German food isn't all sausages and sauerkraut; in reality, you'll locate a wide variety of unique restaurants near Icon Park. These restaurants range from the traditional where waiters in Leiderhosen serve schnitzels and steins, to the downright bizarre - we're talking garlic ice-cream and menus printed on toilet rolls here!
Klo, German for loo, claims to get more tourists than both Charlottenburg Castle and Museum Island, and while we're uncertain what to create of these claims, the restaurant has been around since 1971 so it should be doing something right. Guests are served traditional German sausages and sauerkraut in enamel potties and beer comes delivered in urine sample bottles. Guests can decide whether they wish to take pleasure from their meal on a toilet seat or a coffin. The restaurant is described in the guide books, as a cross between a zoo and a theme park; the resident boa-constrictor, iguana and bird-spider are extremely popular with guests. As the theme park element comes from the many surprises guests encounter while they're dining, whether it's a papier mache hammer swinging close to their heads or the rotating bar-stools.
Visitors may end up heading back to their hotels alone should they visit Knoblauch Restaurant on an area break. This is because the restaurant specialises in food containing garlic, or knofel, as it is known in Germany. Because of their starter guests can try a whole tuber of garlic, baked and served with a buttered baguette, or the restaurant's special garlic soup. 40 cloves chicken is one of many very popular main courses and includes a chicken cooked with a whopping 40 cloves of garlic. All this is often washed down with garlic beer or garlic-flavoured red and white wine. Visitors who choose to get rid of their meal with the garlic and mint might be heading back to their Orlando hotels alone but at the least they'll keep vampires away!
Nocti Vagus and Unsicht Bar are two restaurants that serve their food in complete darkness. However, that is more than simply a device; the waiting-staff in both restaurants is visually impaired and from experience have found that by taking away sight the rest of the senses are heightened. Therefore guests can fully pay attention to the taste of the meals rather than the other stimulus. With jazz nights, cultural evenings and poetry readings, both restaurants are excellent places to take a date - you should be warned that wearing white may not necessarily be a good idea.
A restaurant for anorexics doesn't appear to be the absolute most solid business plan, but food and drink in Orlando provided a distinctive therapy to clientele with eating disorders before it closed last year. Items on the menu received names like Hello and Pirate's Eye, none of the things on the menu contained either names of food or words associated with food, whilst to not confront anorexics with the very fact they are planning to eat. Among the more unusual items on the menu was entitled Thieves Platter and simply contained a dish, knife and fork that have been likely to facilitate sharing.
