Last year in one of my classes, we read about the restaurant in Taiwan that was bathroom themed. The curry and hot pots are served still bubbling in mini toilet bowls, side dishes are served in squatters, and drinks are brought in tiny urinals. The seats are actual toilet seats with fancy designs on them (like the American flag) and the tables are large sinks with a sheet of glass to cover. You'd think that many people would lose their appetites at such a place ... probably because It wasn't very crowded ... but we thought the food was very good. On the menu, some of the dishes had little poo marks next to them. They were supposed to be spicy or recommendations or what I don't know.
I also met up with Josie and her friend Shirly ... it's kinda scary to see how many people there are around the world that share the same weirdness that Josie has. But it was a fun night. I ended it hanging out with Sheng at his apartment for about 2 hours, then talking to the Swiss guy in my hostel. He wouldn't stop talking so I just went to sleep ... Nice guy though
On a related note, when you go doo doo in Taiwan, you don't flush the toilet paper. There's a trash can next to all toilets and you just dump your used paper here. For some odd reason, there is absolutely no smell though.
