.

That is, except for this Hotpot spot in Xinqing China, where waiters masterfully balance full trays of food and drinks while gracefully gliding along the marble floors in retro roller skates.It takes some serious skills to get a job here, as most inexperienced skaters spend most of their time face planting into the ground, so imagine the ficulty of having to quickly deliver orders while balancing on wheels.Of course, this attraction brings in all manner of customers from around the world as this is a totally unique version of dinner and a show.SKYLODGE Many restaurants are considered high-end, but some restaurants, like the Skylodge in South America and angweng Restaurant in China take the term to a whole new level.Not for the faint of heart, these restaurants are the only 2 in the world dangling over the sides of cliffs.While the South American version came first, the Chinese Fangweng is a much larger and more luxurious take on the idea of building a glass structure right into the side of a cliff.The capsule near Cuzco known as the Skylodge doubles as a hotel and is made for adrenaline-junkies to experience what it’s like to stare down the side of a massive mountain from dusk till dawn.However Fangweng Restaurant is part of the much larger city of Yichang where all buildings are built along cliff sides, so aside from tourists, the regulars are quite used to the dropping view and likely have gotten over their fear of heights, literally.HAJIME ROBOT RESTAURANT Many dining experiences here are prohibitively expensive for the average person, but the Hajime Robot Restaurant in Thailand is both affordable and utterly unique.A Japanese barbeque style restaurant, the twist as the name suggests, is that the staff of this restaurant are robots!Not the scary Terminator types, but more the fun Chuck E Cheese types, with a dancing samurai robot gliding up and down the aisles to deposit orders to the tables of guests.At an average of roughly $15 for all-you-can-eat, Hajime is inviting to all and unlike any other restaurant you’ve ever seen.Guests order from touchscreens and aren’t just treated to dinner but also some top-quality live entertainment.Makes you wonder if in the future all restaurants will be staffed by such fun-loving robots.VILLA ESCUDERO ATERFALLS RESTAURANT The Villa Escudero encomienda-style restaurant tucked away in the Philippines is truly an unbelievable sight to behold.Hidden below the Labasin Falls, this jungle-themed restaurant provides guests from all over the world a dining experience they’re sure to remember.While conversations might be difficult when you’re right next to the roar of millions of gallons of water crashing down, there really isn’t much talking going on anyway as everyone’s mouth is agape in awe at the waterfall.Hopefully they’re not too worried about their meals getting splashed!DINNER IN THE SKY If you’re scared of heights, the idea of

dining while dangling 180 feet above the ground would probably be the furthest thing from a romantic night out for you, but for those with nerves of steel and a taste for gourmet adventures, Dinner in The Sky is exactly that.Giving a whole new meaning to the phrase pop-up-restaurant, this traveling restaurant lifts a platform

And while the view provided by this restaurant may be out of this world, you’d better make sure not to drop your fork or you’re not getting it back.GIRAFFE MANOR The Giraffe Manor located in Nairobi Kenya is a genuinely wild combination of safari and luxury resort unlike any other.Located on a massive track of land, the 10 room manor contains every luxury a hotel could offer along with some guests that no other hotel shares.As their name suggests, guests constantly interact with Rothschild Giraffes who love

to poke their heads in and get fed alongside the amazed humans inside.Giraffe Manor’s also teeming with hundreds of other exotic species of African fauna.While giraffes might seem scary with their towering height, the giraffes here are incredibly loving, even kissing the guests nice enough to feed them by hand.

the exotic Indian ocean above, providing a 270* view to accompany their meals.Guests are mesmerized by the bluish hue of sunlight filtering from above as tropical fish and sharks dance above their heads and right beside them.With seafood being the specialty of an undersea restaurant, you can’t help but wonder if the sharks are a bit jealous while the fish are relieved it isn’t them on the plate.ICE RESTAURANT Finland is a country that borders the arctic circle, making the people there accustomed to long, sunless winters and below freezing temperatures nearly year-round.With an environment like that, humans adapt and make the most of what they’ve got, and the Lapland Ice Hotel is certainly the very best.An intricately carved hotel made entirely from 400 tons of ice, freshly built every year when the temperature starts dropping, Lapland is a location unlike any other on the planet.Tourists brave enough to endure the bitter cold to experience the unique designs return every year to a brand new hotel, with brand new bars and restaurants inside to be amazed by how incredible the new sculptures and ever-changing architecture endure in such a challenging environment.Every new year brings a new theme, meaning the ice bars and ice restaurant feature new

themed drinks, décor and of course dishes every winter, meaning that a meal here is the very definition of a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
