i really like reading the Guardian.
they have articles on budget eats in London.
and i am interested in Victorian era (1890~) underground public toilets like the ones in Melbourne. lol
(here's a bit of history on the public loo.)
so, check this out - Attendant - a cafe/restaurant located in a former public toilet on Foley Street in London.
you can eat whilst admiring ornate Victorian urinals. how cool!
the Guardian describes it as being almost "painfully trendy", if not for their simple and praise-worthy philosophy on food.
they source ingredients from independent and responsible farmers and make their own food in their kitchen.
not many places have public toilets on the street anymore. so i was quite surprised to see seemingly random public toilets at traffic junctions in Melbourne. but it does make sense - they were in areas with high volume of people, but those areas don't have fast food restaurants or shopping centers. otherwise, people have to go into actual restaurants and small shops, which have stricter toilet-use policies, i imagine.
