Villa Escudero Resort restaurant is built in the Philippines right at the foot of a waterfall
Thus, curious travelers can refresh themselves at the foot of a waterfall in the Philippines, taste a self-cooked steak in the USA, or relax in a lonely hut in northern Sweden. "Lenta.ru" examined the most unusual restaurants in the world that are definitely worth a visit.
St. Peter Stiftskeller (Austria)
The restaurant traces its history back to 803 - the first mention in the records of the monk Alcuin, a companion of Emperor Charlemagne, of St. Peter's Abbey in Salzburg, where the establishment is located today. Visitors can choose where to sit - in a luxurious Baroque hall with live classical music, a medieval cellar, or a new modern hall. According to legend, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart and Christopher Columbus dined here. The menu includes famous potato soup with bacon, lamb tenderloin in brandy sauce, and Tafelspitz beef with spinach. A pleasant end to the evening will be the dessert nockerl made from baked beaten egg whites.
Giraffe Manor (Kenya)
Twenty kilometers southwest of Nairobi stands the Giraffe Manor mansion. On the same estate, there is a giraffe rescue center. The animals roam freely and often peek into the restaurant windows. In addition, guests can feed the giraffes themselves, as they are not afraid of people. For this, special bags of food are provided.
Archipelago (UK)
According to the chefs of the Archipelago restaurant located in the very center of London, they want to turn every guest's visit into a unique gastronomic adventure. Dishes are prepared from zebra, bison, crocodile, kangaroo meat, but there is also a vegetarian menu. Would you like to try dishes made from locusts and crickets or mealworm larvae?
Le Relais Médiéval (France)
At the Le Relais Médiéval restaurant in eastern France, you will immerse yourself in the atmosphere of the Middle Ages. The dishes are prepared according to old recipes, and the decor and waiters' clothing are in the appropriate style.
Lentil as Anything (Australia)
The main concept of the Australian restaurant chain Lentil as Anything is to allow customers to pay for their meal as much as they deem appropriate. Dishes are served buffet-style, using organic products. The establishments located in Melbourne and Sydney often become venues for art exhibitions, film screenings, and performances by musical groups.
Rude Food (Sweden)
The first in Sweden (and perhaps in the world) catering and café using "rescued products." The chefs here cook from "ugly" vegetables rejected by supermarkets and other good products that would otherwise be thrown away for some reason. There is no menu in the café; everything depends on what was "rescued" today. All profits go to charity.
Perching Bar (France)
Not far from Reims, in the Champagne region, there is an unusual bar in a huge park. It is powered by solar panels. To enter the bar, almost entirely built from natural materials, guests have to climb a rope bridge. The reward is a beautiful view of the park.
Robot Kitchen (Japan)
Guests of this establishment may feel they have been transported to the future. The duties of hostesses and waiters are performed by robots - they greet visitors, take orders, transmit them to the kitchen using an infrared device, and carry trays around the hall.
Alexander's Steakhouse (USA)
Visitors are offered to choose any steak from 12 options to their taste and cook it themselves on the grill. In addition, guests can grill chicken breasts in teriyaki sauce, salmon, swordfish, langoustine tails, or pork chops.
Fäviken Magasinet (Sweden)
This restaurant, which is a small lonely hut lost in the hills of the Jämtland region in northern Sweden, has repeatedly been recognized as the best in the country. Not least thanks to chef Magnus Nilsson, a global gastronomic legend, a prominent representative of the "new Nordic cuisine." At Fäviken Magasinet, only local products are used, many of which are grown on site.
Villa Escudero Resort (Philippines)
In the Philippines, near the city of San Pablo, at the Villa Escudero Resort, there is a restaurant built right at the foot of a waterfall. Bamboo tables where guests sit are placed amidst the streams of water. Traditional Filipino cuisine is served here.
Dinner in the sky (UAE)
Visitors are offered to dine at a height of 50 meters - 22 people can sit at a special "flying" table. They are lifted to a height where they have lunch or cocktails with a view of Abu Dhabi. The meal lasts two hours, but guests can be lowered to the ground earlier if necessary.
