A couple of weeks back I got word of a restaurant concept here in Taiwan. It’s Taipei’s “Toilet Bowl” resto. Oyster Sauce Pork Loin, Curry Chicken, mixed beans, fresh fruit and slush ice! MMMMM! All served in a ceramic toilet from YingGe!

Well it seem like the concept is spreading (excuse the pun).
Gaoxiung, not to be left out, is getting on the ‘honey wagon’ (http://www.city.vancouver.bc.ca/fire/glossary/Terms/honeywagon.htm) . They’ve got one with the ingenious name of Marton Restaurant (get it??? Ma Tong??? ) Curry Hot Pot, Curry Chicken Rice and chocolate ice cream! YUM!

And Gaxiong’s already opening new branches!!!
I’ve yet to eat a meal in either city but am anxious to use their facilities. Just hope they don’t get the two mixed up!
Novelty or ‘run a business’? You be the judge!
Tip of the ‘rim’ to Gabrielle for this one!

There was a Matong (although, I think it might have been spelled "Matone") in Taipei at least back in 2003. Somewhere near the Xinpu TRTS station.
They sold their novelty bowls, but not the full sized ones that they served food in.
