Original places to go out to eat
Dinner in the Sky
Have you ever imagined what it would be like to eat in a restaurant 50 meters high? Imagine this not inside a building, but in a floating restaurant, which is supported by a crane. Dinner in the Sky has been the result of the gastronomic company Hakuna Matata together with the attractions company The Fun Group.
For the safety of the diners, each of the chairs is secured at six points. In addition, the chairs can be moved from right to left. What’s more, they can also be converted into a bed – how about a little nap in the heights?
With a capacity for 22 diners, this floating restaurant offers menus worthy of haute cuisine, as well as musical shows. This is a new format that has innovated in the United States, Vienna, Canada, Mexico, and others.
Ithaa Undersea
Great restaurants are characterized by offering exceptional views of beautiful landscapes. The most luxurious are those located at great heights. But, how about a restaurant under the sea? This is what Ithaa Undersea offers: an exceptional restaurant with a spectacular view of the sea from inside. It is located in the Maldives.
This restaurant is located 5 meters under the sea and, without a doubt, offers an unparalleled experience by giving its diners the experience of being able to appreciate marine life in person without the need to wear a wetsuit.
Snow Castle
If you like the cold, you will surely love the Snow Castle, a restaurant literally made of ice, not only its structure, but also the tables. Undoubtedly it is a very original proposal from Snow Castle in Finland. Luckily, the food is not made of ice, unless you want a very cold drink.
However, because the tables are made of ice, it is important that diners eat quickly, unless they don’t mind their food getting a little cold. Of course, snow doesn’t last forever in Finland, so the entire restaurant must be built from scratch every winter.
Le Panoramic
When it comes to restaurants with the best views, it cannot be denied that Le Panoramic is one of the best. Imagine a spectacular view of Mont-Blanc, this is something diners will be able to enjoy on the France-Switzerland border.
To enter the restaurant it is necessary to use the cable car to reach the top of the Brévent Mountain, the place where Le Panoramic restaurant is located.
Sci-Fi Dine-In Theater
The Sci-Fi Dine-IN Theater restaurant is located in Orlando, USA, in the Disney theme park. Here, diners can enjoy the best style of the classic 50’s drive-in movie theaters. It also features the classic cars of that time. It is deal for those who want a retro dining experience.
Bizarre Bar, Hr Giger Museum Bar
If you want to go to a restaurant totally out of the ordinary, Bizarro Bar is definitely an excellent choice, since all its architecture and interior design is inspired by the movie “Alien, the eighth passenger”.
Located in Gruyères, Switzerland, this is without a doubt an experience that will seem to be from another world. Here, you can appreciate the walls and ceilings covered by skeletons, as well as the tables and chairs that seem to be made of bones. This is a truly innovative place.
The Green Dragon Pub
A team of 80 people were in charge of building this restaurant in an artisanal way, focusing on getting the smallest detail right in order to offer a hobbit experience to the diners.
Located in Hobiton, New Zealand, it is near the town of Matamata, which was built in 1998 to be the setting for the famous movie “The Lord of the Rings”. Undoubtedly, the “Green Dragon Pub” is the best option for fans.
The Devil
Located in Lanzarote, Spain, in the national park of Timanfaya, “El Diablo” is a restaurant whose peculiarity is that its food is made thanks to geothermal heat, that is, its famous steaks, skewers and drumsticks are cooked naturally thanks to the volcano that, at a depth of 15 meters, reaches a temperature of 600 °C.
It is an exceptional idea to take advantage of nature when preparing food through a sustainable stove. It is also a clear demonstration of the origin of its name.
