High-Concept Restaurant Bathrooms


Fat Guy

Zaytinya in DC.

Has wall mounted spouts that are a good foot and a half above the basins.

Stand to the side when you turn the water on or you are guaranteed to look like you did not quite make it to the restroom in time.

Everyone complains about these. :blink: All you have to do is turn the water on slowly and they're no worse than any other sink.

What I hate are the automated faucets that won't turn themselves on consistently, and leave you flapping your soapy hands around like some mutant bird attempting to make water appear.

Might this be considered "high concept" enough for this thread on restrooms?? :rolleyes:

not exactly discreet, you realize, but pretty nonetheless! :laugh:

Those are cool.

If I was opening a restaurant, I'd use them.

Hell, I'd probably change the theme of the restaurant to fit them.

Do any of you guys think the teeth are a little off-putting?

Really? A few of the guys I showed it to said they thought they'd have "trouble peeing" with their moral compasses pointing north when faced with big juicy open red lips smiling at them while they tried valiantly to urinate and think of England. :rolleyes:
