There are restaurants in the world that take innovation to a whole new level. Or better say, extreme and bizarre level.

For some of those who dig “weird food”, there is an option for dining in a bizarre restaurant. If you want to be served by waiters wearing condoms, robots, or eating on the toilet, we present you the 10 restaurants that can make your dream come true.
