Eng Shan introduced me to this restaurant, prior to my Taipei trip and I went there with Rachel, Mark and Meiyen.
In this toilet-themed restaurant, the seats are all made from toilet bowls, not chairs. Sink faucets, wash basins and various toilet-related decors adorn the place. Currently they have a chain of 12 restaurants in Taiwan and one in Hong Kong. You can find out more about Modern Toilet via their official website.
Here are some pictures we took during our visit to their Ximending (西门町) branch:
