MODERN TOILET – Portland Street Hong Kong

Filed Under (China, Cuisines, Hong Kong, Shopping, Travelling, World Souvenirs) by Janet on 03-06-2008

After leaving Xu Liu Shan Desserts Store in Tung Choi Street near Ladies Street, Dear & I started walking around the bustling Hong Kong Streets. WOW WOW there were tons of people window-shopping & walking in the streets this very busy Sat night!!

The following is a Slideshow containing photos I took of the neon lighted up bustling Hong Kong Streets, followed by the Taxi ride Dear & I took to Portland Street :

We’d just arrived at Portland Street, & we were pretty surprised during this visit to Hong Kong cos we saw many Indian & Philippino visitors & workers!!

Well, Dear & I were here cos as I’d told you earlier, we had a very special Dinner plan for tonight!! Heheh!!

YES, we’d be dining in a MODERN TOILET on the 3rd floor of MPM Building!!

HEY HEY, dining inside a TOILET!??!?! You must be JOKING ha?!?!!

NOPE I’m NOT joking at all!!! We’d be dining inside A TOILET - a MODERN TOILET!!!

But well, it’s NOT exactly a TOILET, but a TOILET Restaurant heheh!!!

Modern Toilet Restaurant in Hong Kong 

Well, sometime before we went on our China Trip, Dear & I happened to see on a Singapore Channel TV programme broadcasting this MODERN TOILET Restaurant in Taiwan (based on a Japanese franchise), & we really fell in love with the concept!!!

 

And upon checking up on the Internet, I realised that there’s a new branch recently set up in Hong Kong too!!! I was very excited & found out more about its HK address & we were determined to be here, no matter what!!

We’re now at the Entrance of MODERN TOILET - Alamak!! There was already a long queue outside!!! We immediately notify the Waitress about our 2-seaters dining.

The time then was around 7.30pm!! Thank goodness Dear & I decided to be there earlier, or else we might end up at the back of a much much longer queue, cos the crowd kept coming non-stop!!

Youngsters & Elderly, Lovers & Family, many were already lining up & waiting outside MODERN TOILET while trying to look & peep inside at the really cool TOILET-themed Restaurant, & at the same time hoping that diners would finish fast & get out of their seats quickly!!!

And being a photography lover, I couldn’t wait any longer but started snapping photos of the Restaurant from its outside while waiting for our turn to be seated.

A look inside MODERN TOILET – NOTICE the TOILET BOWL SEATS on which diners were seated!??! Heheh told you earlier we’d a very special plan for dinner tonight!!!

Hmmmm, we were getting more & more excited as we looked on inside……then suddenly - “Hello Miss, it’s your turn now. Please come in.” – in Mandarin we heard from the Hong Kong Waitress as we were waiting & snapping photos outside MODERN TOILET.

Haha, Dear & I must be really lucky, we’d thought we could wait up a very long time to get to our turn inside the Restaurant!! But the truth was, we waited no less than half hour before we were called in!!

Hoorays Hoorays!! May be the Waitress knew we were Tourists & gave us special service, or may be we were just very plain lucky lucky heheh!!

I was hoping that our 2 Dinner sets would be served in 2 different colored TOILET BOWLS, cos there were actually PINK, WHITE & BLUE colored ones too!!

Unfortunately, both ours came in BLACK – but guess being served in BLACK colored TOILET BOWLS brought out the best presentations & aromatic fragrance of our Dinner Cuisines ha heheh!!
