Taipei, Taiwan – a city known for cuisine that overturns common sense and challenges convention.
There is no better representation of this than the popular chain restaurant Modern Toilet. A novel concept that couldn’t be described any better than its name, Modern Toilet offers a variety of poo-themed delights served in toilet-shaped dishes to emulate that exhilarating feeling of eating feces straight from the bowl.
I just happened to be in Taiwan when I heard of the restaurant and, unable to hold my curiosity in, made my way to Ximending, a shopping area popular with young people where the flagship store is located.
